Family Selling 4 BR Cape After 56 Years!

Rare find! Property and house offered for sale for the first time since the family built it...56 years ago! This beautiful 4 bed/2 bath Cape offers plenty of room for a growing family, or to serve as a rejuvenating weekend retreat for the hard charger...with ample accommodations to kick back and thoroughly relax in the peacefulness...or maybe throw a BBQ out in your picturesque back lawn...where you can can share and enjoy fresh, locally sourced organic foods with your friends and weekend guests. What a way to wrap up an awe-inspiring day of exploring the beautiful Hudson River Valley...and all she has to offer! This meticulously built home is nestled on 4.9 park-like acres...surrounded by a healthy, mature forest, and will provide you with just the right amount of seclusion. Blend that with it's close proximity to the Taconic State Parkway, the amazing City of Hudson, Catskill, Athens, Tivoli and the Hudson Valley's world renown Bard College and voila!...you have the PERFECT balance of seclusion and convenience! Just imagine the peace and tranquility you will experience as you sit on the deck drinking your Saturday morning coffee...noticing the simpler things in life...such as just how fast the corn across the road has grown over the past week:)...or watching the squirrels, turkey and deer interact with each other on this wildlife rich property! Is there a better way to put last week behind you and to recharge your spirit for the week ahead? Probably not! Unlike many newer homes built over the past quarter of a century, this impeccably built home has stood the test of time. Why? How? Simple...because it was constructed with pride, old school craftsmanship, and quality materials...materials from back in the day when a 2 by 4 board was still a true 2" x 4"... Additionally, the family has followed a rigorous preventative maintenance plan over the years, and it shows. They have performed all of the necessary updates to the mechanicals such as the heating system, septic, well, and electrical service...which will provide you with great energy efficiencies and carefree living for many years to come. Fortunately, you won't need to take our word solely on this, because the owners have provided us with a hand written log that memorialized the majority of the updates, repairs, and maintenance. And in today's world, this is unusual to have because homes change hands more often than they did back in the day...and for the most part, it really isn't "necessary". However, when you can get this log from someone so closely tied to the legacy property, it becomes a great asset to have....
