This serene 5-acre property boasts open meadows and mature trees, offering a tranquil retreat that feels a world away, yet remains highly accessible to the best of the Hudson Valley and Berkshires. Its proximity to the Taconic State Parkway and Interstate 90 ensures an easy retreat from both New York City and Boston. Locally, you'll delight in the charming town of Chatham's cafes, restaurants, bars, and a burgeoning art museum scene, with Queechy Lake just a 10-minute drive away. Popular destinations like Hudson and Great Barrington are also a short beautiful drive away.
Inside, discover the ease of single-floor living, featuring a spacious living room with a high vaulted ceiling and a warming wood-burning fireplace. The perfectly updated kitchen is both tasteful and functional, complemented by three generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The full-footprint basement, partially finished, presents an excellent opportunity to create additional bedrooms, home theater or even a self contained inlaw suite.
True to its agricultural surroundings, this perfect home is perched above grounds that are mostly flat and highly versatile for a variety of activities. A charming chicken coop is discreetly tucked behind a 2 car garage, inviting you to embrace the farm-to-table lifestyle of the area. A barn sits across the field behind the home providing a bucolic view and awaits your vision for an art studio, guest house or stable. Truly a fantastic value for those looking to find peace of mind in their own private Hudson Valley oasis at a remarkable value.
