1097 Church Rd, Saugerties, NY 12477

Escape from it all. Wander through your own private woods. Yet, you’re minutes to Woodstock and a short drive to Saugerties. This property has all the components of “special. ” Tucked away off a country road and is sited on a private 24 acres of lush woods and open meadow. The driveway enters onto a circular drive surrounding a charming stone patio and wall just steps away from the main entrance to the house. It’s a great place to have morning coffee or an evening glass of your favorite beverage. Besides being oh so private you’ll find the house is welcoming the minute you see it. The style of house is a blend of old and new farmhouse/colonial feel, complete with some beamed ceilings, pickled wood floors and a beautiful kitchen with its own wood-fired barbecue. Off the kitchen is a family room with access to the rear deck and fenced-in yard. This space is currently used as a den/office but would be a great t. v. room as well. There’s a large mudroom off the rear deck with plenty of room to store all your outdoor gear and shoes, which will keep your house tidy. A great way to enter after coming in from winter sports. Not to mention storage and laundry area. The living room/dining area is open and flows seamlessly together and has a very comfortable feel, perfect for family time or entertaining guests or just getting cozy curled up on your sofa reading a book. You’ll find yourself spending hours on end there and enjoying the warmth of the wood-burning stove. The beamed ceilings and pickled wood floors add to the charm. There are bathrooms on each level. The hallway and nice-sized landing upstairs lead to the 3 bedrooms. The master has an adorable built-in bookcase, which adds to the country feel. On the upper level there’s a great studio/office space or possibly a place to do yoga or meditate away from it all. Use it for whatever suits your needs--private and quietly tucked away. The outdoors is very park-like with an expansive, open grassy area and great places for your hammock and room for you to garden and entertain to your heart's delight. Grow your own. The large raised bed isn’t planted this year but has plenty of room to grow vegetables. The garage is in keeping with the house; it sits off to the side and has a charming appearance and room for 2 cars. There is access to a spacious upstairs area that can be used for storage or a place for your band to rehearse, art studio or wherever your imagination takes you. You have total privacy with room for a pool, tennis court or whatever you can think of. 24 Acres is Big! You can even make magical trails through your woods. Turn into the driveway and enter your own paradise. Yes!
