"Rainbow Hill" - a special mid- mountain plateau on Ohayo Mountain that captures & reflects the light creating rainbows in spring/summer afternoon sunshowers. This level spot was apart of Woodstock's farming days and several mid 1800's barns remain. Open fields and a pond attract abundant wildlife. Still today, you'll find a neighboring home farm with chickens (and fresh eggs), plus a friendly cow and her offspring. Across from the property is a DEC woodland (no trails). The front rocking chair porch welcomes guests and is visible through the large picture windows in the kitchen/dining area and living room. Completing the first floor to the rear of the house is a bright room with half-bath. This was as an office/library, but certainly offers many uses and from here one steps out to the small screen porch and out to the backyard. This house is cozy in winter and during warmer weather there is the ability to leave the screen porch door open to the rear yard and field visible through the trees behind to capture cooling breezes. Oak wood flooring runs through most of the house and may be under the kitchen flooring as well since the house is a 1925 bungalow structure complete with a full, unfinished basement for storage, laundry and insulation against winter cold. Taking the stairway up to the second story one arrives on a landing that leads to bedrooms on either side of the good sized full bath. The yard in back is green and inviting and just a few steps away discover the old, small barn which more recently had been a garage and storage. Here there is a loft which shows clear evidence of more recent structural support. It could become a special hideaway, a painters retreat if skylights added.. or, just good high & dry storage. This home is an excellent, well priced opportunity to live in Woodstock. And, yes, in a community with neighbors that walk the nearby roads with their dogs and children. Bring paint and some TLC and turn the house into a treasure. The owner of many years, a writer and photographer who chronicled the local streetscapes flora and fauna moved West. He leaves the fates to find a special new owner for the property. The property is being sold "as is" .
