Available for the first time in 25 years, this 1848 farmhouse is a rare find. Set back off the road on 4.47 acres, this country property includes a main barn/garage with hand hewn beams and hayloft, goat barn, two large chicken coops and a tractor shed. Mature plantings abound, with flowering trees and perennials throughout, and a 60x30 organic vegetable garden with 13 raised beds. The house offers 2,410 square feet of living space, with original wide-plank hardwood floors, exposed beams, and updated kitchen and bathrooms striking just the right balance between old-world character and modern comfort. There are 4 bedrooms and 2 full, updated bathrooms. Featuring a light filled living room with fireplace and wood stove insert, a formal dining room, a kitchen with beautiful mahogany counter tops, large family room, laundry and mud rooms. The spacious primary bedroom has cathedral ceilings and exposed beams. The home has ample storage with an attic over the addition and a full unfinished basement. There is truly a place for everything. The bones are great and the improvements to the home have been significant. Since 2018, the owners have invested thoughtfully and consistently: new roofs on both the house and the big barn, all new windows (26) throughout, a freshly painted barn with new gutters, and new garage doors. The interior basement walls were re-chinked and painted, new stairs were poured, and a new Bilco door, a custom insulated door, eco-conscious spray foam insulation in the rim joists, and a vapor barrier below the bedroom/office. The foundation exterior was re-chinked and dressed with real stone. A meaningful nod to the future, fossil fuels have been fully removed, replaced by six of the modern Mitsubishi high-efficiency air-source heat pumps and mini splits. A property like this, with so much history and so many recent improvements, does not come along often. Located with easy access to the Taconic Parkway and the Poughkeepsie Metro-North station, and just minutes from Vassar College, Marist College, the Culinary Institute of America, the setting is as convenient as it is beautiful. A must see to fully appreciate all this property has to offer. Please see Floor Plans & Virtual 3D Floor Plan tour.
