Welcome to 36 Bog Hollow Rest, your perfect country escape from the hustle and bustle of city life! This 1,740 sq. ft. home has everything you are looking for: 3BR’s, 2 baths, office, private spring fed pond, mature landscaping, easy access to multiple Metro North train stations, as well as proximity to some of the best towns in the area. Enjoy art exhibits in Wassaic, catch a drive-in movie in Amenia, pick up the best tea in the country at Harney & Sons in Millerton, start your day with the perfect Pain au Chocolat at Le Gamin’s upstate outpost in Sharon and spend the afternoon wandering the zoo in Millbrook. You approach along a gravel driveway that wends past a 40 acre marsh full of rare waterfowl, turtles and song birds. The approximately 1 acre property is located at the base of East Mountain, one of largest remaining undisturbed wild areas in the NYC metro area. Between the house and the mountain is your own private spring fed pond, full of water lilies, ferns and musical frogs. The home’s entry is framed by mature landscaping (roses, spirea, rhododendrons, and dogwoods) which extend into the center of the gravel circular driveway and around the pond. You can choose to enter through the French doors into the oversized mudroom (10.5’x10.5’ with WD hookups). Or, you can come right into the large open kitchen and dining area through the 14’x9.5’ screened porch featuring its own skylight, outdoor fan and bluestone floor. If you’re working from home and need to get straight to work without distraction, you also have the option of taking the patio stairs up to the huge 14’x14’ elevated deck which has direct access to the upstairs office. Below the deck is a 14’x14’ bluestone patio which could be used for entertaining or storage. If working on projects is more your thing, there is also a large 20’x16’ shed which would make a perfect wood shop, brewhouse or just storage for all those outdoor toys you are sure to want. The light and bright interiors, generous room dimensions and excellent flow make 36 Bog Hollow Rest a welcoming home to live in and entertain. The oversized living room (22’x16.5’) has 11’ of windows overlooking the pond and the mountain. There is also a chimney with the potential for romantic evenings by the fire. The large open dining room with pass through bar to the living room also overlooks the pond. The kitchen has substantial storage as well as stainless appliances. The first floor guest bedroom has an adjacent showered bathroom and ample storage. Upstairs there is a massive master bedroom suite (18.75’x10’) with a separate walk-in closet or nursery room (11’x7.5’).
