12 Meadow Ln, Cragsmoor, NY 12420

This enchanting home was once a private Catholic oratory that was converted to a residence in 1962. The charming rustic exterior belies the updated enchantment within. The living room with its polished concrete floor and soaring ceiling was added in 2003 with a long wall of windows overlooking the lovely blue stone patio, terraced gardens, and seasonal waterfall. The family room overlooks the kitchen. It was used as a dining room by the current owner and has a bright new hickory floor and fine wood stove. The completely updated kitchen retains many of the captivating elements of the chapel such as the altar and sanctuary with their original painted Latin inscriptions. Modern upgrades include a Wolf stove, a white apron sink, spacious island, and pass-through to the living room. The antique scrolled metal grill covering a window looks out to the bistro inspired dining area which reveals a delightful concrete floor with inlaid objects from the owner's global travels. The living room has radiant heat in the floor and a wood burning stove. It also has a cast iron white double sink which has been used as a bar. The main bedroom with en suite bath is spacious and heated by electric radiators. The second bedroom has a delightful little reading room with arched doorway that was the original vestibule of the chapel. There is also a small sleeping loft accessible by steps from the family room.
