Kern Dr, Ghent, Home For Sale

The Envelope House at Fern Hill is an early case study in passive building, sited on just over five wooded acres overlooking the iconic Hawthorne Valley Farm, about halfway between the Hudson River and the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains. The home is sprawling in nature and contains a multitude of environments for living, creating, utility and play. Each carefully weighed design decision was made in the pursuit of living in harmony with the natural surroundings and elements, which can be felt throughout the property. The gathering spaces are generous in both size and warmth, all southern facing to achieve the most magnificent capture of natural light throughout the day. Should you need additional or separate space, a two story garage with a loft offers many different possibilities. Days on end can be spent in activity without ever leaving Fern Hill. Summer peacefully unfolds just down the private trail on a sparkling spring fed lake, shared only with two other homes, or on the communal Fern Hill pond.
