Tucked away on a peaceful hilltop just 7 minutes from the heart of New Paltz, this stunning 1930s Dutch Colonial has been completely reimagined—where old-world charm meets modern craftsmanship and curated design. Renovated from top to bottom by ANVO Construction with deep intentionality, this is more than a home—it's a legacy project. Set in Highland with New Paltz schools, it offers the best of both worlds: rural tranquility and easy access to restaurants, trails, Metro-North, and the Thruway (just 20 minutes to MTA and Amtrak). The main level features a warm, light-filled layout designed for both daily life and effortless entertaining: a ground-floor bedroom, a gorgeous living room with wood stove and custom built-ins, a dining room with exposed wood beam ceilings, a fully remodeled full bathroom, and an incredible sunroom that blurs the line between indoors and out. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated while maintaining the home's timeless charm. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms, a second fully renovated full bathroom, and a extra den/office that easily functions as a fifth bedroom. A walk-up third-floor attic serves as a creative playroom or retreat, complete with a climbing wall and chill-out zone. The basement is a woodworker's dream—fully dry, spacious, and already equipped as a full workshop. Inside, original character remains intact: ingrained hardwood floors, wood-paneled ceilings, and rich original moldings. Yet every inch has been thoughtfully modernized. Central heating and cooling, a hemlock-screened porch addition, fully insulated walls, and opened ceilings elevate the space without losing its soul. And then there's the barn. Dating back to the 1850s and now fully transformed into a year-round creative space, it's a rare Hudson Valley gem. With water, WiFi, electric HVAC, and a drain system already in place, it's primed for conversion to guest quarters or a private live/work studio. A new driveway leads directly to it for easy access and future flexibility. The grounds have been equally considered. Landscapers and permaculture designers regraded the land, added swales, planted over 30 trees, and uncovered three natural streams—creating a landscape that's both stunning and sustainable. This home wasn't built to sell. It was built with care, vision, and long-term purpose—over five years of thoughtful craftsmanship. Sunsets, mountain views, a flat lawn for play, and gardens ready to bloom—just minutes from Mohonk, rail trails, and all the best of the Hudson Valley. This is more than a property. It's a place to live, create, and build something that lasts.
