Skillfully maintained Arts & Crafts home in an historic family neighborhood of homes built ca. 1900.  Each room in this 1790 square foot home teems with character and architectural detail.  With mature trees, the 1.9 acres abuts fields, woods and wetlands, providing a sense of privacy.  Behind the home sits a legal income producing cottage, a private 800 sq. foot dwelling which was converted 8 years ago from the property's 2-story barn.    The home's interior is designed with aesthetic simplicity throughout its two floors, featuring large ceiling beams, thick plaster walls in perfect condition, and original hardwood floors throughout.  The stone and columned front porch invites you for morning coffee or outdoor dining.  The living room's original stone fireplace, mantel and hearth surrounds an efficient pellet stove capable of heating most of the home, supplementing the heat from the fully functional cast iron radiators.  Updated with new stainless steel appliances and travertine tile walls, the large, workable and light-filled kitchen is a place to cook and socialize, with a versatile peninsula to eat, read, or serve guests.  Greeting you at the back entrance is a mudroom/laundry room with stone tile floor, shiplap walls, bead board ceiling and crown molding.    Recent extensive pex upgrades to the oil furnace allow efficient, zoned heating, and a split A/C unit keeps the second floor den and bedrooms as cold as you like.  The basement provides nearly 1000 sq. feet of usable dry storage and workshop space.  Currently the washer and dryer are in the basement but can be moved to the first floor mudroom, as there are hookups and a drain already installed.  The home's water situation simplifies rural living:  it has its own well and water softener, but the Town provides sewer to protect the nearby wetlands.  This means you won't have to deal with a septic tank or leach field!   The home is hardwired for Ethernet for dependable internet access, and a wireless bridge extends service to the cottage if desired.    A large parking area accommodating 10 cars separates the home from the cottage, which can be used for a studio, office or rental.  This accessory dwelling has solid cherry hardwood floors and kitchen cabinets downstairs.  Upstairs is the original wideboard barn flooring, where there is a vaulted ceiling and huge clothes/storage closet.  The first floor includes living, dining, kitchen and bathroom, while the second floor is an open loft that can be used as a bedroom.  The cottage has its own electric meter and is also wired underground for its own cable service.    The home is conveniently located just outside the village of New Paltz for shopping and restaurants, with nearby access to the New York State Thruway for an easy commute to New York City, Poughkeepsie, Kingston or Albany.  The Empire Trail (rail trail) is walking distance for cycling or walking into the village, or to access adjacent trails that take you to Mohonk, Minnewaska and The Walkway over the Hudson.
