WEST HILLS

78 Mount Misery Rd.

$1,399,900

Surrounded by 900 acres of woodlands with hiking and bridle trails, this sprawling, 4,100-square-foot ranch is set on 2 acres. "It's a nice, quiet area. You almost feel like you are upstate," says the listing agent. Fully landscaped, the treed property boasts a lake-style gunite in-ground pool surrounded by brick pavers and a cabana, while the rear patio with a built-in barbecue is prime for grilling. The yard is illuminated, so the fun can continue after dark. Since the house has so many windows, the outdoors come right inside, says the agent, noting this is especially true from the climate-controlled solarium. Other interior features include three fireplaces, some marble floors and recessed lighting. There are four bedrooms and 3 1/2 bathrooms, including the master suite with a Jacuzzi tub. Amenities include central air-conditioning, a partially finished basement and an automatic propane whole-house generator. Glenn Helder, Tidemill Enterprises, 516-244-0566
