Columbia County NY. A most idyllic circa 1740 farmhouse has been beautifully renovated over the years while retaining its important historical details. The 13+ acres are a mix of elaborately landscaped gardens, featured on The Nat'l Garden Conservancy Tour, open fields, rolling pastures & woodlands. To maximize your outdoor pleasure swim in the Taghkanic Creek, lounge & dine on the covered wrap around porch that steps down out onto a garden area with an antique fountain in the center. Pick fresh vegetables from your Organic Garden, pick your orchards apples, pears, peaches & plums & enjoy a hot outdoor shower after hiking or riding the trails. A new garage has just been added. There's also a chicken coop & a horse run-in shed. The home features 5 bedrooms, 3 tiled baths, Gourmet Eat-In Kitchen, wine cellar, formal dining room & a vast living room space with its original brick wood burning fireplace. Wonderfully located just minutes from Hudson NY & 2 hours from NYC. Truly unique.
