This extraordinary offering is made even more special and unique by its location, only 3 minutes from the four corners of the quaint, yet sophisticated village of Rhinebeck and with easy access to the Rhinecliff rail station. Just as though it was pulled from the pages of a treasured storybook, this stunning and pristine 57+- acre property is full of wonderful sights and sounds that awaken the senses. A harmony of lush greenery and verdant meadows, grass swaying with the breeze, sunlight flickering on the ponds, cattails and wild flowers along the water's edge, majestic rock outcroppings, and diverse wildlife with its chorus of sounds are abundant. Deer, turkeys, geese, turtles, songbirds and a Great Blue Heron all make their home here and bring the landscape to life. The main house, a three bedroom, two bath contemporary design, is perched on an elevation at the center of the property, enveloped by a canopy of manicured hardwoods, and looks out over fields and ponds. Special features include kitchen cabinetry by SieMatic, Miele appliances, solarium, two-story natural stone fireplace, metal roof and a generous Trex deck offering impressive views. Nearby, tucked into a pine grove, is a two bedroom, one bath guest house that also enjoys pastoral and water views. The first of two barns has a 60x47 6-car garage on the main level and a very large, one bedroom apartment and gym/office on the second level - all with 10ft ceilings. The second barn, measuring 90x32 and with two levels, offers expansive open spaces and a multitude of possible uses. Multiple structures are supported by a fully automated backup generator system. This spectacular estate is the ideal country retreat or year-round compound, with space to host family and friends, work-at-home, do some gentleman farming ... or just enjoy a personal oasis that is accessible to a rich variety of community, cultural and outdoor activities.,FOUNDATION:Masonry,Block,EQUIPMENT:Carbon Monoxide Detector,Smoke Detectors,ROOF:Metal,ExteriorFeatures:Landscaped,Outside Lighting,Cooling:Zoned,AMENITIES:Medical Facility,FLOORING:Wood,Ceramic Tile,AboveGrade:4550,Unfinished Square Feet:2040,OTHERROOMS:Foyer,Heating:Zoned,InteriorFeatures:Electric Dryer Connection,Electric Stove Connection,Walk-In Closets,Washer Connection,Sliding Glass Doors
