Public Remarks: 1814 FEDERAL FARMHOUSE WITH MODERN ADDITION ON 19 ACRES Down a long driveway off picturesque Forest Glen Road sits this special homestead, full of history and craftsmanship. Composed of over 19 acres of open fields, lawn, and woodlands, the parcel is mostly level, offering a "top of the world" feel. The downward slope to the west affords a lovely view of the Shawangunk Ridge. Among the mature trees and lush perennial plantings, there are many little places on the property that create outdoor vignettes--the stately oak trees flanking the drive, the formal hedge of boxwood in the front, the mossy back patio shaded by a quince tree, a romantic stand of evergreens, sunshine reflecting off pool water. The home itself, an 1814 farm house with a modern addition, is clad in wood siding painted a perfect greige, topped with a galvanized roof, and trimmed with matching galvanized half-moon gutters and downspouts. The old and the new are seamlessly connected. Inside the original house, hand-built details include original red pine floors, floor-to-ceiling built-in cupboards, 3 handsome fireplaces, 2 dutch doors, many original paneled doors, twelve-over-twelve paned glass windows, and an elegant period staircase banister. The kitchen is streamlined and functional with soapstone counters, island cooktop, Sub-Zero fridge, built-in pantry, and two sets of french doors to the patio. Right off the primary entrance there's a staircase to a perfect little guest suite with a modern bathroom. Built-in bookshelves line the back wall of the cozy library, which leads into the large dining room with a unique wood mantel over the grand fireplace. Off the spacious center hall is a useful laundry room, powder room, french doors to the addition, and the main staircase. On the second floor there are two large bedrooms with fireplaces, one currently used as an office and another with a generously proportioned ensuite bathroom, also accessible from the hall. The third floor has two more bedrooms and a full bath. The high ceilings and a whole-house fan keep the house airy and cool. The addition to the original home feels like a modern retreat--a space specifically designed to invite relaxation, clarity, and a connection with the outdoors. Warm wood, exposed steel beams, and expansive glass window walls are found throughout the floor plan, which includes a living room, bar, screened porch, elevated master suite with balcony, and ground-level study. The living room's oversized sliding glass wall can be opened to the back garden in summer. In winter, a brick-lined fireplace with blackened steel surround offers cozy comfort while the snow falls. The master bedroom's custom headboard and built-in shelves were crafted from cherry trees on the property, and the space is perfectly situated to take in views from the bed, the adjoining balcony, and even the ensuite bathroom, which has both clear glass for views and shaded glass for privacy. Downstairs there's a study/den and half-bath perfect for work-from-home or just relaxing. Built in shelves, cabinets, and closets minimize the need for furniture and keep sight-lines clear in this minimalist haven. In addition to the backyard inground pool, there is an indoor resistance swimming pool and gym housed in the 1-car garage building. With careful attention to detail in both the preservation and construction of beautiful spaces, this home and property present a rare opportunity to have the best of old and new. Set amongst local farms and farmland, this ideal location is just 6 minutes in either direction to downtown New Paltz (north) and Main Street Gardiner (south).
