This spacious, elegant and rambling 3-story farmhouse is set back from one of Ulster County’s most desired roads and includes a swimmable pond, and a 2-story barn with electric and multiple work and storage areas. You can access the rail trail behind the house and walk, run or ride a bike or a horse for miles with no interruption, and access your own 22-acre nature sanctuary on the other side of the trail. The house itself offers room after room with beautiful onsite views of the lush landscape out of every window. Three porches – two enclosed and one screened – blur the lines between indoors and out. The eat-in country kitchen is light and bright and opens to the dining room on one side and the living room on the other. A den, mudroom and powder room complete the third floor. Four large bedrooms, spacious full bath and laundry room make up the second floor, and the walk up attic has a sitting room, another large room and full bath with deep tub and stall shower.
