Ripe for restoration waits the House of Seven Gables, an antique Gothic Revival home circa 1800, known as the Oliver House. Once a portion of the Gill farm now owned by the Farm Hub, this landmark property is surrounded by protected property. A compelling structure of approximately 5000 sq ft, this massive home was built using locally quarried limestone, hand hewn chestnut timbers and locally harvested white oak. The attention to detail by the craftspeople commissioned by the Olivers to build this house is evident in the unusually generous ceiling height, the grand entryway, the wood moldings, doors and window enclosures, the numerous marble fireplaces and the substantial living spaces. In addition to the main level which consists of a generous land sun filled eatin kitchen with a commercial range, a formal dining room, formal living room and family room there is are 2 substantial rooms that are somewhat raw and ready to be finished. The original smoke house offers potential for a pool house, a studio or a workshop. The 2nd floor with an oversized landing- large enough for a playroom- and 4 generous bedrooms leads to another hidden area. The nooks and crannies and hidden rooms make this a intriguing property with an attic offering a way out to a Widow's Walk. Perfect for a event space, a retreat, a restaurant, an AirBnB a place for family and friends to escape to. This is your opportunity to own a piece of history. Minutes to Historic Stone Ridge & High Falls as well as to Uptown Kingston and the Thruway. Easy access to Rhinebeck and all that the Hudson Valley has to offer.
