Located by Queechy Lake, the home is situated on 75 acres of conserved land and exudes classic farmhouse charm. Arrive at a generous front porch that frames the home's façade. Enter through a half-lite door into a center hall. Wide-plank wood floors run the length of the entry and lead to another half-lite door, allowing light to flood the space while connecting you to the outdoors. To the left, a gracious living room sits at the heart of the home. Exposed beams span the ceiling. The dining room lies adjacent and features vintage floral wallpaper. Both rooms lead to a country kitchen where beadboard cabinets and a corner cupboard add classic old-world charm. A door with arched glass panes leads to the front porch and contributes an air of elegance to the space. Beyond the kitchen, a modern addition incorporates a large four-season room flanked by windows that bathe the space in warm sunlight. A rec room, perfect for various pursuits — hello yoga / art studio! — features a full bath and laundry alcove. Returning to the center-hall, one finds a large ground-floor primary bedroom featuring a spacious walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom. Climb the lovely staircase to a generous second-floor landing where four bedrooms share two full bathrooms. Outside, a detached two-car garage includes additional space for a workshop. Not far, a classic red barn offers endless possibilities for gardeners, artists and entertainers. Paths beyond the garage and barn lead to one's own private sanctuary of 75 wooded acres. A conservation easement with Columbia Land Conservancy ensures the continued protection and stewardship of this parcel for future generations. All of this — just a stone's throw from Queechy Lake and minutes to Main Street Chatham — makes Whitings Pond Farmhouse an idyllic rural escape for all seasons.
