Description

Perfectly sited on a quiet walking road, this handsome Center-hall Colonial is now available for the first time in almost 2 decades. The nearly 7 acres offer an oasis around the residence with a stream that opens into the Swarte Kill (Black Creek) to kayak and experience wetland wildlife. Right from the full-length rocking chair porch, you feel so at home. This four-bedroom residence has a quiet formality which begins at the entry foyer. High ceilings, big windows and gleaming wood floors all invite the light and create a sense of spaciousness. The beautiful staircase is flanked by a living room and den, each quite comfortable. The fully equipped kitchen has a breakfast bar, appliance counter and generous dining area. The formal dining room, just off the kitchen, is presently used as a yoga/meditation & music room, and is certainly available for fabulous meals prepared from the local farmers’ market fare. Through the kitchen glass doors is a spacious deck overlooking a sweet lawn, beautiful trees, and your own undisturbed natural scenery. Up the stairs, we have a most inviting landing below a vast Palladian window. This offers moonlight for all nocturnal doings and early sunlight to enjoy your first cuppa, It’s a really wonderful place to begin or end your day. The vast primary bedroom is privately situated at one side of the house and includes a dressing room and romantic full bath with a spa tub. Three other bedrooms are more than ample, presently one serving as an office. They share another full bath. Below, we have an insulated, very dry basement for storage, workshop, whatever, and access into a quite large 2-car garage with electric doors. This home is within the highly regarded New Paltz school system and minutes to SUNY and all it offers for further education, culture, and sport. The vibrant village of New Paltz is replete with a thriving food and art scene. Preserved land sanctuaries abound throughout the area: nearby Black Creek Preserve, Shaupeneak Ridge, Empire Trail, Burroughs’ Slabsides, and of course, Mohonk and Minnewaska. Plutarch Road, and the environs, are a little Hudson Valley secret’ so lovely for walking and biking. You’re close to Kingston, the NYS Thruway, and over the bridge to MetroNorth. This home has been carefully maintained and is truly an opportunity to experience a healthy country life yet be convenient to so much else.
