The serene, gracious setting of Black Hole Hollow Farm in a quiet valley on the border of Vermont and New York is threaded by the White Creek brook, tiered ponds and 30 miles of trails on 440 +/-acres. The five-bedroom, 8,143-square-foot main house is surrounded by English-style country gardens with the mountains as backdrop. The original 1772 farmhouse was expanded and designed by noted architect Jerome Cerny. Living room, dining room and downstairs bedrooms all open to the gardens and the recently updated kitchen is a welcoming hub with its AGA stove. A two-bedroom attached guest house provides additional space. The farm has a rich history of owners and guests. Former owner Josephine Hartford Bryce, heir to the A&P supermarket dynasty, a philanthropist, sportswoman and musician hosted many notable people at the farm including author Ian Fleming who gained inspiration for several of his James Bond books. Nestled among the gardens is a greenhouse with octagonal sitting area and Koi pond. There are three post & beam barns, greenhouse, outdoor pool, stocked fishing ponds, sugar house and miles of carriage trails. Black Hole Hollow Farm is located just 7 miles from Cambridge, NY, 30 miles to Saratoga, and 26 miles to Bennington, VT.
