Schuyler Pond Home and Garden started in a proud old barn ...

Schuyler Pond opened in June 2000 in a grand repurposed barn in Saratoga Springs, NY. Opening a home furnishings store began as an idea from my desk in NYC during my early career as a beauty and lifestyle publicist.

Everything changed when I passed by a gorgeous property on Route 29 in Saratoga Springs. A stately Greek Revival sat next to a handsome old barn and it was love at first sight! Soon I was in the home decor business, with the property itself a constant source of creativity and inspiration.

It was there that I began mixing authentic decor elements, vintages, colors and textures with joyful styling to inspire beautiful every day living. Enchanting tabletops, layered coffee tables, signature sofa styling and curated mantelscapes made Schuyler Pond an esteemed shopping destination for 20+ years. This original location continues to be at the aesthetic heart of everything I love to do.

The Schuyler Pond Farm Studio

I now live as wildly as I dare on an 80-acre farm in Galway, NY with my son, Kellen (12), horses, hayfields, stone walls and another handsome post and beam barn. The Schuyler Pond Farm Studio location allows me to continue showcasing inventive styling, with a focus on antiques, vintage and garden. It is also an idyllic backdrop for sales throughout the year, so please join our mailing list to stay in the loop. As always, this "new" old barn, formerly my grandfather's workshop, will be filled with favorite things and unexpected finds. If you are not local, our online collection is for you!
