Tucked at the end of a quiet, dead-end road and surrounded by 3 level acres of lawn, trees, and privacy, this beautifully renovated Colonial Farmhouse is the kind of place that feels like home the second you pull in. Inside, the heart of the home is the stunning custom kitchen—Carrara marble countertops and backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a big island ready for rolling out cookies or hosting impromptu wine-and-cheese nights. A sweet built-in dining nook sits in front of a big picture window overlooking the backyard—perfect for slow mornings and sunny views. From there, the flow is just right: a spacious, sun-soaked dining room connects to the large living room, where you'll find a wood-burning fireplace that brings the cozy vibes when the temps drop. There's also a main-floor den with a closet that works great as a home office, guest room, or even a fourth bedroom. Upstairs, the massive primary suite offers plenty of space to unwind, while two more generously sized bedrooms and a full bathroom round out the top floor. Need more room to spread out? The finished basement is super versatile—set up your home gym, playroom, or creative studio. When the weather warms up, this place really shines. French doors lead out to a new large deck overlooking the heated, saline in-ground pool and cabana (hello, summer hangouts). Behind the cabana, a small stream adds to the peaceful, park-like vibe. This home truly offers the best of both worlds—secluded and private, yet just minutes to the charming hamlet of Stone Ridge and so many local favorites. You're less than 10 minutes to the scenic Ashokan Reservoir (a favorite for walks and bike rides), and about 30 minutes to Woodstock, New Paltz, Kingston, and Rosendale. Local hot spots like Butterfield, Ollie's, INNESS, Arrowood Farms, and Westwind Orchard are all nearby, plus endless farm stands, hiking trails, and river adventures to round out your Upstate lifestyle. All of this, just 95 miles from the GWB. Whether you're looking for a weekend escape or a full-time home base, this one is ready for you to move in and start making memories.
