Accepted Offer as of 08/01/25. Step back in time to the 1860s with this charming, well-preserved home, lovingly cared for by the current owners for the past 39 years. Key updates include a durable metal roof and a new furnace, both installed in 2018, and a recently added hot water heater from 2022.The original two-story structure boasts spacious rooms, and a thoughtfully designed living room addition (21x13) was incorporated in the 1960s. The expansive interiors and high ceilings are sure to impress.While there's potential to modernize and harmonize this historic gem with the conveniences of the 21st century, it sits beautifully on a generous 1-acre lot. Conveniently located near the Wassaic Train Station, the Harlem Valley Rail Trail, and the charming towns of Millerton, Millbrook, and Sharon and Kent, CT, this home is ideally situated. The area offers vibrant farm markets, farm stands, and a variety of cultural and recreational activities, making Amenia a delightful place to call home. The seller will only consider cash offers.
