ern Hill is located in one of Bedford’s finest estate areas with seasonal views of the Pound Ridge Reservation. A long, gated drive leads to the pri-vate hilltop setting. The property is comprised of nearly 15 breathtaking acres meticulously planned by leg-endary landscape architect James van Sweden of Oehme, van Sweden & Associates. Natural rock escarpments marry with cascading pools and a three-tiered pond. Granite stairs and rock paths wind through sweeps of specimen shrubs and perennials con-necting the main buildings. One of the paths leads down to the heated, gunite pool. Landscape lighting, an irrigation system, a pump system for the ponds, a driveway enunciator and deer-fencing are additional improve-ments. There is a perfect site for a tennis court off of the pool area.
