Explore this captivating 24.68-acre retreat in East Chatham, New York, where a private drive leads to an idyllic blend of historic charm and contemporary elegance in an 1825 farmhouse. Featured in Domino Magazine this designer home is nestled amid rolling pastoral valleys, dense woods, and a gently flowing stream, the property unfolds with sublime gardens, a unique heated in-ground pool sanctuary framed by two striking giant silos and an antique dairy barn with soaring ceilings—creating an enchanting escape for reflection and cherished moments, conveniently accessible to the Taconic Parkway, Hudson, and the Berkshires. This post-and-beam Colonial farmhouse, built in 1825, offers approximately 3,030 square feet of thoughtfully designed space with three bedrooms and three full bathrooms, featuring clapboard and wood siding, sheetrock walls, and versatile rooms that seamlessly connect to the outdoors. Meticulous attention to layout and materials maximizes natural light through casement and double-hung windows, illuminating a bright chef's kitchen that flows into formal dining and living areas. A separate cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace adds romantic allure, while the upper level includes a sumptuous master suite with its own wood stove, two additional guest bedrooms, a full bath, and a dedicated office/den wing—ideal for work or relaxation in this dreamy, light-filled haven. Essential modern upgrades ensure effortless living, including a new septic tank, electric water heater, advanced water filtration system, Kohler generator for reliable power, and comprehensive landscaping enhancements. The forced-air heating system, powered by propane with central air conditioning throughout, pairs with a private well, 200-amp electrical service, and all included appliances (dishwasher, dryer, range, refrigerator, washer, and more) for dependable comfort. The dirt basement provides practical storage, a durable shingle roof offers protection, and the dairy barn's new metal roof, along with an integrated sauna and security system, elevates functionality and peace of mind. The sprawling grounds beckon with panoramic valley and stream views, rural seclusion amid wooded expanses and pastures, and rich soil perfect for expanding the existing gardens or hosting gatherings on the deck, patio, porch, or terrace. The pool area, set dramatically against the silos and barn, serves as a one-of-a-kind oasis for summer escapes, complemented by the property's stone foundation and other stone/tile flooring for enduring style. Proximity to cultural treasures like Olana State Historic Site's landscapes, Catamount Mountain Resort's slopes, Beebe Hill State Forest's trails, Art OMI's outdoor sculptures, Crandell Theatre's performances, and Hudson's eclectic shops and dining makes this a perfect base for upstate adventures.
