Imagine coming home to this perfectly enchanting, storybook cottage just up the road from Cold Spring Village! Set back amidst perennial cottage gardens, this Cape Cod charms on first sight, and as its extensive updates reveal themselves, your affection will only grow. This warmly refined home offers four flexible spaces with closets and a full bath on each floor, allowing for multiple bedroom, office, and living configurations. The kitchen features a modern seamless soapstone counter & stainless steel appliances, and the chic lower-level bath has been re-designed for greater accessibility. Improvements are too numerous to list, but include new electrical panel & generator hookup, buried electrical wiring and land regrading, comprehensive whole-house water purification system, new gutters w/leaf guards, and spray foam insulation in the basement. An amply-sized detached two-car garage provides space for studio, workshop, or storage, and is elegantly connected to the kitchen by a brand new flagstone path & completely re-built wood steps. Enjoy a beautiful day amidst the flowers in the unexpectedly private backyard, hop on the Metro-North (5 min away) for a city adventure, or venture out to enjoy the hiking trails, art museums, great restaurants and shops that are all close at hand. Move right in & there is nothing to do but enjoy the Hudson Valley lifestyle from this truly turn-key gem.
