A historic schoolhouse has been converted into a dreamy country home in a picturesque corner of the region bordering both the Hudson Valley and the Berkshires. This half-acre property is full to the brim with flowers & garden beds, butterflies & birds. The home has been reimagined into a 2BD 2BA bungalow with a proper outdoor kitchen & patio, a three-season screened-in porch & detached, conditioned office space. Inside the main home you'll find high ceilings that make the 1,200 square feet feel wonderfully expansive. The kitchen floor is laid with brick, you'll find high-end appliances including an oversized stainless steel fridge and an under counter wine cooler. There is a laundry room & pantry with plenty of storage, a full bath and a living room with a gas fireplace on the first floor. The front porch has been converted to living space, a wonderfully private section of the home with a daybed for guests or enjoyed as a nice, quiet nook to idle away the days upstate. Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms and a bathroom. Many wonderful upgrades have been done including a full house generator and air conditioning. Multiple sheds and a chicken coop have been tucked in amongst the impressive gardens. This wonderful country property is just 10m to West Stockbridge and 15m to Chatham, 2.5h north of NYC & a world away.
