Perfectly sited in the seclusion is an enchanting 1944 stone and frame 3/4 bedroom, 1.5 bath county home. The property has been owned by only two families since colonial times. Enjoy your beautiful stone fireplace in the living room, a formal dining room and a sun filled kitchen with French doors leading to the deck overlooking the tranquil pond which attracts an abundance of wildlife including herons, ducks and bald eagles to name a few. For your convenience the main floor has 2 bedrooms and a full bath, the second floor has a third bedroom, den and half bath. If you are still in need of more space the oversized detached garage has a loft area perfect for an office or studio. If you are a wine connoisseur the walk out basement features a wine cellar. The surrounding area provides unlimited entertainment. Located minutes to Resnick airport, numerous restaurants and the Shawdowland theater. Less than a mile to the Rondout reservoir where you can place a boat and enjoy fishing. A short drive to Frost Valley and fly fishing. Scenic country roads for cycling. This is truly a nature and sport enthusiast paradise. Or If you prefer stay at home on your own 214 acres with a glass of wine and watch the wildlife from your deck. The privacy here is bountiful with an adjoining 18 acre buildable parcel of land included in the sale that offers road and stream frontage. Additionally, all the neighboring parcels are 200 plus acres in size to further secure the natural beauty of the land. Outdoor activities are plentiful, with hiking trails throughout the property and hiking, fishing, cross country skiing, hunting and snowmobiling just a few steps from your back door. All of this and you are still an easy 2 hour drive from NYC, making this ideal for a weekend retreat.
