20 Long Dock Rd, Rhinebeck, NY 12572

A unique property in every way, from the historic significance to the unique design, beautiful well thought out gardens and the views of the Hudson River. This home is quite possibly the oldest home in Dutchess County. The original stone structure of what is believed to have been a Dutch Colonial home was built in 1708. Over the next 300 years the home has gone through many renovations. In the 1860's a wood frame addition, equal in size to the original home, was documented. The most recent owners did a large renovation in the 1990's. The renovations were done to enhance the charm of the home and make it more modern. Interior renovations included a kitchen with a greenhouse dining area, master suite, some windows and mechanicals. A heated 2 car, detached garage with plumbing and electric was also added. The garage has an open studio space above with cathedral ceilings and beautiful views of the river. The previous owners were avid gardeners and took advantage of the uniqueness of the terrain. Well thought out garden areas of hardscaping including stone walls, concrete ponds & waterfalls, custom cedar fencing and patios were created. In order to continue to garden during the cold months they added a greenhouse to the garage. A truly beautiful property along the banks of the Hudson River and adjacent to protected farmland. Minutes to Amtrak and the Village of Rhinebeck.
