Welcome to a space truly designed for easy living, warm gatherings, and quiet everyday moments. This versatile residence offers three spacious bedrooms--including a convenient main or lower-level bedroom alongside a full bathroom--complemented by a light-filled, open-concept layout beneath soaring vaulted ceilings, recessed lighting, and Andersen windows. You'll love having two extra large rooms that offer plenty of space for a dedicated home office, hobby area, or whatever best fits your lifestyle. Step outside to a private, fully fenced, beautifully landscaped backyard that makes weekend barbecues, morning coffee, or relaxing evenings under the stars an absolute delight. Cozy up on crisp nights by the impressive soapstone wood stove, or head upstairs to a primary suite featuring an en suite bathroom, a walk-in closet, and a private balcony overlooking the grounds. Conveniently located near Hudson Valley gems like Shaupeneak Ridge Park, Black Creek Preserve, the Walkway Over the Hudson, and John Burroughs Sanctuary, this home effortlessly blends modern sustainability, comfort, and character. Recent improvements and upgrades include eco-conscious solar panels (2016), a rebuilt wraparound Trex deck (2021), seamless engineered hardwood flooring on the main level and plush primary suite carpeting (2025), along with beautifully remodeled upper-level bathrooms (2026), alongside geothermal heating, a whole-house water softener, and a fully replaced chimney to keep everything running smoothly.
