On the market for the first time in 50 years. Set on 18.6 acres surrounded by the historic Rokeby Estate (300 acres of land, forever conserved free from development, by descendants of the Astor family), this midcentury home offers the perfect getaway. Approach the home via a long driveway that winds through rolling hills and open fields past a large fishing pond. The rear of the property is lightly wooded providing enduring views of neighboring pastures. The home has over 3,300 square feet of living space and offers an open floor plan that flows seamlessly from the library through the living room and into the dining area. The living room and library boast soaring ceilings and share a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Sliding doors line the rear wall of each room where they open to a generous wraparound deck and also serve to flood the space with light. In addition, there is 440 square feet of lofted space accessed from the dining area. The large eat-in kitchen is abutted by two bedrooms and a full bath as well as a generous pantry space. The primary bedroom is privately situated down a hallway found off the living / dining areas where views of the rolling grounds - including the pond - are captured. The finished basement reveals an inviting den with a wood-burning stove. A laundry room, workshop, and wine room are all found adjacent to the den. In addition, there is an in-ground pool, a separate two-car garage with attic space and an outbuilding for grounds equipment to complete the bucolic grounds. Fully owned solar panels and a whole-house generator also convey. The estate is located 5 minutes to Bard College and Red Hook Village, and 10 minutes to Rhinebeck, and the Rhinecliff Amtrak station. It is also situated minutes to the Kingston-Rhinecliff Bridge, 15 minutes to Kingston, and under 40 minutes to Poughkeepsie making it an ideal destination to enjoy all the abundance that the Hudson Valley has to offer.
