Remarks

Located in the historic Rhinebeck Village, this lovingly maintained c1797 Carpenter Gothic style home, is just one block from the vibrant village center, and near the town farmers' market, shops, restaurants, Upstate Films, Crystal Lake, schools and community events. The house has three bedrooms, a den/dressing room, as well as an office area, a family room, living room, dining room, kitchen, and two and a half remodeled bathrooms. It is set back from the street and sited on a large residential lot, comfortably nestled in its picturesque gardens. The welcoming wraparound front porch with its gingerbread trim is an idyllic place to greet friends and neighbors and view the perennial garden, Japanese maple tree and picket fence. Inside the large-scale rooms are alcove windows, high ceilings, beautifully preserved architectural details and pristine wide-board floors bathed in sunshine. The heart of the home is the gracious first level with a spacious foyer, dining room, living room and a family room with an adjacent half bathroom. The kitchen with Fisher & Paykel and Bosch appliances is a cook's delight with plenty of counter space, concealed laundry and a glass door that opens to the back porch for grilling and dining alfresco. A few steps outside will lead you to more lush perennial gardens, fruit trees, lilac bushes and a pea-stone patio. It is a wonderful space to host parties and a peaceful place to curl up, listen to the birds or read a book. There is a large parking area to provide plenty of off street parking for owners and guests, space for a swimming pool, and with village approval, the possibility of additional development. The home's second level, reached by front or back stairways, has a landing currently used as a home office with built-in desk and bookshelves, a private primary bedroom area that could become a suite with an adjacent sunny bathroom, dressing room or second office/sitting area. There are two guest bedrooms and another full bathroom. There are 8-inch pine floors under the carpeting. The home's third level offers an additional 480 square feet of space suitable for finishing. The seller has an extensive list of improvements to share that details how they have diligently maintained and upgraded major systems to this home over the last 14 years: the roof with a lifetime guarantee is 8 years old, a heating system/boiler new in 2019 and new septic system in 2021. As well as being close to everything the Hudson Valley has to offer, this home, which provides quiet and privacy inside and outside, is 5 min from Amtrak in Rhinecliff, 20 min to Kingston, 25 min to Metro North in Poughkeepsie, and 1 hour 45 min to the GWB.
