Property Description
The Long House at Sturgeon Pool An incredible turn-of-the-century stone home built c1900, The Long House sits on the bank of Sturgeon Pool, a breathtaking, swimmable reservoir connecting the Rondout Creek with the Walkill River. The home sits on over seven private acres with a swimming dock, walking trails & incredibly rare river access so you can spend the day kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply enjoy the calming view from the hot-tub. Built to take in the river view, the home sits lengthwise along the water with oversized windows spanning the entire facade. Inside, a complete renovation has transformed the home into a modern oasis and spectacular entertaining space. The formal entrance of double doors opens into a bright and expansive foyer with double-height ceilings. In the west wing is the Great Room, anchored by an enormous fieldstone fireplace and hearth that evokes a sense of family and fellowship. Light cascades through the walls of windows that are accented by original stone-work, providing a playful dichotomy between the primitive and the modern. At the east end of the house, the bright, open kitchen/living/dining area spans two levels that look out at the serene river view. The first level is completed by a guest room, den, office, laundry room and two bathrooms. Upstairs, there are three light-filled bedrooms and two full baths. The primary suite is found on the east end and offers a tranquil river view and a striking ensuite bath with freestanding soaking tub. Two guest bedrooms are found at the opposite end of the hall and share a stylish 4-piece bathroom. Outside, mossy trails meander down to the river’s edge where an off-grid, solar-powered, three-season cabin sits with a large screen pavilion, secluded on your own private peninsula. Retreat to The Long House, your private riverfront playground with room for all your friends and family. Located in the historic hamlet of Rifton, directly between Kingston & New Paltz and just 90min to NYC.
