Property Description
Welcome to this pristine country chalet, perfectly situated on a quiet country road and offering the ideal blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or investment property, this home checks every box. The spacious main level features a primary bedroom with an ensuite bath, along with a second bedroom and convenient half bath. Beautiful pine floors and tongue-and-groove knotty pine extend throughout the hallway, living room, kitchen, and dining area, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. A soaring cathedral ceiling with dramatic trapezoid windows fills the home with natural light, while sliding glass doors open to a brand-new Trex wraparound deck overlooking a private wooded setting--perfect for relaxing on cool summer evenings. The upper-level loft offers a private balcony overlooking the main living area and includes a bedroom, full bath, and sitting area, making it ideal for guests or a peaceful retreat. The full basement features 10-foot ceilings, a patio door, and a separate exterior entrance, providing endless possibilities for storage, a workshop, recreation space, or future finishing. Oversized, heated garage makes a perfect spot for car enthusiasts or a place for all the toys. Recent improvements and features include a new UV water treatment system, Splits System, Buderus boiler, radon mitigation system, and 200-amp electrical service. Perfect as a country vacation home, Airbnb, or year-round residence. Ideally located just minutes from the Taconic State Parkway, I-90, and the New York State Thruway, with easy access to the Berkshires, Hudson, and the charming Village of Chatham. Albany is less than 30 minutes away, offering the perfect balance of peaceful country living and convenient access to shopping, dining, arts, and entertainment.
