A cozy, light-filled cottage tucked away at the end of a quiet country cul-de-sac in Columbia County. Surrounded by trees, a meandering stream, and the gentle sounds of birds chirping in the woods - this adorable cottage is the kind of place you settle into and never want to leave. This home lives simply and beautifully, with natural sunlight pouring in through every window. The main floor is open and easy. On this level, you'll find two comfortable bedrooms and a full bathroom with laundry, offering practicality and flexibility for guests, family, or a home office. Upstairs, the entire second floor is devoted to a spacious sun-soaked primary suite, offering a sense of calm and privacy. With treetop views, ample space for a sitting area or workspace, and a bright, thoughtfully designed en suite bath, it’s an absolute retreat. The outdoor spaces are an extension of the home’s charm and ease. A screened-in porch feels like a second living room—ideal for morning coffee, a midday nap, or listening to the sounds of summer nights. Just beyond, an oasis! A completely private back deck made for lingering summer dinners and a custom bluestone patio that invites you to bask in its sun-dappled corners all day long. For a touch of upstate luxury - a cedar hot tub and outdoor shower turn the backyard into your own personal retreat all surrounded by lush greenery - it’s a bathing experience you didn’t know you needed. Whether you're looking for a full-time home or the quintessential weekend hideaway, this is the kind of spot that feels worlds away, yet it’s just a short drive to some of the best in the Hudson Valley. Just 5 mins to Academy Hill swimming hole and 15 to the towns of Tivoli, Red Hook, and Pine Plains - home to HV favs like Stissing House, the Tivoli Hotel, Branch Water Distillery, Fortunes Ice Cream, Kaatsbaan Cultural Center, Poet’s Walk, Bard College + the Fisher Center for the Performing Arts, and the infamous Montgomery Place Farm Stand. The cottage is under 25 mins to both Rhinebeck and Hudson and about 90 miles from NYC.
