For the lover of the country who wants a private and undisturbed spot, it would be hard to find a house more suggestive of the natural landscape of Dutchess County and its eastern wildness. At the Aerie, you are always sharing space with the natural world. The majestic view of the foothills in the distance is a constant and ever changing presence, whether wreathed in valley fog, beset by storm clouds, or rich in spring color. Unapologetically unpretentious, the shingled farmhouse has three fully livable floors. A large appealing kitchen opens into a sunny living room with large windows, a screened-in porch, and a deck to take advantage of astounding mountain views. Also on the entry level are a full bathroom and a comfortable den. The upper level has two sunny, private bedrooms and bath. The lower level can be used as a family/play room or as a studio apartment, as it has its own kitchen and bathroom. It is accessible from inside or through a separate entrance. Five lovely acres include both a wooded section and a large lawn that tumbles down the hill below the house. A small, charming stream runs through the property, boisterous in spring and autumn, and there is a secluded out-building studio/meditation space. Accessible to Millbrook, NY, Kent, CT, Metro North, and Wassaic's bustling art community.
