► Brad Reifler, founder and CEO of Forefront Capital and
former co-founder and chief executive of Pali Capital,
is selling Sky Blue Farm, his 145-acre equestrian estate
in the heart of Millbrook, New York for $23 million.
The property is considered one of the jewels of the
majestic Hudson Valley.
3. ► According to Mr. Reifler, the name of the estate is
derived from a saying he tells his children, “In life
there's always gray, so find the patch of blue.” With
striking vistas, complete privacy, and world-class
recreational facilities, the beautifully maintained
property is unrivaled in its scope and beauty offering a
wide array of recreational and sporting activities in a
bucolic rural setting.
6. Features
► The estate features a total of 13 bedrooms and 19
bathrooms throughout. Although classical in style and
inspiration, modern comforts and 21st century
technologies abound. Magnificently rendered with
painstaking detail throughout, the grand Colonial boasts
9,100 square feet on two main levels and an additional
4000 square feet on the lower level.
7. ► Exceptional recreational facilities on site include a
swimming pool, tennis court, sporting field, skating
rink, motocross track, state of the art home theater,
gym, spa and a full-size indoor basketball court. For the
equestrian, the 18-stall barn is accompanied by a 20,000
square foot indoor ring and 2 additional outdoor rings.
8. ► A 3200 square foot guest house, carriage barn with staff
quarters, caretaker's house and equipment shed
exemplifies the best of country living in a truly sublime
setting.
► “Sky Blue Farm is a remarkable estate and a welcome
respite from the frenzied pace of life in New York
City,” says Bradley Reifler. The property is listed by
Adam Hade at Houlihan Lawrence and showings are
available by private appointment only.
9. ► The charm of the village of Millbrook is no longer a
secret shared by the privileged few. Millbrook has a
host of popular attractions for residents and weekend
visitors, including the critically acclaimed Millbrook
Vineyards & Winery, Innisfree Garden, Cary Institute
of Ecosystem Studies and the Orvis Sandanona.
“Millbrook is one of the most beautiful small towns in
the picturesque Hudson Valley,
