Sit on your gracious, rocking chair porch with a drink in one hand, looking at the bucolic yard, while relaxing to the sound of the waterfall across the street. This charmingly restored farmhouse (ca 1900) invites a quaint calm from the moment you step inside, where you are greeted by a large yet cozy living room with a beamed wood ceiling. Another unique feature in this historic home is the light, open feeling, as the hardwood floors usher you from the living room into a spacious dining room with a huge window overlooking the front yard. Additional eyebrow windows on one side and a glass fronted built-in cabinet wrapping another corner strategically placed by the kitchen provides gracious space for entertaining. You can welcome 10+ friends to dine under a chandeliered ceiling medallion (an upscale feature found in the wealthy homes of the 19th century) that provides elegance and elan to every meal. The bright, updated kitchen has large grey floor tiles, new countertops and window treatments, and there is even room for a small table or rolling cart. An exquisitely remodeled bathroom is off the living room and respects the architecture of the day with a claw-foot tub, glass shower with subway tile, marble half-wall that is edged with glass pencil tile, and gorgeous fixtures. Downstairs also has an office (or first-floor bedroom or art/yoga studio) with an antique art deco light fixture. Adjoining is a utility room with a washer/dryer, auxiliary freezer and a door out to the front porch that makes life a breeze. Upstairs reveals the original wide plank floors and three charming bedrooms, each with windows on two sides overlooking trees and the yard. A second bathroom could easily be added in one of the bedrooms. The location is fabulous! Just 10 minutes to Saugerties and Woodstock, 20 minutes to skiing at Hunter Mountain, and surrounded by hiking trails and swimming holes. There are two sheds - one in the front yard awaiting your vision and one in the back yard with a diesel powered generator. Note that Town of Saugerties currently allows short term rentals (STR) with proper licenses and town approval. This is a very versatile home combining charm, coziness, convenience and STR opportunity. Listing agent is owner. A pleasure to show and see - come visit and make your dream of living in the Hudson Valley and the Catskills a reality,
