Property Description
A unique opportunity presents itself at 137 Plains Road in New Paltz, where grassy lawns, mature trees, and a serene, open atmosphere constitute 6.4 park-like acres set high above the Wallkill River with distant Shawangunk Mountain views. Passing from tranquil Plains Road down the long driveway, framed by leafy green branches of tall maples and hickories, you are transported to another time as the old farmhouse once called ''Bohemia'' comes into view. The white wood siding and green board and batten shutters typical of these century old homes remain, though the condition of the home has suffered from years of disuse. Peeking through lace-curtained windows, a simple 3 room floor plan is evident downstairs - a cozy living room with brick fireplace and fishing poles still hanging on the wall, a dining room with beadboard walls, and a kitchen with old enamel appliances and a barn light overhead. A turning staircase leads up to 3 bedrooms and a bathroom, with an attic above. Whether restored, salvaged in parts, or completely rebuilt, a substantial effort will be required to make a home here; but the setting certainly provides the spark for envisioning possibilities. The property is peaceful -- small outcrops of Shawangunk conglomerate dot the grass here and there, a tulip tree fans out its signature leaf shape providing shade, little woodland pathways beg to be followed, and patches of moss carpet the ground. Following the single-track trail down to the river, one finds a shale ledge on the river bank, a natural place to fish, launch a kayak, or just sit and watch the Wallkill lazily flow by. New Paltz is an ideal locale for enjoying and exploring the history, culture and landscape of the beautiful Hudson Valley. This home and property are sold as-is.
