Description
Seller says Bring All Offers!! There is something magical about an old house, and this enchanting 1857 Eyebrow Colonial is ready to capture your heart. Gracefully set on nearly an acre in the heart of the Village of Valatie, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is filled with the warmth, craftsmanship, and enduring character that have made Hudson Valley historic homes so sought after.From the moment you arrive, the covered front porch welcomes you to slow down, sip your morning coffee, and enjoy the peaceful rhythm of village life. Step inside and you'll discover beautiful wood floors, custom built-ins, generously proportioned rooms, and the kind of architectural details that simply cannot be recreated. Every room tells a story, offering a glimpse into a bygone era while waiting for its next steward to lovingly blend yesterday's charm with today's comforts.The spacious living room is perfect for gathering with friends, while the front parlor, anchored by a fireplace, invites cozy evenings, holiday celebrations, or a quiet afternoon with your favorite book. At the heart of the home, the oversized country kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, plenty of workspace, and a welcoming eat-in area where memories are sure to be made.One of the home's most desirable features is the first-floor bedroom suite with direct access to the backyard-ideal for guests, one-level living, or a private retreat. A second full bath completes the first floor, while upstairs you'll find two additional bedrooms tucked beneath the home's charming eyebrow roofline.Outside, the nearly one-acre setting is a rare treasure within the village. The expansive front and rear lawns provide endless possibilities for gardens, entertaining, outdoor games, or simply enjoying the beauty of the seasons. Mature trees and open green space create a peaceful backdrop that feels worlds away while remaining close to everything.Leave the car behind and stroll to Valatie's restaurants, cafés, shops, library, community theater, and the picturesque village waterfall. Bike the nearby Empire State Rail Trail to the historic Village of Kinderhook, where art galleries, farmers markets, and additional dining await. Hudson and Amtrak are just 25 minutes away, with New York City approximately three hours by car.This is not a perfectly updated house-and that's part of its appeal. For those who appreciate authentic architecture, rich history, and the opportunity to thoughtfully restore and personalize a truly special home, this Eyebrow Colonial offers a rare chance to become the next chapter in a story that has been unfolding since 1857. Homes like this aren't simply purchased-they're cherished, preserved, and passed on for generations to come.
