Just turn the key and enjoy this exceptionally well-cared-for home, one that has not only been maintained but thoughtfully improved by the same owner for nearly two decades. Every project has been handled with attention and care, creating the kind of property buyers hope to find, where the essentials are already in place and the pride of ownership is evident at every turn. Set on 1.29 acres at the end of a quiet town-maintained road, the setting strikes a rare balance of privacy and convenience and can be your perfect introduction to upstate country living. Updates have been extensive and well executed, including a newer kitchen and baths, replacement windows, new roof, oversized 5'' gutters, plus upgraded flooring, lighting, and fixtures. The finished lower level offers additional living space with a full bath, laundry room, and a large wood stove, well suited for guests, a recreation area, or a home office. Thoughtful touches continue throughout, from solid wood kitchen counters and stainless appliances to a custom staircase railing, and improved attic insulation. The main level bath is cleverly designed with dual access, serving both the hallway bedrooms and the primary suite to function as two separate baths. Outdoors, the property unfolds as a gardener's retreat, with numerous seasonal blooms, landscaped seating areas, and space for a true backyard lifestyle. Enjoy the hot tub area, outdoor shower, and a large two-car garage that add both character and practicality. This is a private oasis that works well for full time living or a weekend getaway. Gathering friends and family feels effortless. Located in the historic hamlet of Stone Ridge in the Rondout Valley School District, the home is only minutes from local shops and conveniences, and an easy drive to Woodstock, Uptown Kingston, High Falls, Accord, Rosendale, and New Paltz. With nearby rail trails, town parks, community events, and outdoor landmarks such as Mohonk Preserve and Minnewaska State Park, the lifestyle here is as complete as the property itself. Move-in ready, beautifully cared for, and rarely available in this combination, this is a home you won't want to miss. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
