Striking eastern mountaintop views and an inviting open floor plan offer the perfect venue for entertaining. Rooms flow seamlessly from one to the next with several sets of French doors on the main level leading to an expansive deck that runs the length of the house and overlooks the beautiful country setting with glorious sunrises. Meticulously maintained and updated, with rock maple flooring throughout the main level and three fireplaces, including one combination fireplace/grill in the kitchen and a Belgian Wittus fireplace in the vaulted family room. The gourmet kitchen offers an oversized granite island, chef-style range, multiple pantries and food prep/wet bar. The upper level opens into a loft/office space with vaulted ceiling and serene views and adjoins two charming bedrooms. A separate stairwell leads to an artist studio space, with full bath, that can easily serve as a separate inlaw suite. Professionally landscaped gardens (including a raised bed vegetable garden) with standout specimen trees, shrubs and plantings, surround the property. A pea gravel and Belgian block forecourt sets the stage for a captivating home full of charm and character. Tasteful and stylish - a beautiful country home for full time or weekend use. Just 90 minutes from Manhattan and 15 minutes to Metro North trains.
