About This Home

As of June 2025

In a bucolic setting in Germantown, this stunning modern farmhouse sits amongst rolling hills on a quiet country road. The five acre parcel has a beautiful pond and is made up of open green fields and forest, and there is a barn with a new standing seam metal roof. The 3BD 2.5BA main house was built in 2020. You'll find high ceilings and white oak flooring throughout, the layout is well considered and comfortable. A large eat-in kitchen sits at the back of the house, looking out through a wall of windows and glass doors to the pastoral property. An incredible dining room sits on the far end of the home, with a vaulted ceiling and views to the east and west. With windows on three sides, this space gets beautiful, shifting light throughout the day. A large living room, laundry room, and full bath complete the first floor. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms, one is ensuite and two share the full bath in the hall. The baths are streamlined and luxe, with gorgeous hardware and radiant heated floors. The modern, clean lines that characterize the interiors are beautifully juxtaposed to the pastoral, natural landscape outside. The barn is two stories and built into the hillside, it would make an amazing studio or guest house for the next owner. The property is beautifully kept and the house completely turn key, just 2h north of NYC and 15m to Hudson, Rhinebeck and Amtrak.
