About This Home
As of January 2025Mallard Pond is one of Ridgefield's most distinguished country estates, beautifully situated on 5.71 pastoral acres that feature a scenic pond in a prime equestrian area, with nearby stables and riding trails. This architectural masterpiece, custom built in 2006, showcases a majestic blend of classical design elements influenced by five historic late 18th and early 19th-century Virginia plantation homes. Spanning approximately 10,000 square feet, this exceptional residence includes 5 bedrooms, 5 full bathrooms, and 2 half baths, along with luxurious amenities such as 7 fireplaces, a second-floor "Oak Room" bar, a separate meditation pavilion/studio, and a full apartment on the lower level with private entry. The gated entry is adorned with authentic gas lights, and the exquisite interiors showcase reclaimed cherry hardwood floors, plaster-cast crown moldings, and detailed paneling and trim work. The gourmet kitchen opens to a spacious family room with a cathedral ceiling, while the formal living and dining rooms, mahogany library, and conservatory provide ample space for entertaining. Upstairs, the master suite includes a sitting room, dressing area, and luxurious bath, along with three additional en-suite bedrooms and an office. The lower garden level features a recreation room, exercise room, and an in-law or au pair suite with a separate entry. Set against a backdrop of stone walls, meadows, and meandering brooks, the estate features a 50-foot heated saltwater lap pool with a spa and an electronic cover, alongside the picturesque natural stock pond that is home to the charming Mallard ducks for which the estate is named. Located just one hour from Manhattan and close to North Salem horse trails and farms, this estate is perfect for both full-time or part-time residence. With multiple patios and balconies, a whole-home generator, and smart technology throughout, including a Vantage lighting system, Mallard Pond offers a unique combination of elegance, luxury, and modern convenience.
