154 Old Kings Hwy Stone Ridge, NY 12484

Is it new or old? The Finne House, an 1830 home built in the Federal style in Salem, NY has been carefully preserved and reconstructed with an Italianate addition in the Rest Plaus Historic Disctrict in Stone Ridge. What’s old are the wide board floors and the beams and the intricate architectural details that just can’t be replicated today, including the staircase with its magnificent spindles and rail. What’s new are the systems, from heat pump HVAC to spray-foam insulation, thermopane windows, clapboard siding, standing seam metal roof, and all the guts of the place. The home’s layout is ideal for today’s more casual lifestyle. The kitchen, with soapstone countertops and an impressive array of appliances, including a wine fridge, is spacious and generously proportioned. There’s plenty of room to host large dinners and a French door leads to the screened porch and deck. The living room is graced by windows on three sides, allowing for plenty of natural light to stream in, and there’s a wood burning fireplace, wet bar and loads of aesthetic appeal. A back hall with a discreet powder room connects the kitchen and living room. Ascending the dramatic staircase, an antique paned window provides a glimpse toward the rear of the property and the crystal-clear swimming pond. The spacious primary suite is light and bright, the bathroom is soothing, and there’s a private deck which also looks over the property and pond. Two additional bedrooms share an equally attractive bathroom. The covered carport enjoys an EV charger and a door directly into the kitchen, making it easy to bring in groceries. The Finne House is centrally located with easy access to the hamlets of Stone Ridge and High Falls, Inness, Westwind Orchard, Arrowood Brewery, Mohonk, Minnewaska and vibrant Kingston.
