Property Description
Welcome to Windswept Farm--offered for the first time in nearly 70 years. Set on over 18 picturesque acres, this extraordinary country estate captures the timeless beauty of the Hudson Valley with breathtaking panoramic views of the Catskill Mountains, rolling meadows, and endless open skies. Rich in history and character, the expansive five-bedroom, three-bathroom farmhouse showcases wide-board hardwood floors, multiple fireplaces, and gracious living spaces filled with warmth and charm. A separate in-law apartment offers exceptional flexibility for extended family, guests, or potential rental income. Outside, mature plantings surround the home, while a substantial pole barn provides ample space for farming, hobbies, equipment, or storage. A standby generator adds peace of mind, ensuring year-round comfort. Privately situated on a quiet country road, Windswept Farm offers the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience. Ideally located just minutes from Hudson, the Berkshires, and Art Omi, you'll enjoy easy access to acclaimed restaurants, galleries, cultural attractions, and outdoor recreation. Whether you're dreaming of a working farm, equestrian property, weekend retreat, or a remarkable full-time residence, this rare offering presents endless possibilities. With unparalleled views, historic charm, and exceptional acreage, Windswept Farm is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to create your own legacy. (Can you spot the hot air balloon?)
