With windows on three sides, this space gets beautiful, shifting light throughout the day. A large living room, laundry room, and full bath complete the first floor. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms, one is ensuite and two share the full bath in the hall. The baths are streamlined and luxe, with gorgeous hardware and radiant heated floors. The modern, clean lines that characterize the interiors are beautifully juxtaposed to the pastoral, natural landscape outside. The barn is two stories and built into the hillside, it would make an amazing studio or guest house for the next owner. The property is beautifully kept and the house completely turn key, just 2h north of NYC and 15m to Hudson, Rhinebeck and Amtrak.
