Property Description
At the heart of the home lies a large gourmet kitchen, designed to bring people together. With two walk in pantries, a wine fridge, and an ice maker, this space is as functional as it is inviting. Ideal for lively gatherings or quiet mornings by the fireplace. Just off the kitchen, the formal dining room boasts a tin ceiling and an ornate built-in speakeasy cabinet, complete with a hidden Prohibition-era compartment that whispers stories of another time. Step through the French doors and find yourself on a grand wraparound porch, where summer evenings and starlit conversations await.
The center hallway leads to a spacious sitting room, anchored by a massive Adirondack-style stone fireplace and a new wood-burning stove. Double French doors open to invite in the breeze or lead to the porch. There's also a dedicated office, a laundry room, and a private parlor that offers a quiet retreat that leads out to heated saltwater pool.
Upstairs, five bedrooms await. The prodigious primary suite offers an en-suite bathroom with claw foot bath and walk in closet which is rare for the era. Two larger bedrooms provide ample natural light and storage, while two cozier rooms mirror each other across the landing. Down the hall, a generous walk in linen closet with built-in drawers and cubbies adds to the home's thoughtful touches.
Recent updates include a new indirect water heater. The pool area, floating deck, and landscaping were designed and installed within the last two years. The property also features a new septic tank with an easy-access standoff.
Located just 59 miles from Manhattan, with easy access to both New Hamburg (7 miles) and Beacon (12 miles) train stations, this home offers the perfect balance of countryside serenity and commuter convenience. Just a short drive to Wappingers Falls, Poughkeepsie Galleria, and Newburgh Airport, it's ideally situated for both weekend escapes and year-round living.
