Property Description
This charming farmhouse is located in the heart of Germantown, situated off Main Street yet sited on a private 1.2 acres. Dating back to 1900, this home is one of the original Rockefeller farmhouses found throughout bucolic Germantown. Arrive via a generous front porch framed with columns. Exterior French doors open to another set of French doors adorned with leaded glass. The foyer — bright and welcoming — offers storage under the staircase as well as a stylish powder room. To the right, a large living space flows seamlessly into an updated kitchen. The kitchen features a gas range as well as a double-bowl farmhouse sink that overlooks a stone patio. A painted tin ceiling in the kitchen is one of many historic elements that add an air of charm throughout the house. A hall from the kitchen leads to a dining room for more formal entertaining. The parlor adjoining the dining room boasts gorgeous crown moldings and medallion, another reminder of the historic provenance of the home. A graceful staircase leads to an upstairs landing with built-in shelves and desk, perfect for a home office and library. Two bedrooms share a full bath found off the landing. The primary bedroom is spacious and boasts an inlaid-wood ceiling that adds warmth and texture to the space. The primary bathroom has been thoughtfully updated; in addition to a generously-sized shower and double vanity, it also features a floating claw-foot tub. An in-law suite occupies the rear of the home where the fourth bedroom is found atop a second staircase. The suite includes a wet-bar, full bath, office nook as well as access to a porch that enjoys Hudson River and Catskill Mountain views. Accessible through the house it also has a separate entrance, allowing for numerous possibilities including short- or long-term rental. Wide-plank hardwood floors and crown moldings throughout the house are thoughtfully accented with modern fixtures and hardware; updates have been made with great care to modernize the home while paying homage to its past. Outside the home, one finds a generous lot with stunning Catskill Mountain and Hudson River views. In addition to the stately front porch, side porch and stone patio, there is a gravel courtyard designed for dining as well as a fire pit area also lined with gravel. A seasonal stream runs past the edge of property and delivers a calming ambiance of running water. In addition, a fenced-in garden offers the opportunity to grow one's own vegetables and / or prized flowers. Located just seconds to amenities found on Main Street in Germantown, 15 minutes to Hudson and 20 minutes to Rhinebeck, this chic yet historic home is situated in the vibrant heart of the Hudson Valley.
