Public Remarks: Down a tree-lined country road and nestled in the middle of eight bucolic acres sits Maplewood, an impeccably restored 19th-century country estate located just beyond the edge of the village of Red Hook.The first approach, along a circular driveway and through stone walls, reveals the awe-inspiring setting of this Hudson Valley property. The landscape is dotted with specimen plantings and many ancient maple trees that the owners tap yearly. A new, Amish-built picturesque 3,000 sq ft barn is fully framed for a second-floor carriage house or office with a four-car garage on the ground floor. A large stone patio overlooks a 40x20 gunite pool surrounded by mature trees and plantings offering complete privacy. The stone-walled English garden is bordered by the entrance to a meandering rustic path that snakes around the whole property, ideal for leisurely walks.A true labor of love, the current owners worked diligently with local artisans to bring this expansive home to its original glory, leaving no detail untouched or unturned. Elements of period craftsmanship like inlaid hardwood floors, original windows and moldings, and copper gutters combine with recently added details such as the finest wallpapers from designers like Andrew Martin, Langelid Bromssen, Zoffany, and GP & J Baker, handmade Moroccan Zellige tiles and deVOL elements in the kitchen, and two full laundry rooms. You also find carefully selected unlacquered brass hardware and high-quality and stylish appliances throughout the house.Up three steps and through a wide verandah, the main door leads into a classical entry parlor. The living room is on the right, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a wood-burning fireplace, and on the left is a large, comfortable family room with a wood stove. A generous kitchen, the owners' favorite part of the house, leads out to the stone patio and the pool, blending indoor and outdoor living, an essential part of country life in the area. An office, a mudroom/laundry, and a stylish powder room complete the ground floor. The light-filled second floor has five well-appointed bedrooms and three very chic bathrooms with Waterworks fixtures.Maplewood is conveniently located less than a mile from the Village of Red Hook, 10 minutes to Rhinebeck and Bard College, 15 minutes to Amtrak, and 20 minutes from Hudson and Kingston, providing easy access to some of the finest restaurants, galleries, and shops in the Hudson Valley, and 1 hr 45 mins from from New York City.
