This home has it all: a waterfront view (outside the flood plain), a pool, a large fenced yard, deeded access to the Wallkill River for canoeing and kayaking (riverfront parcel belongs to #7), and New Paltz schools with Rosendale town taxes -- plus, it's situated on a peaceful private road. The house is loaded with character. The main part is believed to date to the 1800s and features a stone entryway with a doorway surrounded by carved wood panels. The house underwent a major renovation six years ago -- including a new kitchen with white brick and tile walls, a new downstairs bathroom, and new doors and windows. It recently has gone through another renovation with interior and exterior painting, new fencing, and a newly tiled hallway, and the upstairs bathroom is brand-new construction. The former owners were a talented designer and a carpenter, and their attention to detail and seamless blending of old and new elements are evident throughout -- from the two preserved stone fireplaces and the hardwood floors to the knotty-pine ceiling, modern light fixtures, and energy-efficient gas stove in the dining room and gas fireplace in the living room. The living-room fireplace is a magnificent centerpiece with an old wood-beam mantel set in a stone wall. In addition to the pool, the fully fenced backyard contains a vegetable garden, a chicken coop, and a fire pit, and provides a lovely setting for entertaining and relaxing, along with the spacious front patio. The paved driveway leads to the two-car garage with loft storage. This architecturally compelling home, replete with recreational opportunities, is equidistant to Kingston and New Paltz, half a mile from the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail, 20 minutes from glorious Minnewaska State Park, 10 minutes to the thruway, and just a few miles from hip Rosendale, with its B&Bs, boutiques, and rail-trail trestle, for an ideal melding of outdoor and cultural activities.
