在房地產界，「性格」這個詞可能被過度使用，但像老漢金莊園這樣展現出溫暖而莊重的居所卻是罕見的。從你駛入小路的那一刻起，經過私人半英畝的池塘，直達環繞式搖椅走廊，你會被一種永恆與舒適優雅的感覺所打動。

這座房子隱藏在寧靜的鄉村道路後，已經在周圍的農田上屹立了超過125年。正式的前入口迎接你進入一個寬敞的前廳，並設有華麗的樓梯。這後面是一個舒適的媒體室，隱藏在其他生活空間之外。帶有石材雙面壁爐的客廳和書房迎接你進入主要的娛樂空間，再進入寬敞的正式餐廳，另一側也有壁爐和木製的內建書架。廚房功能齊全，同時保留著古樸的鄉村魅力——想想紅色格子桌布，老化的瓷盆，風化的木材以及剛出爐的櫻桃派。在這個空間旁邊是一個便利的食品儲藏室，擁有從地板到天花板的櫃子和另一個水槽。廚房旁邊有一個完整的浴室，還配有洗衣/烘乾設備。

在二樓的樓梯平台上，你會發現一個可愛而陽光明媚的休息室，然後沿著長廊走過五間具有不同特色的臥室，讓你能夠將客人引導到「丁香房」或「紅房」。這一層有兩個完整的浴室，其中一個擁有帶爪足浴缸的設計，位於一扇引人注目的彩色玻璃窗下，另一個則擁有迷人的老式配件的瓷磚淋浴。

三樓有一個超大的主套房。臥室設有如馬戲帳篷般的尖頂天花板，工作用的磚石壁爐和大型休息區。一個完整的套內浴室提供另一個爪足浸泡浴缸和帶天窗的步入式瓷磚淋浴。一個迷人的更衣室和大型玻璃包圍的辦公室為這一層畫上句號。

在戶外，房子的背面有一條小徑通往帶有火坑的石材露台，再到加熱游泳池。該區域簡單的佈局使你能夠欣賞開放田野和成熟樹木的自然隱私。在房產的另一側，清澈的淡水池提供游泳、划舟和安靜沉思的機會。前院寬大且輕微傾斜，非常適合家庭和朋友進行草地遊戲。幾乎令人難以置信的是，這個田園詩般的避世之所距離卡利庫恩的主街所有魅力和便利設施僅有十分鐘的步行距離。

Character may be an overused word in real estate, but it’s a rare home that exhibits as much warm gravitas as Old Hankins Manor. From the moment you pull up the drive, past the private half acre pond and up to the wraparound rocking chair porch, you’re struck by a sense of timelessness and comfortable elegance.

Tucked back from the quiet country road, this home has stood sentinel over the surrounding farmland for over 125 years. The formal front entrance welcomes you into a generous foyer with ornate staircase. Nestled behind this is a cozy media room, tucked away from the rest of the living space. The sitting room and den with stone double-sided fireplace welcome you into the primary entertaining space, then through to the spacious formal dining room, with the other face of the fireplace and wooden built-in shelving. The kitchen is highly functional while retaining an old country charm - think red checkered linens, aged porcelain sink, weathered wood and fresh baked cherry pies. Off this space is a convenient pantry with floor to ceiling cabinets and an additional sink. A full bathroom off the kitchen also houses a washer/dryer unit.

At the second floor landing, you’ll find a lovely, sunny sitting room before heading down the hallway housing five bedrooms, each with a distinct character, allowing you to direct your guests to the ‘lilac room’ or the ‘red room’. There are two full bathrooms on this floor, one with a clawfoot tub, positioned under a dramatic stained glass window, and another with a tiled shower with charming old-style fixtures.

The third floor houses a massive primary suite. The bedroom features a circus-tent-like peaked ceiling, working brick fireplace and large sitting area. A full en suite bath offers another clawfoot soaking tub and walk in tiled shower with skylight. A charming dressing room and large glass-encased office finish off this floor.

Outside, a pathway off the back of the house leads past a stone patio with fire pit to the heated pool. The simple layout of the this area allows you to appreciate the natural privacy of open fields and mature trees. To the other side of the property, the clear freshwater pond offers opportunities for swimming, paddling, and peaceful contemplation. The front lawn is large and lightly sloping, making it inviting for lawn games for your family and friends. Almost unbelievably, this idyllic escape is also just a ten minute walk to all the charms and conveniences of Main Street, Callicoon.
