Nestled on a picturesque road, this bright and airy property offers a blend of privacy, luxury, and natural beauty. Situated on just over one acre, the property is surrounded by trees on three sides giving a wonderful feeling of both expanse and wooded retreat. The cathedral great room provides a centerpiece perfect for gathering and enjoying the cozy fireplace (gas) in the cooler seasons. The kitchen is appointed with s/s appliances, granite countertops and a 6-burner cooktop on the center island efficiently designed for a home cook. Skylights and walls of windows suffuse the living space with natural light. Meticulously maintained, the house is designed to impress, with a generous open-concept floor plan for the main living area. Three spacious bedrooms, including a primary ensuite, walk-in closet, a small study and work area complete the main floor. The newly updated cedar back deck and awning, is perfect for hosting outdoor get-togethers while enjoying tree-top views, sunsets, and birdwatching in your private sanctuary. The home offers one-level living with both an interior and separate outdoor entrances to a spacious, unfinished basement including a small wine cellar. The property slopes gently down a hill to a detached two-bay garage/shed with extra storage space. There is also a propane-powered generator for peace of mind. A half mile off the Taconic State Parkway, and 15-20 minutes from Amtrak, the Villages of Rhinebeck and Millbrook, this turnkey Hudson Valley gem offers a unique blend of easily accessible country charm and modern convenience.
