Property Description
Built circa 1845, this distinguished Greek Revival residence exudes timeless elegance, thoughtfully preserved and rich with original details. Set on an expansive 211-acre estate with land on both sides of a quiet country road, the property offers a rare combination of historic charm, modern comfort, and breathtaking natural surroundings.
The gracious home features 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 home offices, an inviting parlor, a formal dining room, and an eat-in country kitchen perfect for gatherings. A rustic and creative “wood room” offers a unique space for artistic and creative pursuits. Period details such as wide plank floors, clawfoot tubs, and built-in shelving reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era, while large windows bathe the home in warm, natural light and offer sweeping views of the surrounding landscape.
The land is a captivating mix of open fields, wooded forest, a meandering stream, and a picturesque beaver pond, creating an idyllic haven for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Thoughtfully designed stone and wood garden beds, extensive perennial gardens, impressive stonework, and an antique apple orchard reflect years of care and cultivation. Enjoy panoramic views from the stone terrace, or entertain in style in the two-story Party Barn, an ideal venue for celebrations and gatherings.
For added peace of mind and year-round functionality, the property is equipped with a whole-house generator, ensuring uninterrupted comfort and convenience, even during unexpected power outages.
Located just 3 hours from NYC and minutes from the charming Catskill Mountain villages, this lovingly maintained estate is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history, surrounded by natural beauty and designed for a life well-lived.
