Description
On just over ten acres of rolling hillside and pasture sits this quintessential Hudson Valley farmhouse. The oldest section of the home dates back to the mid 1700's, quite early for this region, while the Federal Style facade and front rooms were added c1850. The kitchen was a 2017 renovation the sink perfectly placed to overlook the Roeliff Jansen Kill, which borders the property and is stocked with brown trout by the DEC each spring. There is also a very fine swimming hole that remains deep even when the waters run low! Rhododendrons border the front porch and bloom in early Spring, cueing the return of summer. Inside, the house lives comfortably. Silvernails Farm is both whimsical and practical, a house built with integrity and a rare eye for aesthetics and proportion. 2h to NYC.
