1) Built in 1780, this house was entirely renovated only five years ago. It is unusual to find a house--in Millbrook, anyway--of this pedigree that feels "modern" inside, with large, open rooms and a freshly built, light-filled feeling.
2) The "footprint" of the greater Millbrook area is perhaps 40 miles across.... and much of the area is well over two hours from NYC even in favorable traffic. Set in the most beautiful and prestigious section of South Millbrook, Tatankaska Farm is only 82 miles from Manhattan's Upper East Side--a 1 hour and 45 mins. drive in moderately good conditions, less than that on weekends or at night, and under two hours with all but very bad City traffic.
3) We are less than 5 miles from the Metro North train station at Dover Plains--a convenient and inexpensive trip from Grand Central or Harlem/125th St. stations on the East Side of Manhattan.
