A wonderful private country compound only minutes from Rhinebeck village. Sited on 5 acres, a nature lovers paradise with a swimming pond, lovely perennial flower and rock gardens, mature flowering trees, meandering stone walls, a fire pit and the forest. The main home is on one level with 1120 square feet featuring amazing views from the back deck of the spring fed pond, a side covered sitting porch (240 sq feet) with views of gardens. The home has 2 bedrooms, office (3rd possible bedroom), 1. 5 baths (custom tile & soaking tub), a large living room (wood burning stove and vaulted ceiling) that is open to the kitchen (granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, wood cabinets) and a dining area. The living room is light filled, facing south with a wall of windows/sliding glass doors that lead to the 390 sq foot back deck. A perfect place for dining outside or watching wild life on the pond. The guest cottage is privately sited away from the main house, with its own patio and parking area. The guest house is charming with a 432 square foot open floor plan. There is a bedroom and sitting area, full kitchen, full bathroom, a wood stove and a patio. The patio has views of the gardens and the pond. Both houses have split duct AC/Heat units.
