Rolling rural countryside that’s one hour from Manhattan—yet worlds away.

Technically, the town of Bedford is made up of three hamlets that share a local government and police department: Bedford Hills, Katonah, and Bedford Village. The latter is the heart of Bedford, with its winding roads (many of them dirt), picturesque horse farms, and country estates.

This village of about 2,000 has a small stretch of shops and restaurants and older homes on relatively small lots. As you venture out, you’ll see a lot more breathing room between residences plus an abundance of open fields, tree-lined roads, and stone walls.

The Lifestyle: Easy, breezy, and all about being in nature.

Neighbors love to picnic together on the Village Green and meander down the Indian Hill walking trail. There’s also the impeccably maintained Bedford Village Memorial Park, complete with pool, and the stunning Bedford Golf and Tennis Club, which has roots back to 1891.
