Description

Perched high on a bank above the Rondout Creek on a quiet country road, this little antique farmhouse is as picturesque as they come! Original detail survives throughout & includes wonderful old wideboard floors, wainscoting, old-fashioned doors & hardware. Large living room & eat-in kitchen creates a sense of spaciousness despite the small footprint and the kitchen door opens to a wonderful, big side yard that calls to both the young & the-young-at-heart to run & play! The view of the Creek behind...Perched high on a bank above the Rondout Creek on a quiet country road, this little antique farmhouse is as picturesque as they come! Original detail survives throughout & includes wonderful old wideboard floors, wainscoting, old-fashioned doors & hardware. Large living room & eat-in kitchen creates a sense of spaciousness despite the small footprint and the kitchen door opens to a wonderful, big side yard that calls to both the young & the-young-at-heart to run & play! The view of the Creek behind the house is expansive and the total picture is worthy of a storybook. Interior is freshly painted, septic has a concrete tank that was pumped & inspected in December. Boiler was also serviced just before the heating season. A new owner could move right in & have everything needed, but the quirky character of this house might very well inspire creative ideas for artful renovation to further enhance its charm & comfort.
