Welcome to Bacon Pond House. A seamless blend of 19th-century soul and 21st-century luxury. Situated on over 3 acres, this antique Colonial has been thoughtfully revived to honor its heritage while offering every modern convenience. The interior, lovingly brought back to life, features wide-plank flooring and exposed hand-hewn beams that anchor the home's historic character. The rooms are designed for both intimacy and entertaining. A cozy sitting room and a dedicated office/library-complete with a classic fireplace-offer quiet retreats. For larger gatherings, the front-to-back living room, with windows on three sides, is bathed in natural light. At the heart of the home is the remodeled kitchen, which opens to the dining room centered around the original refurbished center core fireplace. Upstairs, four bedrooms await. The primary bedroom offers a new ensuite bath detailed with custom tile. The three additional bedrooms share a fully renovated bathroom with a soaking tub/shower combo. Thoughtfully curated, professionally designed interior furniture and fixtures are available upon request. The property has benefited from extensive renovations that include new bathrooms and kitchen, floor refinishing, a new well, upgraded septic, and more; a substantial list is available upon request.
The exterior is as enchanting as the interior, offering a large heritage red brick patio that provides the perfect vantage point to overlook the acreage, which gently slopes down to a babbling brook at the property's edge. The outbuilding includes a charming potter's shed equipped with electricity, ideal for gardening, while the barn with original hand-hewn beams, lower-level stalls, and running water is ready for equestrian use or a premier hobby space. Bacon Pond House isn't just a home; it's a piece of history, updated for the way you live today. A 90-minute drive from the bustle of NYC, this property is moments away from the quaint shops, parks, and eateries of historic Woodbury.
