AN ENDURING LEGACY OF ART ARCHITECTURE AND UNTAMED WILDERNESS There are places that awaken something dormant in us—where the hum of the forest becomes the heartbeat of a life well lived. Set on 280 acres of Catskill Mountain wilderness just over two hours from Manhattan, the Erpf Estate is such a place. At once a private sanctuary, a living museum, and a legacy of art and architecture, this singular property is a rare convergence of soul and scale. Steeped in more than a century of quiet stewardship, the land unfolds like a mythic landscape: two crystalline streams, over a mile of waterfront, ten miles of private trails, wide pastures, whispering forests, and ridgelines that rise to 2,270 feet. Despite its wilderness immersion, the property is thoughtfully developed—ready for refined mountain living, creative retreat, or conservation-minded expansion. Art is everywhere here. Over a dozen outdoor sculptures are integrated across the grounds, reinforcing the estate's deeply rooted artistic spirit. Whether used as a residence, foundation campus, or creative retreat, the Erpf Estate offers a rare kind of inspiration—one born from the land and carefully curated over generations. At its heart lies one of the most remarkable environmental artworks in the world: a 1,680-foot-long maze completed in 1965 by British sculptor Michael Ayrton. Towering stone walls guide visitors through a labyrinth where Ayrton's bronzes of Daedalus, Icarus, and the Minotaur stand watch. It is the only known maze of its kind built since antiquity—part myth, part monument, and wholly unforgettable. The 5,300-square-foot colonial-style main residence, originally built mid-century and restored in 2016, offers eight bedrooms and seven-and-a-half baths for large gatherings or quiet retreats. Expansive decks, wide lawns, and a cupola designed for reflection overlook sculpted gardens and forested hillsides. A beautifully restored 2,800-square-foot brick gate house provides three private apartments—ideal for guests, staff, or an artist-in-residence program. A semi-circular pond and moss-lined bluestone paths connect the buildings with a natural, almost sacred rhythm. Recreational amenities include a 56' x 24' heated pool with a 3,500-square-foot bluestone terrace, an 800-square-foot pool house with kitchenette and showers, a five-stall horse barn, tennis court, and polo stick-and-ball field. A rustic office cabin offers a tranquil work-from-nature setting, while a trout-stream pump house supports irrigation and sustainability. The land itself is a living canvas. Forty acres of lawns and meadows merge into 240 acres of mixed forest. Two year-round trout streams—Bush Kill and Dry Brook—meander through the estate, offering private swimming holes, fly-fishing, and vital wildlife corridors. Bald eagles, deer, wild turkeys, black bears, and countless other species thrive here, adding to the immersive wildness of the place. Free of conservation easements or deed restrictions, the estate offers exceptional freedom to build, expand, or preserve according to the next owner's vision. With several ideal building sites, including one overlooking the entry bridge and stream, the Erpf Estate invites creation of a multi-generational compound, creative sanctuary, or conservation retreat—one of the Hudson Valley's most significant properties.
