Perfectly perched on a hill to take advantage of pastoral views and just outside the Village of Red Hook, this colonial in the country checks so many boxes. You'll watch the neighboring horse on its morning gallop in the meadow, stay cool under the shade trees while working and playing in the back yard and enjoy spectacular sunsets. A circular driveway and beautiful, mature garden invite your guests to take in the views along the brick paver walkway leading to the front door of this modern classic. Once inside, the double height ceilings in the foyer feel spacious and grand. The formal living room is to the right, the dining room is to the left, and the hallway straight ahead leads to the open concept family room and kitchen. Literally the heart of the home, this big, beautiful great room has a gas fireplace flanked by handsome built-ins and plenty of space for everyone to gather. The cook's kitchen has granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a big pantry for plenty of storage. Open the sliding glass doors when the weather is just right and spill out onto the refinished back deck in the fenced back yard, where you'll also find raised garden beds and a playset. Rounding out the first floor is a powder room and direct access from the garage, with plenty of cubbies for everyone to stay organized. Upstairs, the primary suite has a gas fireplace, beautiful views, a large closet with built-ins and spacious bathroom with double sinks and a grand shower. There's another full bath, two more bedrooms, and a large bonus room at the end of the hall. You'll find one more full bath and a wet bar in the lowest level - this space has so many possibilities. Home office, home gym, guest suite, oh my! The package is complete with central A/C, central vacuum, wired speakers throughout the first floor, wired security system and a location that makes life easy. Drive times: 5 min to Red Hook, 10 Min to Rhinebeck, 15 min to the Rhinecliff train station and under 2 hours to NYC.
