Built by expert hands in 1850 then restored and expanded by hand in the 20th century by the master craftsman owner. Skilled in the nearly lost arts of 18th & 19th century building and finishing, the owner has created a one-of-a-kind property rarely seen on today's market. Hand-plastered walls, carefully restored original windows, new slate roofing, true laid brick Rumford fireplaces, and so much more all come together to make this house unique, comfortable and livable for the most discerning buyer. Set back from the road and high on a knoll, the house is approached through a delightful allee framing a gravel lane and then leading to an open lawn with magnificent Catalpa trees. The house and the grounds are an intentional statement of subtle sophistication with every design detail thoughtfully considered over the course of twenty-five years. Inside a large living and dining area with nearly floor-to-ceiling French doors gracefully lead into the open plan kitchen anchored by one the Rumford fireplaces. Thick marble countertops are set over beautiful custom built cabinets using Ash wood sourced directly from the property and built in the on-site wood shop by the owner. The library room sits to the side and is centered with a fireplace and windows on three walls and includes the powder room. Up the original curving staircase are three bedrooms and two full baths with marble floors and walk-in glass walled showers.The third floor is currently used as a fourth bedroom and could be an ideal private office space.Serenity pervades this house with large windows filling the rooms with natural light and framing the classic Hudson Valley views. A hot-rock sauna room is found downstairs in the full basement easy accessible from the library room. The two story barn is the active wood shop but suitable as a studio or garage space if need be. Walking trails meander through the property. The hamlet of Tivoli is centered between Hudson and Rhinebeck, near Fisher Performing Arts Center at Bard College and two hours from NYC.
