Doric Detail Dutchess County, New York

Property Description

Originally built in the 1870s, this farmhouse has been added to over time to create a sociable family home. Inside, original details such as exposed wooden beams and large sash windows are complemented by vintage furniture and traditional furnishings, while a bar is ideal for evening cocktails. But you’re likely to spend most of your time outside, exploring the ten acres of land, enjoying a drink outside on the deck, taking some time to reflect at the koi pond, or gathering around the outdoor fireplace after the sun goes down. There’s also a natural pool fed by a mountain stream, which you can swim in, surrounded by frogs, water lilies and other aquatic life.

Home truths:
* The home is spread over numerous levels, so it is not wheelchair friendly
* The pool is natural, so while you can swim in it, you will share the mountain water with aquatic life
* Children should be supervised around the pool and pond
