Built in 1780 as the first homestead of the Mead family, Elmdon is a pillar of Waccabuc charm. Set on open land and thoughtfully restored to retain its original millwork, fireplaces, and character, the estate offers a refined take on historic country living.
What began as a teenager with a kit car has evolved into a decades-long pursuit for Bob Torre - and turned into a shared passion with his wife Renee.

One of the preeminent private collectors of Georges Braque, Régis Krampf brings both his remarkable collection to the Bruce Museum and his next chapter to Pound Ridge. Régis offers a rare and close-up look at the artist known as the Father of Contemporary Art.
