ICE POND FARM, EST. 1789 - "Arguably, this is one of the most bucolic properties in the Northern Hemisphere, and to that point, living here at the edge of the great pond, surrounded by meadows, your mountain ridge, trees and Hudson River views, offers the most therapeutic setting imaginable." -E Frost...... CIRCA 1770... As President George Washington's term began and ice was being delivered on a routine basis to Manhattan from an "ice pond in upstate Stony Point," we heard about this charming farmhouse being built. As we made our way to Stony Point by horse and carriage, "a trip of long duration and endless trails and ruts," 29 miles north of Manhattan, our excitement was bursting over; we always have sought such a residence with pastures of hay and barns for our horses... a 12+ acre family estate with a large 2 acre pond at our footstep, this was just the dream. Upon arrival, we are greeted by The Baisley Family, proprietors of "Ice Pond Farm" and owners of Baisley Brothers Purveyors
