Description
At the end of a drive that meanders through pastures and horse paddocks in the heart of Dutchess County you will find Touchstone, a hidden sanctuary that combines dazzling detail and elegant ease. Touchstone was built with antique architectural components salvaged from a century old home, giving it the feel of history alongside the comfort of modernity. Large windows and French doors invite light and air into every room. There are four fireplaces, a formal dining room with butler’s pantry, library, and beautiful living room. The country kitchen with connecting sitting room opens through French doors onto the stone terrace and pool. Beyond the kitchen, a fire-warmed family room accesses a covered porch and lush lawn. The polished wood-topped kitchen island infuses the room with warmth. The primary suite on the second-floor invites pastoral views in three directions. Also on that floor are three more bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Two large additional rooms on the third floor can be used as studios, office space, or playrooms. The third floor has a full bath as well. The pool and terrace have day-long sun and a covered porch provides relaxation and sunset views. A boot room with thoughtfully designed built-in storage and a sink is a touch of inspired convenience when it comes to country living. In the basement, there is a wine cellar and rec room, and above the three car garage a one-bedroom apartment. With open-concept full kitchen and living space, it can accommodate guests from afar. Protected views of Stissing Mountain, gently sloping lawns, and flowering trees and bushes make every outdoor space an opportunity for leisure, play, and pleasure. An architecturally charming bunny house in the raised-bed garden simply accentuates the delight of this property where the living is easy in all seasons. Convenient to Millbrook, Pine Plains, and Rhinebeck, Touchstone offers tranquility just minutes from the best Hudson Valley restaurants, shopping districts, and outdoor opportunities.
