Maplestone is a sprawling and elegant 18th century stone home and finished barn near to the Mohonk Preserve, Minnewaska State Park, wineries, farms, cultural venues and transportation to and from NYC. The current owners dedicated themselves to a complete renovation project with the aim of introducing state-of-the-art systems and amenities while preserving the home's architectural integrity; wide board floors, exposed interior stone walls, and period details endure. Rooms are spacious and many, yet the home exudes intimacy and offers plenty of nooks and crannies too. Flanking the main entry hall are the living room, with beamed ceilings, and the library, each with its own brick fireplace. Down a couple of steps is the inviting dining room with brick floors and yet another fireplace, this one of stone and brick, and impressively large. The kitchen is wonderful "" radiant heat, beautiful cabinetry, plenty of storage and workspace, and best of all, it's the kind of kitchen where people love to congregate. Thanks to the late 19th century addition, there's a gracious rear entry hall, off of which is a bedroom suite that opens up through French doors to a brick patio and beautiful gardens. Three additional bedrooms are up on the second floor; each has its own gas fireplace and full bath, and there's a useful home office/den as well. Among the joys of Maplestone are the views of the beautiful property, gardens, patios and outdoor "rooms" from the inside, and the ability to enjoy those spaces and the Plattekill Creek on a beautiful day, whether alone or entertaining guests. The first floor of the period barn has been renovated and is the ideal spot to host large parties and there's a guest space with kitchen and bathroom on the second floor that, with some renovation, can be put back into use. Maplestone is ideal for the discerning buyer who is looking for a property of integrity, significance and grace, as well for those who might be interested in opening a B+B.
