With 132 acres creating a peaceful and private country setting, Bogardus Hall is one of the great period houses of Dutchess County. Originally built in 1781 and expanded in 1871, it has undergone a well-thought and masterful expansion transforming it into a striking Georgian country home ready as a year-round or weekend getaway. With 9,100 move-in ready square feet, there's space to indulge everyone, including a kitchen wing with a butler's pantry, sitting area, fireplace and mudroom with full bath and side entry; a brick Great Room and a library/study with fireplace (perfect for work at home). The second floor includes a beautiful master suite and 2 spacious bedroom suites. The third floor is a large recreation space and the lower level has a wine cellar and a second office. Outside, a spacious terrace overlooks the expansive level lawns and blooming gardens. Bordered by the trout-stocked Webatuck Creek, the setting is picture-perfect. A 2-bedroom guest/caretaker's house, a garage with another office, full bath and a carwash finish out this incredible setting. Minutes to Rhinebeck, Millbrook and Sharon, CT, this private retreat is less than 2 hours to NYC.
