Description
A rare opportunity to own a masterfully reimagined circa-1861 post-and-beam barn, transformed
into a one-of-a-kind luxury estate set on 89 pristine acres in the heart of Columbia County. Surrounded by sweeping pastoral views, open fields, and tranquil natural beauty, this exceptional property offers privacy, scale, and timeless craftsmanship. The residence spans approximately 6,000 square feet across two levels, seamlessly blending historic character with modern sophistication. Soaring ceilings, exposed beams, and wide-plank wood floors milled from trees harvested directly from the property create an authentic connection to the land and the home's heritage. At the heart of the home is a dramatic great room, ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings, complemented by a chef's kitchen outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances, custom cabinetry, and premium finishes throughout. Thoughtful design ensures effortless flow for both everyday living and large gatherings.
The home features six generously sized bedrooms and five well-appointed baths, offering
flexibility for family, guests, or work-from-home needs. An elevator*provides convenient access
to all levels, enhancing comfort and long-term livability.
Designed for recreation and relaxation, the home includes a game room and dedicated arcade
room, creating a private entertainment retreat rarely found in country estates.
The fully insulated and heated lower level spans approximately 2,500 square feet and
features a five-bay garage with parking for up to seven vehicles. This expansive,
versatile space offers endless possibilities—ideal for a home gym, workshop, studio, or
even a private golf simulator.
Outdoors, the land unfolds in every direction—open meadows, a serene pond**, and
uninterrupted views that change beautifully with the seasons. Whether envisioned as a private
family compound, weekend retreat, or legacy property, the setting is both inspiring and
irreplaceable.

* Converted 1840 post-and-beam barn
