Tucked away on a quiet country road, this peaceful farmhouse sits on fifteen acres of native gardens, expansive lawns, wildflower meadows, blue stone patio and porches, and private forest with trails leading to the second spring-fed pond. Enter the house through an airy mudroom, then the Great Room lays out before you. The patio and pond draw you to the far end of the room, where French doors let you out to this idyllic space. The vaulted ceiling, wood-burning stove & exposed beams add to the charm. The open kitchen was designed by a chef, with soapstone counters, a center cooking island, classic cabinetry, and multi-use oven and stove. The farmhouse sink connects the kitchen to the light-filled dining room, giving the first floor a loft-like feeling and flow.
There are two full baths on the first floor and three bedrooms, all with French doors leading out to the deck. There is a large, private living space on the second floor, which the owners use a primary bedroom. It has French doors opening out to a juliet balcony with views of the pastoral property.
Over the past fifty-five years, the house has had two owners who have lovingly cared for the property. Starting in 1970, the first owner bought more land and seamlessly added onto the original 1880's farmhouse with new living quarters. Since 2015, the current owners renovated the house with new roofs, insulation, sheet rock, painting, electrical, two new furnaces, air conditioning, washer-dryer, water well, filter, plumbing, irrigation, stone masonry, septic, and fiber optic. They extensively relandscaped the grounds with local arborists and gardeners to cultivate perennial, native plantings, while preserving historical, specimen trees.
54 Fowler Lake Road is a turn-key property with idyllic charm. It is perfectly located, just minutes away from Art Omi, Bartlett House, Hawthorne Valley, Chatham, Kinderhook, Valatie, and 15 minutes to Hudson/Amtrak and 2 hours to NYC.
