This charming house on a hill is surrounded by the lush landscape - and is only a few minutes to either Kingston or Rosendale (with plenty of amenities and ways to get to/from NYC!), making it a pretty perfect location for full-time or weekend buyers. The home is tucked back from a windy country road that's chock full of lovely old homes, and one of the entrances to the rail trail for biking and walking is a short distance away. A charming outbuilding with electricity and plenty of windows is currently being used as a workshop but could be repurposed for guests, writing, yoga, etc. The first thing you see when you walk in the home itself is an incredible three-season porch leading to a spacious living room. The views from the eat-in kitchen and small back patio are one of the loveliest moments in this property, giving you a sense of privacy and being surrounded by nature. There are hardwood floors and plenty of historic details in the 3 ample-sized bedrooms - and 2 1/2 bathrooms, including one in a master suite, maximize the relatively small and easy-to-maintain square footage.
