Gorgeous 1822 Farmhouse and gardens, featured in Better Homes & Gardens Magazine
Evoking the charm of the Colonial American countryside, this upscale and beautifully restored 1822 home features exquisite grounds with a clear flowing creek, natural forest surroundings, and spectacularly maintained gardens. With its gorgeous luxury restoration and updated elements the home was recently featured in Better Homes & Gardens Magazine. Situated on a quiet, dead-end country road, less than two miles from where George Washington mustered his troops in the Revolutionary War, this is truly a historic storybook retreat. Located only 90 minutes from New York City by car or Metro-North Train, this 5-bedroom house boasts 3 queen beds, 1 inflatable queen and 1 twin bed. With amenities like a pool, fast WiFi, a separate office cottage (formerly the historic cooking cottage), a fire pit, a creekside reading pavilion, a small fruit orchard and food garden (help yourself!), and a cozy living room with fireplace and overstuffed high-end furnishings, guests can unwind and relax in a charming environment of unparalleled natural beauty with no other homes in sight, all less than a mile from the historic Appalachian Trail.
