Welcome to Schoolhouse Farm. Located in the heart of Dutchess County, close to the Taconic Parkway, and only 90 minutes from Manhattan, this magnificent property, minutes from Rhinebeck and Millbrook could be yours. This is only the 2nd time in fifty years this house will have new owners. It could be your perfect primary home, or an ideal country getaway from the city with convenient access to both Amtrak and Metro North. The house and barn were built in 1822 on 17 bucolic acres off a quiet country road. This 2,600 sf classic post and beam colonial has been lovingly maintained and restored while preserving its character and retaining countless original details. The exterior of the house was recently painted, leaving nothing more to do than move right in. A flexible layout includes a country kitchen with an inspiring view of the barn, leading to a breakfast room and large dining room. A living room, a den/TV room, a private guest room and a completely renovated bathroom complete the 1st floor. Two additional bedrooms, another full bathroom and two "bonus rooms" upstairs could work in many ways to suit your exact needs. A full attic and a cement basement provide tons of storage space and last but not least, a large screened in porch is the perfect setting for three season entertaining. The historic two story barn with five stalls makes it an equestrian's dream as the barn's majestic upper level with cathedral ceilings is perfect for storing a season's worth of hay. But this spectacular space could also showcase a vintage car collection beautifully, make for an inspiring artist's studio or an ideal carpenter's workshop. And if you love to entertain, the barn would provide the most welcoming space to host the ultimate "farm to table" dinner party on a grand scale. The possibilities are truly endless, just think it and it can happen. If homesteading is your dream, the property itself is magical, offering meadows, a vegetable garden, and a tree line as far as the eye can see. A fairytale bridge crosses the babbling brook, leading to a stone wall lined bridle path, and a quiet pole barn with a swing. Come see for yourself the many more unique features that make this property such a special retreat to relax. And should you need to rejuvenate your mind and soul some more, the Omega Institute is only 7 minutes from your new home. Start your new chapter at Schoolhouse Farm, and this sanctuary will make Spring 2019 the one to remember...
