Property Description
This is a very special farm house, elegant, true to it's heritage, and steeped in local history. Enter the front door, and at once you will appreciate those special details. The gleaming wide board floors, the early Victorian newel post, the moldings and ornamentation over the doors and windows, especially evident in the wonderful formal living room, with windows on three sides. The kitchen is a dream. Not only atmospheric with a bank of windows facing west, to take in the view, but also the fireplace with seating area, so that the cook can chat with friends while preparing a wonderful meal. The current owners are professional chefs, so there are ample preparation surfaces, and a great range. Other features include a screened porch, a library and patio for outside dining. Upstairs, there is a Master Bedroom with fireplace and four other bedrooms. There are three bathrooms in all.
The gardens are a delight, with herbs for the kitchen, perennial beds, as well as various "rooms" created by the owners, so that one can enjoy the views from the comfort of a chair, shaded by a pergola or mature maple. The pool is situated so that while swimming one can enjoy the Hudson Valley vistas.
The house is equidistant from the thriving towns of Pine Plains and Millerton. Good restaurants, shops and a movie theatre are just down the road. It is in an area which is know for land conservation and farming.
