1268 County Route 27, Taghkanic, NY 12521

If you've dreamed of making a home in a unique historic building, here's your chance. Someone's already done the heavy lifting of converting this classic ca-1850s church into a stylish, efficient and comfortable residence. Move in and enjoy the soaring 25-foot ceilings, exposed timber frame, wideboard floors with radiant heat, and serene open-plan great room with a loft for your bedroom and full bath. The building has been completely renovated; still, so many original details remain, including wood clapboard siding, columns and, of course, the iconic belfry (with the bell still inside!). Imagine relaxing on the covered porch, looking out at picturesque farmland, or cozying up to a fire in the wood-burning stove. If you don't mind sharing it sometimes, the property has a track record as an active short-term rental and guest favorite. Located in the peaceful Columbia County town of Taghkanic, just 20 minutes to Hudson, less than 10 minutes to the Taconic Parkway and 2 hours to NYC, near the beautiful Berkshires for great hiking and skiing.
