***Note: showings to begin with this Saturday's open house, 9/27, from 1:30pm-3pm*** Peaceful, private and sun-filled - this stunning, custom contemporary truly affords you the best of both worlds. A Hudson Valley escape nestled in nature (with its own, resident Great Blue Heron to prove it), yet just minutes to historic Hudson with all its many excellent restaurants, cafes, shops and galleries. A long, gently curving gravel drive is nicely hidden between mature pine trees, and provides plenty of privacy off a quiet Kipp Rd. The modern ranch with its clean, standing seam metal roof is well-sited on 4+ acres with an enormous, full-width rear deck and convenient, drive-in, two-car garage. Noteworthy features include: vaulted, 20ft+ ceilings with exposed collar ties...chef's kitchen with stainless steel Bosch appliances, quartz countertops, soft-close cabinetry, and custom, open oak shelving...modern wood stove...high-efficiency radiant heat flooring...central AC...whole-house water filtration system...spacious primary bed suite with windows on three sides...large, windowed primary bath with separate glass shower and two-person soaking tub. Additionally, the home's finished basement provides an extra 512sf of living space, complete with media, fitness, laundry + 1/2 bath, and large storage rooms. Lastly, expansive front, rear and side yards provide plenty of space, should you wish to add a pool, tennis court, and/or any other accessory structures.
