Description
Stunning antique stone estate property, circa 1699, with total privacy sited on over 49 acres, down a long meandering drive, overlooking ponds and through meadows and woods can be your dream come true. Ripe for restoration is this almost 4000 sq ft plus stone and brick structure awaiting your personal vision. Many rooms retain the old plaster walls along with their historic flavor. The lower level (above grade) has spacious guest space/sitting room/potential private office space with an efficiency kitchen and an updated full bathroom. The second floor primary bedroom has been restored to a comfortable space and is currently being used as an office. All else is a canvas to create a family compound to be loved and cherished for years to come. The 3rd floor library and family room boast stunning views across the grounds.
Antique barn is multi-level, and has original log beams and wood floors. Need a studio, a guest house? There is even a pre-existing well and septic at this structure. In addition there is a charming chicken coop that could be a sweet studio.
Explore of the many walking paths on your own nature preserve. The magnificent pond is filled with fish, and green and brown herons and turtles abound, along with the usual deer, bear, wild turkeys and more.
Heartbroken to be leaving this magical property the current owner has had to return to England and is ready to turn the stewardship of this property over to a new custodian.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI can't say enough positive things about J Watson Bailey. When we first moved to the Hudson Valley we sent our daughter to a private school. After two years there we all decided that it was time to make a change to the public school system. Our daughter is a creative and we were wanting more than just an academic focus, but more of a well rounded experience. The first day she came home, she said, "Mom this was the right choice". The school has some of the most invested teachers I have come across, has ample extracurriculars (art, chorus, band, sports, theater, afterschool clubs, etc), the curriculum is exciting and our daughter is eager to learn, the principal is super engaged with the community, the student base is diverse, anytime we have a question or concern, we are answered immediately - I could go on and on. I am not sure why this school gets such low marks, but I wanted to be a positive voice for this school and our experience. So grateful we made the decision to send our daughter here, she is thriving. Thank you J Watson Bailey!Parent Review2y ago - Kingston High School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son is a 2017 graduate. He graduated in top ten of the graduating class. He was captain of crew team. All honors and AP. Started the robotics club and got accepted to almost every ivy and top tier college he applied to. My point? If your kid has been taught the correct priorities and wants to succeed he or she will get a top notch education. If they don’t have support from their parents and taught the importance of education they will end up doing drugs sitting on Broadway wall. Get involved in your own child’s curriculum. Teachers can’t do it all even teachers as devoted as those at KHS.Parent Review8y ago - Robert R Graves School
