812 Sluyter Rd, Poestenkill, NY 12140

By the time written legal deeds first appear in the area in 1792, the Farm at Sluyter Hill was established & prospering. On 100+ acres the property is comprised of an antique farmhouse, a post & beam barn & a guest cottage. Set into the hillside the sprawling main house is welcoming, comfortable & unpretentious-- the epitome of understated elegance. With four bedrooms and two full baths, you'll find three fireplaces, exposed hand hewn beams & playful terracotta tiles throughout. The light filled kitchen anchors the home with a vintage farmhouse sink & french doors spilling out onto the garden. In the guest cottage an open plan kitchen & living room border a single bedroom, and down the spiral staircase you'll find a cozy sitting room centered around a wood stove. Wandering downstream you'll find the post & beam barn-- built with exceptional quality from standing wood on the property with horse stalls, antique windows of interesting shapes & sizes, and a pottery studio heated by a wood stove. Amongst the Appalachian oak-pine forest that makes up the dynamic property there are two miles of trails, 5 acres of pasture and tributaries of the Newfoundland Creek headwaters. 2hr 45m to NYC, 45m to Hudson, 25m to Albany and 20m to Amtrak.
