Peaceful Light-Filled Guesthouse 1 Hour From NYC | House in Pound Ridge
3 Bedroom House in Lewisboro, Pound Ridge
Step into a peaceful, well-appointed home nestled on 14 acres of ancient trees, stone walls, and meadows in Pound Ridge, NY. This light-filled guesthouse is designed for relaxation, with a heated saltwater pool available in summer, sunbathing under a majestic maple tree, and evening stargazing by the outdoor fire pit. Perfect for families, small groups, or couples seeking a peaceful nature retreat.
Located in Westchester County, our renovated guesthouse is part of a historic 200-year-old dairy farm, cherished by the same family for over 11 generations.
Inspired by travel and the concept of slow living, our guesthouse provides a tranquil escape—a place to pause, enjoy simple moments, and immerse yourself in nature's wonders. Whether relaxing by the pool on hot summer days, enjoying the vibrant colors of autumn by the fire pit, or sledding on snowy hills in winter, each season offers its unique charm.
We feel privileged to care for this natural beauty and are grateful to share it with our guests. We hope you find it as special as we do.
