234 East Fallkill Road, Hyde Park, NY 12538

Fallkill, a late 18th-century Hudson Valley gem, sits on almost three magical acres with stone walls, an antique barn, and a seasonal stream, all overlooking rolling meadows and a low-density forest. The home has been expertly updated, with all its historic charm still intact on the outside and a completely reimagined interior. The setting is quintessential upstate countryside, with the house sitting on one of the prettiest roads in Dutchess County.The home perfectly balances moody, historic interiors with bright, modern spaces. The main level has a new addition with enormous windows that features a modern open-plan kitchen outfitted with top-quality appliances, a dining and living area, and a casual gathering space that walks out to a large deck with idyllic views. The original circa 1700s living space centers around a sleek fireplace with wood beams, the most exquisite original wood floors, and a small section of exposed brick, adding textural detail. A full bathroom completes the first floor, with the three bedrooms and another full bath on the second floor. Every tile, piece of hardware, lighting, and finishings throughout the home have been hand-picked for their quality, longevity, and unique style.The outside feels very private, with a split rail fence extending throughout the property's border and low-maintenance and exceptionally charming landscaping. A newly built stone patio with a gas outdoor fireplace and a new outdoor shower blend in perfectly with the exteriors. Two small historic barns could easily become future workshops, and restored stone walls are peppered throughout the property. Fallkill sits amidst a peaceful neighborhood, where weekends can be enjoyed visiting Mills Mansion and its grounds, dropping by the farmer's market in Rhinebeck, and taking long walks and bike rides near the property. The home is less than 15 minutes to Rhinebeck, under 20 minutes from Rhinecliff Amtrak Station, and an hour and a half from New York City.
