1524 State Route 17A, Warwick, NY 10990

Turn of the last century - a wonderfully preserved four-bedroom farmhouse. This 1900's original home has carefully held on to its old character. This becomes evident in its original staircase and banister, as well as preserved old bubbly and wavey windows (original glass) in the original front rooms, or painted old, original floorboards in the front two upper bedrooms. The rocking chair front porch adds to the old character. The rear of the home, built in the 1970's, has an open concept layout. A large family room with wood-burning fireplace as well as the large kitchen are flooded with natural light. This area conveniently connects to the back patio - a great vantage point to observe all that happens in the private back yard. The level grass out back invites for kicking a ball or stretching out a volley ball net. Magical walkways let you meander throughout your very private three acres and let you forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life. These walking paths are all rather level and also free of rock outcroppings. Left mostly to their natural state, just the rider mower assists in keeping the paths free to walk, run, and find a quiet hideaway. Bring your artist's easel or writing book. Find a spot to relax. The transit bus into NYC is steps away from your front door (by the Bellvale Country Store). Being on a State road has the added benefit of having the municipality clear snow in front of your home first - before side roads are tackled for the job. Being on/near the major road also provides access to public utilities such as water, sewer, and natural gas. The homeowner has - by choice - only brought in natural gas to date. Three very private acres span this flag lot (very little road frontage). A two car garage and added shed complete the offering. This free-standing 'barn' could easily hold two large cars and a woodworking shop. It can also be converted to stables, if your search for a new home includes holding some farm animals. The property is zoned to be home to up to three horses. An animal enclosure in the back yard was recently a thriving chicken coop - yet it can now get removed if requested, as the chickens have been moved. The above ground pool has been well maintained and is sparkling clean - waiting to cool off joyful swimmers during the hot summer months. The third, fully-floored attic level has standard stairs, and what to do with the large space is left to the imagination. The storage portion of the attic houses the newly installed central air conditioning equipment with outlets to all rooms on the bedroom level, leaving plenty of area for empty luggage and holiday bins. This is not your typical home. Rather it is full of the character that Warwick has a reputation to embrace. The property is expansive, yet cozy. The home is a blank canvas waiting for a new owner to make it their own !!
