56 W Willets Dr, Red Hook, NY 12571

Here's a recipe for contented living in the Hudson Valley. Start with a peaceful and secluded setting in the woods convenient to Red Hook and Rhinebeck. Add an upgraded and expanded '80s contemporary home that features a generous amount of living space in large, light-filled rooms. Garnish with meticulous maintenance and lovely plantings, and top it off with your own running brook and a community pond. Nicely spaced evergreens mask the driveway and house from the road but open up to allow plenty of sun to the house and yard. The open foyer; which features sunlight from both levels, stylish chandelier, and open staircase; sets the tone for the rest of the house. All of the rooms save one offer views of the yard; and there are three entries to the back yard, which is fenced and surrounded by woods. There's plenty of space here to adapt to various uses - rooms currently used for office, library, living, dining, and breakfast can all be put to other uses as required. There's plenty of storage here, as well - the heated garage and the attic are both insulated; the mechanicals coexist with the clothes washer & dryer in the 1st-floor laundry where there is also extra space. The entire house is effectively insulated with combined electric and propane heat sources to permit maximum control and efficiency. And for atmosphere, there's a toasty Vermont Castings WinterWarm Fireplace System in the living room!
