Two beautiful early colonial saltbox style homes on 90 totally private, secluded and rare acres offered for sale in Woodstock NY. Built in 1989 and designed by Mckye Wing Roth, the homes have old world authenticity in every detail. Red cedar siding with only 2.5†reveal, true divide windows, hand made museum quality lighting fixtures, hand wrought iron latches, handmade beaded moldings, wide board flooring, cedar shake roof, and beamed ceilings are just some of the perfect finishing touches. All this old world charm without the headaches of a very old home, in fact the home is extra strong with a poured concrete foundation and steel support beams in the full finished basement, making everything straight and true with virtually no settling. The two houses compliment each other, having been built in the same style within a year of each other and can be used as a main house with guest house or as two very separate residences since they are nicely set apart. On two separate deeds, the larger home has 60+/- acres and the smaller home has 30+/- acres. Each lot can be subdivided as well, adding greatly to the value. Living room fireplaces in each of the dwellings are accompanied by woodstoves in many of the other rooms, including kitchens and bedrooms, adding to the warmth of the home, in every respect.

The 90 acre surrounding landscape envelopes the homes with primeval forest, meadow, and enough manicured lawns for taking in the sun, playing with the kids, whatever you like. Take the beautiful long drive and discover this hidden haven, like something from pioneer days with the comfort of knowing that the modern world is just down the road, (but it’s Woodstock, not just any village!). The beautiful kidney shaped heated saline pool sits next to the handsome white cedar barn and just a few steps away from the main house, adding a touch more luxury to the entire experience. The current owners have spent years planting trees on the all organic grounds, taking great care to choose only native, and quite often endangered species such as: chestnut, birch, white pine, red spruce. Also, the giant hemlock trees provide year round screening from anything other than this 90 acre world. Barns and run-in sheds help to make this property perfect for animals, artists, car enthusiasts, etc… This property and its homes are totally refreshing and unique for the area, a total pleasure to behold and a compelling and comfortable place to live.
