Property Description

Spanning 10.3 acres of peaceful woodland on bucolic Plains Road in New Paltz, this property maintains a deep connection with the natural landscape of the Wallkill River Valley. The property unfolds through multiple settings - the front yard's welcoming circular driveway under mature pine and oak trees; western views highlighting sunsets over the ridge; the enclosed pool and gardens hidden behind a vine-covered gate; the open and level grassy lawn; dappled shade over a garden of ferns; mowed pathways and mossy trails through the woods; a flowing stream crossed by a footbridge; and acres of untouched nature rising above the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail. The main house, built in 1974 with an addition in 2001, is complemented by an accessory building and two-car garage. All three structures share a similar shape--the pitched, shingled roofs reminiscent of the Dutch colonial stone houses on historic Huguenot Street in the village of New Paltz. The main house is warm and inviting, offering an entryway and a sunny sitting room just inside the front door. Tall casement windows and a stone fireplace add romance in the adjacent dining room. The heart of the home is the custom kitchen with cherry cabinets, granite counters, six-burner range, two ovens, Italian ceramic tile, and a beautiful soapstone island that extends into the great room for gathering, cooking and connecting. Soaring ceilings and lots of natural light create a relaxing environment in the great room, with radiant heated ceramic tile floors underfoot and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. French doors open out to the bluestone patio and pool area, which includes dedicated areas for a kitchen garden, ornamental plantings, fire pit, the 14'x28' inground pool, and a charming low-walled sitting area tucked away near the garden gate. There is a convenient hallway off the living room with a half-bathroom and entry door from the patio. A bedroom with pool views and a full bathroom round out the first floor. Upstairs, the primary suite is a haven--walk-in closets, hardwood floors, ridge views, sky lights with retractable shades, and a sitting area. The serene ensuite bathroom with jetted soaking tub, features radiant heat underfoot, a tiled walk-in shower, custom wood vanity with vessel sink, linen closet, and skylight overhead. The second level also includes a hall bathroom with tub, an office with a french door opening to a balcony, and a third bedroom with peekaboo views of Mohonk's Sky Top tower. The full basement provides plenty of storage space, and a whole house generator offers peace of mind. The adjacent accessory building--currently used as a therapeutic massage center--has three levels: a finished basement with living area, kitchenette, and half bath; main level with full bath, reception area, and treatment rooms; and elevated loft area, currently used as a library/office. The 2-car garage includes a second floor storage area. Beyond the grassy lawn, the trails on property lead to a tributary of the Wallkill River--sometimes rushing, sometimes lazily meandering--and beyond that the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail, a bike/pedestrian trail which runs for miles in either direction and connects to the River to Ridge and Empire State Trail neworks. The property continues with approximately 3 acres located on the eastern side of the Rail Trail. Further recreational opportunities nearby include the kayak/canoe launch at Sojourner Truth Park, pickleball, basketball and tennis at Hasbrouck Park and SUNY New Paltz, and cross country skiing on the River to Ridge Trail. Nearby Water Street Market, Taliaferro Farms, and the colorful village of New Paltz are all close at hand for the essentials of local produce, cafes, restaurants and shops.
