Rural without the isolation, Bedford is where the suburbs meet the country. The intersection of rustic and modern, the charm of this Northern Westchester town isn’t confined to a downtown center with a strait of shops. Instead, it’s stumbling upon an organic farm shop slinging mason jars of house-grown strawberry daiquiri mix for Venmo payments, or a modern taqueria tucked into the green and gold marbling of the trees that frame it. Bedford’s ancient village green hosts a blink-and-you’ll-miss it two-block town, but it counts a theater among its humble stretch of businesses, where you might spot a celebrity or two laying low amidst its red brick sidewalks, golf links and expansive network of equestrian riding lanes. Winding backroads weave drivers to its larger, trackside villages of Bedford Hills and Katonah, with modest farmhouses, exquisite estates and ivy-dressed cottages trailing off the sometimes-paved streets in between. Metro-North’s Harlem Line has stations in both, and nearby Mt. Kisco adds bigger-box conveniences of all sorts.
