Set on just over six acres along a quiet country road, 861 Snydertown Road is a charming Hudson Valley retreat where open meadows, mature plantings, and three picturesque ponds create a wonderfully private setting. At the heart of the property is a remodeled 1930s country cottage with three bedrooms and two baths. Warm pine floors, abundant natural light, and an easy, relaxed character define the home. The inviting kitchen features a deep cast-iron sink, gas range, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of country charm. Move-in ready, with updated mechanicals, the cottage offers an effortless escape to the Hudson Valley. Outside, the property truly comes to life. Lilacs surround the expansive lawn, while a broad wildflower field leads toward a fenced garden, ponds, and a collection of useful outbuildings. A separate workshop/studio offers a special space for artists, makers, gardeners, or anyone looking for room to create. A one-car garage occupies the lower level, while the second-story loft is filled with natural light from skylights and oversized windows overlooking the pond-an inspiring setting for a studio, workshop, or retreat. A second residence on the property offers additional flexibility and the opportunity for future improvement, whether envisioned as a guest house, multi-generational space, rental, or part of a larger country compound. Together with the acreage, multiple structures, ponds, and gardens, the property offers an uncommon combination of privacy, versatility, and potential-all anchored by a beautifully updated primary home. With usable open land, water, gardens, and room to further shape the property, 861 Snydertown Road could serve equally well as a full-time country home, weekend escape, income-producing property, or creative Hudson Valley retreat. Authentic, peaceful, and full of character, 861 Snydertown Road is a property that invites you to slow down, spread out, and imagine what comes next.
