Germantown Home Near Hudson & Rhinebeck in Red Hook School District Set on over an acre in Germantown on a quiet, tree-lined country road, this home offers a comfortable neighborhood feel just minutes from Hudson, Red Hook, and Rhinebeck, with farm stands, orchards, wineries, and outdoor recreation all within easy reach. Under two hours from NYC, it is equally suited as a full-time residence or weekend retreat. A welcoming entryway leads inside, where high ceilings and wood details add character and warmth throughout the main level. The layout flows easily from a generous eat-in kitchen into a living room centered around a brick fireplace. Sliding glass doors lead out to the backyard, creating an inviting setting for both everyday living, and gathering. The main level also features a full bathroom and an additional room, which is perfect for a flexible home office. The wooden staircase leads to the second floor, where an open landing offers flexible space for a reading nook, workspace, or a play area. Three well-proportioned bedrooms are located off the landing, while an arched opening leads down a hallway to the primary bedroom and full bath. Privately tucked away, the peaceful primary offers distant views of the Catskill Mountains. Mini-split units throughout the home provide efficient, year-round heating and cooling comfort, and an attached single-car garage offers convenient parking and additional storage. The fenced in backyard is set up for easy outdoor living, with a deck for dining, a pool for summer, and a large open space for gardening, chickens, or other pursuits. Situated within the Red Hook Central School District, and within minutes to local favorites: Hearty Roots Farm Market, Greig Farm, Lasting Joy Brewery, Tivoli General, and Lake Taghkanic State Park; 20 minutes to Amtrak in Hudson or Rhinecliff.
