Property Description
Set amidst 10 acres of lush fields with breathtaking views of the Catskill Mountains, this beautifully renovated 1744 Dutch Colonial blends historic charm with modern convenience, featuring a spacious 3.5-bedroom, 2-bathroom center hall home with stunning hand-hewn beams, wide-board floors, and a seamless integration of modern technology. A ground-based solar array offers significant savings on electric bills, paired with a Powerwall automatic battery backup to ensure reliability during power outages. Two Level 2 EV chargers are also included for electric or hybrid vehicles. The entire home is heated and cooled by new Mitsubishi heat pumps with individual thermostats for each room, while a traditional furnace and radiators remain in place for added comfort. The fully renovated kitchen boasts new Anderson casement windows, custom cabinetry, and a cozy, high-efficiency woodstove. The living spaces exude old-world charm, with built-in bookshelves and a full bath on the main floor, bathed in natural light. Upstairs, the renovated bath includes a luxurious 6-foot Kohler heated jet tub and vintage Fornesetti wallpaper. Exterior upgrades include new soffits, gutters, fireproof Hardie Board siding (no painting required), and a custom artisan-built standing seam metal roof with a copper Yankee gutter. A wrap-around screened porch provides a peaceful spot to dine, entertain, and enjoy the perennial gardens, with both sunrise and sunset views. The home is also equipped with a French drain system, sump pump, stone foundation, and high-quality insulation for long-term comfort and efficiency. The remarkable 3-story barn is a standout feature, showcasing hand-hewn beams throughout. It includes new 200-amp service, buried power lines, and a separate studio space with two stories of windows and a loft, ideal for artists or as an additional seasonal living area. The property also features a spring-fed pond. Located just minutes from Greig Farm, Bard College, the Hudson River, and Clermont State Park, as well as Germantown, Tivoli, and Red Hook with their excellent dining options. With over $200,000 in recent upgrades — including a $40,000 roof, a $60,000 solar array with Powerwalls, and a $70,000 kitchen renovation — this home is truly move-in ready. The sellers, who have invested in long-term, top-quality improvements, are relocating closer to their children, offering you the rare opportunity to own a piece of history in one of the Hudson Valley's most desirable locations.
