Nestled in nine acres of mature forest, this masterfully modernized refuge offers both pastoral charm and practical resilience. A brand-new backup generator system paired with generous propane storage ensures uninterrupted power, while the property's well, septic system, and state-of-the-art water filtration create true infrastructure independence. A new metal roof, fortified foundation, and 200-amp electrical system form a robust backbone for modern living, complemented by high-speed fiber internet for seamless remote work. The serene interior features exceptional insulation, handsome wood floors, and 22 high-insulation windows that flood the space with natural light. The renovated kitchen showcases an expanse of custom white oak cabinets with precise grain-matching, new stainless appliances, and a convenient pot-filler. Two peaceful bedrooms (easily reconfigured back into 3-bedrooms), two full baths, and a wood-burning stove provide comfort and resilience, while a foam-insulated crawl space and 8x20 shipping container offer abundant storage for provisions. The detached garage houses a fully-equipped workshop with established electrical and water connections and a versatile second-floor space ideal for a studio or guest area. A new table saw and chop saw station convey with the property, along with miscellaneous hand tools and power tools. Just two hours from Manhattan by train or car, yet worlds away from urban clamor, this property presents compelling investment potential both as a turnkey Airbnb destination and possible development through its subdividable acreage. The hushed setting is surrounded by destination restaurants, local farms, and cultural landmarks including Art Omi, The Campus, and Hudson's world-famous gallery scene. Winter sports enthusiasts will appreciate Catamount's slopes, just 20 minutes away. The western facing land peaks at views of the Catskills and features two tranquil vernal pools (teeming with frogs), ancient trees, and dramatic rock formations. Perched on an exceptionally quiet knollwhere even passing cars are inaudible despite being just five minutes from the Taconic Parkway, offering both Hudson Valley charm and genuine self-sufficiency in profound peace.
THE ABODE OF AN ARTISTPerched commandingly on a knoll, this impressive fully renovated home has 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, 22 new thermopane windows, new metal roof, new hot water heater, 200 amp service, new appliances, wood floors, new septic and fiber optic. Conscious of the changing climate, the owner sided the house in the Japanese method of Yakisugi. This process is used to preserve the wood by charring it. The charred surface of the board makes the wood fire retardant as well as resistant to rot, insects and decay. The home is surrounded by nine-plus, sub-dividable, acres with two ponds, towering old oaks and pines and beautiful rock formations. There is a garage/workshop and a loft above, with a water line and electric. Private, incredibly quiet, only 15 minutes to Hudson, 5 minutes to the Taconic Parkway with no road noise. A true refuge.
