About this home
Set on just over 47 acres along Skunks Misery Road, this circa 1850 farmhouse truly encapsulates what is traditional and special about a country home. It has the proportions, character, and details that give an old house its sense of place, while the surrounding acreage provides a setting that feels increasingly hard to find. This house may seem untouched at first glance, but there is a warmth to it that tells a different story. It has been lived in, loved, and intentionally preserved over the years, retaining the character of its era while being carefully maintained and updated where it matters. Original wavy-glass windows, graceful archways, and other period details remain throughout.
The front entry opens onto a beautiful covered deck overlooking wildflowers and open raw land. At the back of the house, a mudroom entrance and half bath provide an easy place to come in and drop your things. The first floor includes a bedroom suite and full bath, while the kitchen wing is home to an antique kitchen with original cabinetry, a cast iron farmhouse sink, and period-style updated appliances. Just off the kitchen, a small courtyard with raised garden beds and herbs is ready for growing fresh vegetables and embracing the simple pleasures of country living. The living room is warm and comfortable, with a wood stove for cozy evenings. Upstairs, a beautiful landing is flooded with natural light and leads to additional bedrooms and a full retro-style bath. Intentional updates include re-finished wood floors, new storm windows, mineral wool blown-in insulation, upgraded electric, forced-air heating and air conditioning, a new roof, and owned solar panels; improvements that enhance the home without taking away from its character. The acreage includes open land and woods, with room for gardens, animals, recreation, or simply enjoying the quiet of the property.
Minutes from downtown Millerton, the Wassaic train station, and the entry point to the Berkshires and Upper Hudson Valley, this is a genuine piece of the countryside with the character, land, and sense of place that make properties like this one so special....
