Experience this mid-1800's East Chatham home built from local stone with wood clapboard siding. Lovingly updated, by the architect owner, in the early 2000's, it is now poised for the next chapter of its storied history. Set back on a quiet country road, the home is nestled on almost eight acres and surrounded on all four sides by state protected and preserved lands. A combination of stone patios, wood deck and screened-in porch connect the home's interior to the surrounding gardens. From each of these outdoor rooms, one can experience the privacy afforded by mature landscaping that also frame long-distance pastoral views. A stone path leads to a stone landing at the home's entrance. Convenient to the entrance, and part of the home is a functioning garden shed. The two-story home with a walk-out lower level has a full bath on both the first and second floor. The partially finished basement could easily accommodate a third full bath. Central to the first floor is the kitchen, with dining area off to one side and a beautifully screened-in porch to the other. Direct access to a deck off the dining room offers yet another choice for morning coffee or entertaining. Cozy up to the wood burning fireplace in the living room with natural lighting streaming in on all three sides. The second floor has two bedrooms that share a full bath. Each room gives a sense of spaciousness with comfortable ceiling heights and again, filled with natural light, True country living, offering a sense of peace and tranquility from every corner of the property and home. All within a short drive to Chatham and the Berkshires and 30 minutes to Albany and Hudson.
