Not only is this THE classic example of a pre-war (revolutionary) Dutch Colonial, it is also, incredibly, perched on a hill overlooking fields, forest and the Catskill mountains.
Every detail is worth of heaping praise. The hardware alone could fill a tome. The panelling, the intricacy surrounding the fireplaces, the moldings so expertly curved. Patina on the floorboards that radiates warmth. The fireplaces, large enough for a very large log. The center hall, that runs the length of the main house and addition, straight into the view. The kitchen, wonderfully applianced, and set to see the sunsets. The dining room flows to the den. The living room, formal if only because of the raised panels and fireplace. Upstairs the bedrooms gaze out east and west, sunrise and sunset. The master outperforms the term. There might be a secret bedroom on the third floor.
The grounds are expansive and inviting. Stone walls surround the house, the pool, the playhouse. The barns offer far more than storage, a wonderful apartment/office above. And, perhaps best of all, that view... that marvelous, magnificent, awe inspiring Catskill view.
$ 3,800,000.
