Down a long gravel driveway, this sprawling 10-acre property unfolds with its warm and welcoming farmhouse, paddock where horses graze, meandering stream, fruit trees and grapevines, private trails through shady woods, and peaceful river frontage, all under the gaze of the majestic Shawangunk cliffs. The heated inground pool is surrounded by large stone pavers and a perennial border garden bursting with blooms.The combination of stone and flora is found all around the house, with stone walled foundation gardens, a generous front walkway lined with hostas, and a stone patio shaded by maples and pines. Night brings starlit skies and fires in the stone fire pit. The house, clad in a velvety blue cedar siding with crisp white trim, is perfectly situated in the landscape, with south-facing windows, a brand new deck facing west for sunsets with ridge views, and a cozy, covered front porch. Inside, the tiled mudroom offers built-in storage for gear. As you enter the main living area the ceiling soars and the post and beam structure is revealed.
