Located on a bucolic 7.5 acres this farmhouse built in 1875 has a great renovated eat-in kicthen with Corian countertops, two good full bathrooms and two useable bedrooms (the other two need renovation). There is still work to be done but with a fabulous barn and an additional workshop building this property along the Ten Mile Creek is a slice of paradise. There is a room with a separate entrance on the first floor that can be either a family room or an at-home office. The owners use only a woodstove to heat the entire home, However, the Buderus boiler in the basement is hooked up (some pipes may need to be replaced where renovation was being done). Located 2 hours from NYC and 35 minutes from the Hudson train station it is a perfect retreat. Windham Ski Mountain and NY State hiking trails are less than 30 minutes away.
