About This Home

Picture yourself settling into 170 Plains Road, where this thoughtfully designed 5-bedroom, 2-bath home captures everything that makes New Paltz special. The property enjoys a prime position with lovely views of the Taliaferro CSA farm—a family-owned, certified organic operation—and mountain vistas beyond, while keeping you just moments from town's bustling restaurants, charming shops, and cultural attractions.

Step through the oversized grand entry and feel the space open up before you - an inviting living area where a wood-burning fireplace creates the perfect gathering spot, flowing effortlessly into the dining area and connecting to a stunning custom Apuzzo kitchen that was completely transformed in 2018. Whether you're whipping up weeknight meals or hosting dinner parties, this space responds beautifully to how you actually live, with generous windows framing the pastoral scenery of organic farmland and mountain peaks beyond.

The main level keeps daily life smooth with a primary suite featuring its own ensuite bathroom, plus two additional bedrooms and a family bath that handle busy mornings with ease. But here's where the home really shines - descend to the expansive lower level and discover a world of possibilities. Open craft areas blend with office space and an entertainment zone, all brightened by large windows and sliding glass doors that connect directly to your patio and beautifully level backyard.

A convenient laundry room handles all your household needs right where you need it. The flexibility here is remarkable. Two more bedrooms on the lower level, rough-in plumbing for another bathroom, and a completely separate entrance with its own generous entryway mean you could easily accommodate visiting family or explore rental income opportunities.

Your location puts adventure right at your doorstep with direct rail trail access from the backyard - imagine stepping out for morning bike rides or afternoon hikes without any hassle. Meanwhile, the short hop to downtown keeps you plugged into New Paltz's vibrant community energy. Smart recent upgrades like energy-efficient mini-split HVAC, updated spaces, and low-maintenance landscaping mean you can focus on enjoying life rather than endless projects.

With spacious front and back decks extending your living space outdoors, this is a home that adapts to your rhythm while keeping you connected to the natural beauty and sustainable farming heritage that makes the Hudson Valley irresistible. *Square footage is estimated and needs to be verified by the buyer's agent

*Plains Road is primed and poised for the impending connection to the New Paltz municipal water and sewer system

*50-acre organic farm across the street has a conservation easement as farm/open space in perpetuity.
