200 Sundale Road, Accord, NY 12404

On a sleepy backcountry road, down a long driveway and perched upon a wooded hillside sits 200 Sundale, a beautifully upgraded modern farmhouse where generous interiors, exceptional outdoor living and a storybook forest setting come together with unusual ease. Built by a respected local builder and meticulously maintained and improved by its current owners, the property feels both substantial and immediately livable. At the center of the main level is a sizable living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, with exposed wood beams adding warmth and architectural character. The newly renovated kitchen is equally impressive, with a Wolf range, double pantries, abundant custom cabinetry and an expansive center island that gives the room both presence and practicality. The kitchen opens directly to a full dining room, creating an effortless flow for everyday living and larger gatherings. Directly adjacent to the kitchen is one of the home's defining features: an oversized screened porch with automated screens that disappear at the push of a button, transforming the space from a bug-free three-season room into an open-air porch. It is an exceptional extension of the living space and a place designed for long dinners, quiet mornings and summer evenings ensconced in the sounds and smells of nature. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with an en suite bath and an extensive custom closet system spanning an entire wall. The two additional bedrooms are also generously proportioned with one outfitted with another custom closet system. The lower level adds abundant finished flex space that currently serves as a den but could also function as additional sleeping quarters, a home gym or recreation space. The adjacent wine cellar is purpose-built with a dedicated cooling system and closed-cell foam insulation to maintain a consistent temperature for 1400+ bottles of wine storage. Outside, the setting is every bit as compelling. A fenced lawn creates a defined area for play and pets, while a large bluestone patio sits beneath towering pines at the edge of a landscape filled with a fire pit, ferns and mature woodland. The effect is private, quiet and almost cinematic, a true forest retreat. Thoughtful landscaping and a recently built two-car garage further enhance the property. The current owners have made extensive improvements including a renovated kitchen, custom closet systems, hardwood flooring, whole-house generator, new air-conditioning system, security system, UV water filtration, upgraded lighting and fixtures, new landscaping and numerous mechanical and cosmetic improvements. The result is a home that has been comprehensively cared for rather than simply updated. 200 Sundale is the kind of country house that works equally well as a full-time residence or weekend retreat: gracious in scale, highly functional and surrounded by a landscape that makes the property feel worlds away while having various points of interest within 10-15 minutes (Inness, Westwind Orchard, Arrowood Brewery, Ravenwood, Accord Social and Accord Market, etc.)
