Property Description
This historically significant 1700's Woodstock Farmstead and beautifully appointed guest house featured in Elle Decor Magazine combines classic American roots with modern country living and a touch of international elegance. Lovingly cared for both inside and out with thoughtfully designed updates and gardens, including an English-made Hartley greenhouse, abundant fruit trees and exquisite blooming perennials. Guests over the years have said they feel like they have entered a magical paradise and never want to leave! The main house retains its humble roots with wood floors and timeless elements yet is elevated to embrace a busy 21st century lifestyle. A welcoming and functional mud room leads to the authentic farmhouse eat-in kitchen with banquette and European style window that opens to a capacious screened-in porch overlooking the gunite pool and barn. This porch serves as a 3-season entertainment space and is fabulous for summer sleeping. The heated in-ground salt water pool area extends to include an outdoor sauna and a covered wood fired pizza oven. Back inside, there is a formal living room with fireplace and formal dining room currently being used as a library/sitting room providing plenty of common area on the main floor. In addition there is a full bath between the kitchen and living room with outdoor access to the pool. Upstairs hosts a sunny wide landing with room for an office plus 4 spacious bedrooms and a bath. Envision cozy nights under the duvet and waking up to a farmhouse breakfast at home or brunch at a nearby restaurant. Now, out to the guest house, barn, and beyond! The large multifunctional red barn is not only home to 2 horse stalls, it has an attached chicken coop, 2nd story area for storage or future studio space, and a terrific functional space on the ground floor for storage or a summer party room. The luxurious 900 square foot guest house on the right hand side of the barn was created with an eye for refined aesthetics evident by its soothing color palette, handcrafted architectural details, soaring ceilings that make the space feel quite large and a bluestone patio leading out to the glorious garden. This section of the property was covered in Elle Decor after its inception. It's timeless design provides a refuge for those seeking a balance of simplicity and sophistication. The smaller red outbuilding on the property is the farm's former blacksmith shop, now an adorable and whimsical Summer sleeping room - your own little glamping spot but better! The property expands beyond the barn and up the hill with a fenced in field with run-in shed should one want horses. For those who enjoy gardening, the property is a dream come true. Grow your own organic food and enjoy the bounty of the many fruit trees for years to come. Woodstock Village is only 5 minutes away with an abundance of great restaurants shops, music and art. Kingston or Saugerties and the NYS Thruway are all within 15 minutes. Under 2 hours from Manhattan and in the heart of the Hudson Valley. Hiking, Rail Trails, Ashokan Reservoir, cycling, kayaking, skiing, tennis, pickleball all close by.
