埃尔夫庄园
艺术、建筑和原始荒野的持久遗产
纽约州阿克维尔埃尔夫路390号 | 价值$10,000,000
坐落于280英亩原始的喀斯特山脉地形之中，埃尔夫庄园是一个独立的世界——一个自然、艺术和建筑交汇成独特体验的避风港。它不仅仅是一处地产，更是一个超过一个世纪深思熟虑的管理的缩影，由懂得土地蕴含着灵魂、规模和故事的世代所创造和保护。
距离纽约市仅2.25小时，这片无与伦比的庄园提供了完全的隐秘又不显得偏远。拥有超过一英里的溪流前沿、十英里的私人小径、草地、森林和高达2270英尺的全景山脊，这片土地为人们提供了令人惊叹的荒野沉浸体验——同时配备了为精致生活设计的基础设施。
庄园的核心是世界上最非凡的雕塑地标之一：最大石迷宫，它是英国艺术家迈克尔·埃尔顿创作的1680英尺长的环境雕塑。该迷宫于1965年完工，艺术家将其描述为“自公元前四或五世纪以来唯一的石制迷宫”，迷宫拥有高耸的墙壁和原创青铜雕塑的代达罗斯、伊卡洛斯和牛头人。全庄园中，十多座户外雕塑与景观无缝结合，回响着其深厚的艺术根基。
建筑的核心是一座全面翻新的5300平方英尺的殖民风格住宅，于2016年进行改造，以适应现代山地生活。住宅设有八间卧室、七个半浴室、广阔的甲板和露台，以及一个冥想穹顶，提供对正式花园、宽阔草坪和周围森林丘陵的壮观视野。苔藓环绕的蓝石小径和一条带顶的雪松楼梯从一个半圆形的池塘通向一座经过精美修复的2800平方英尺的砖砌客房，内设三个私人公寓，非常适合宾客、工作人员或继续用作创意静修所。
该庄园设施齐全，拥有多个增强其功能和潜力的附属建筑：
• 一个800平方英尺的泳池房，配有两个淋浴和小厨房
• 一个56’ x 24’ 的加热游泳池，配有3500平方英尺的蓝石露台
• 一个1440平方英尺的5头马厩和马球场
• 可容纳六辆车的车库
• 一个乡村办公室小屋和鳟鱼溪水泵房
• 一个准备重新铺设的Har-Tru网球场，可供网球或皮克球使用
• 有线和无线高速互联网以及全方位的安全和监控系统
• 中央木炉和准备好用离网太阳能供电的基础设施
土地本身是一个充满活力的潜力画布：40英亩的草坪、草地和牧场，240英亩的混合森林，以及两条全年流动的溪流——布什基尔和干溪，提供私人游泳洞、鳟鱼钓鱼，并作为重要的野生动物走廊。秃头鹰、鹿、黑熊、野火鸡和鳟鱼等众多物种在此繁衍生息。
未受保护区地役权或契约限制的约束，庄园提供了极大的自由度以扩展或发展。几个理想的建筑地点存在，包括一个在通往溪流的入桥附近。无论是作为私人避难所、多代同堂的合院、精品健康度假村，还是驻院艺术家计划，这片画布都是宽广敞开。
该物业附带十多座户外雕塑。全面的清单可根据要求提供。
埃尔夫庄园不仅仅是一个地方——它是一个稀有的遗产。
一个以愿景、关怀和想象力构建的世界。一个可以让人 retreat、反思、激励的地方——并开启一个历经一个世纪的遗产的新篇章。

The Erpf Estate
An Enduring Legacy of Art, Architecture, and Untamed Wilderness
390 Erpf Road, Arkville, NY | Offered at $10,000,000
Set across 280 acres of pristine Catskill Mountain terrain, the Erpf Estate is a world unto itself—a sanctuary where nature, art, and architecture coalesce into a singular experience. More than a property, it is the embodiment of over a century of thoughtful stewardship, created and preserved by generations who understood the rare power of land imbued with soul, scale, and story.
Just 2.25 hours from New York City, this unparalleled estate offers complete seclusion without remoteness. With over a mile of stream frontage, ten miles of private trails, meadows, forests, and panoramic ridgelines that rise to 2,270 feet, the property offers a breathtaking immersion into wilderness—balanced by infrastructure designed for refined living.
At its core lies one of the most extraordinary sculptural landmarks in the world: the largest stone maze ever built, a 1,680-foot-long environmental sculpture by British artist Michael Ayrton. Completed in 1965 and described by the artist as “the only one of stone since the 4th or 5th century B.C.,” the labyrinth features towering walls and original bronzes of Daedalus, Icarus, and the Minotaur. Across the estate, more than a dozen outdoor sculptures are seamlessly integrated into the landscape, echoing its deep artistic roots.
The architectural centerpiece is a fully renovated 5,300-square-foot colonial-style residence, renovated in 2016 for modern mountain living. With eight bedrooms, seven and a half baths, expansive decks and patios, and a meditative cupola, the home offers commanding views over formal gardens, wide lawns, and the surrounding forested hills. Moss-lined bluestone paths and a covered cedar staircase lead from a semi-circular pond to a beautifully restored 2,800-square-foot brick guest house with three private apartments, perfect for guests, staff, or continued use as a creative retreat.
The estate is remarkably well-equipped, with multiple outbuildings that enhance its function and potential:
• An 800 sq ft pool house with two showers and kitchenette
• A 56’ x 24’ heated pool with a 3,500 sq ft bluestone terrace
• A 1,440 sq ft 5 stall horse barn and polo stick and ball field
• Garages for up to six vehicles
• A rustic office cabin and trout stream pump house
• A Har-Tru tennis court ready for resurfacing for tennis or pickleball
• Wired and wireless high-speed internet and a full security and camera system
• Central wood furnace and infrastructure ready for off-grid solar energy
The land itself is a living canvas of potential: 40 acres of lawns, meadows and pasture, 240 acres of mixed forest, and two year-round streams—Bush Kill and Dry Brook—that offer private swimming holes, trout fishing, and serve as vital wildlife corridors. Bald eagles, deer, black bear, wild turkey, and trout are just a few of the species that thrive here.
Unencumbered by conservation easements or deed restrictions, the estate offers extraordinary freedom to expand or evolve. Several ideal building sites exist, including one near the entry bridge overlooking the stream. Whether as a private retreat, multi-generational compound, boutique wellness resort, or artist-in-residence program, the canvas is wide open.
The property is offered with over a dozen outdoor sculptures. A comprehensive inventory is available upon request.
The Erpf Estate is not simply a place—it is a rare inheritance.
A world built with vision, care, and imagination. A place to retreat, to reflect, to inspire—and to begin a new chapter in a legacy over a century in the making. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
