About 59-62 Mitchell Lane

At the end of a zero-traffic road (town-maintained) sits this recently remodeled colonial (circa 1873) and adjacent finished barn/studio. For decades, this 54-acre property served as a family compound where multiple generations would gather to seek respite from the bustling city-based life. Reached via winding country roads that weave their way over rolling farmland, the house sits perched on a hill surrounded by both flat and gently rolling meadows and a large private pond. Landscaped gardens, cultivated over decades, produce all manner of flowers that bloom throughout the growing season. The sunroom (part of the 2021 remodel) serves as the primary entrance to the property with a large wall of windows that frame the sprawling meadow and pond. Directly adjacent is the vintage, retro style eat-in-kitchen with high ceilings and windows and a skylight that bathe the space in natural light. Additional interior highlights include a large ensuite, ground floor primary (also part of the 2021 remodel) with large windows, two walk-in closets, wide plank floors in the original portion of the structure, a formal dining room, and a living room with the original fireplace. The top floor includes two large bedrooms and a shared bathroom. Multiple sliding doors off the kitchen and primary bedroom lead to tiered patio space with three separate areas including a lounge area on the top tier, a grill on the middle tier and an outdoor dining area on the lowest tier. The large meadows provide plenty of space on which the kids/adults/dogs can run around. The spring-fed, swimmable pond provides welcome relief in the hot summer months and acts as a permanent scenic backdrop. While no permanent hiking trails exist, the nature of the woods allow for low key wandering and/or trailblazing with minimal effort. Across the road sits the spacious barn/studio. While currently serving as a studio and recreational space, it could easily be converted into an additional 3BD dwelling. The 54 acres is comprised of a 40-acre parcel which contains the house and barn and an adjacent 14-acre buildable parcel with plenty of road frontage. Just 11 minutes to Red Hook, 14 minutes to Tivoli, 18 minutes to Rhinebeck and 22 minutes to the Rhinecliff train station. In close proximity to various farmstands and u-pick operations.
