Pawling is nestled amid the Hudson Highlands, about 70 miles north of New York City. A charming community of around 7,500 people, Pawling makes an ideal place to purchase a home to enjoy during all four seasons. Recreational opportunities abound with the many lakes and trail networks, most notably the famous Appalachian Trail which winds through Pawling on its way to points north. The Oblong Trail Association, created to encourage horse riding and nature walks, preserves and maintains the Oblong Trail in an effort to conserve the beauty of the land. This area of Pawling, known locally as Quaker Hill, is much sought-after by homebuyers for its endless views and unmatched beauty.
The town’s origins date back to the early 1700s and was founded by the Quakers; their original Meeting House, built in 1764, still stands today. Pawling is also the location of America’s oldest public golf course, the Dutcher Golf Course. A delightful community with a rich history and unparalleled natural beauty makes Pawling a desirable place to live.
