Property Description

Rare opportunity to own a piece of history. Set on a knoll, with expansive vistas overlooking farmland and the distant mountains, 592 County Road 6 was originally built as a cooperage in 1840, now a charming country home with the rare mix of midcentury and vintage vibe. Updated kitchen and bathrooms mix seamlessly with the retro style of the home. Downstairs you will find a chef's kitchen, dining area, bath, living room with fireplace and an office/playroom/studio facing the hill. . Upstairs are two large bedrooms, bath and a linen closet. Every room offers a vantage point to the extensive scenic panoramas. Stone walkout, heated basement can serve as a creative space. Watch the eagles soar while enjoying your morning coffee on the extensive decking or stone patio. A pair of nesting bald eagles are in a massive tree across the road, overlooking the Rondout nearby. The shed was built in 2022 with storage shelving and enough room for a workbench and tools, and is fully insulated and can be used year-round. The shed is electrified with sufficient power to service an electric vehicle charging station. The hill behind and to the left of the house is predominantly black walnut and ash trees. The two large trees on the circular driveway are maple and oak. Rag Mama Rag song by The Band, was recorded in the house next door. Walk down the road to collect your veggies for dinner from the local CSA. Rondout river is close by for fishing, kayaking and canoeing.
