Property Description
Inside, the farmhouse is full of the kind of character that only a 160-year-old home can offer--high ceilings and windows throughout fill the rooms with natural light. The front door opens to a central stairway, flanked by a formal dining room on one side and a living room warmed by a woodstove on the other. Passing through either room leads into a wide central hallway: at one end, a side door opens to a porch, with a powder room tucked nearby; at the other end, French doors open into a second living space, ideal for lounging, creative pursuits, or as an office. In between, the hall opens onto a generous kitchen and additional dining area at the rear of the house. Off the kitchen, an expansive back deck looks out over the pond, fields, and forest beyond--an idyllic, quiet retreat for morning coffee or evening entertaining, wrapped in the kind of serene, unhurried scenery that makes this house feel like a true escape. At the top of the stairs, a den lined with built-in bookcases serves as the heart of the second floor, feeling like a private library made for hours of reading, with the bedrooms branching off from it. Three bedrooms share a full bath down the hall, while the primary suite offers its own ensuite bath and sweeping views over both the front and back of the property. Beyond its role as a historic residence, the property is built for flexibility. The 1,800-square-foot guest house offers 2 bedrooms with 2 full baths, an extra 3rd room, a half bath, and an open second floor well suited to an artist's studio, creative workspace, or extra guest quarters- ideal for multi-generational living or visitors who want their own space. On the opposite side of the property, reached by its own private driveway, sits a 1,092-square-foot bungalow with 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, original hardwood floors, and a woodstove. Fully separated from the main house, it's a natural fit as an income-producing rental, a caretaker's cottage, or a private guest residence. The land itself invites hands-on use as much as quiet enjoyment: raised-bed gardens offer real potential for hobby farming, while a separate driveway on the far side of the property leads back to a classic wood barn and a 3,000-square-foot metal barn--distinct from both the main house's and bungalow's driveways, and ready for equipment, workshops, storage, or whatever use the next owner might dream up. Ideally located just a few minutes from the center of Germantown, 10 minutes to Tivoli, and 15 minutes to Hudson, this property offers the rare combination of pastoral privacy and easy access to the surrounding Hudson Valley towns. Altogether, this is a property built for both privacy and possibility: a historic main residence, two additional dwellings for income or guests, a pond-view deck, and acres of field, garden, and forest to make your own.
