Overview
Welcome to The Nuthatch and Owl’s Nest. This charm infused compound consists of a spacious contemporary-cape main house (4-5 BR 2 BA), a very private guest or rental cottage (1 BR 1 BA), a detached 2 car garage or workshop and a hidden glamping cabin (the moonshine shack). This is the perfect opportunity for those looking for a home to truly feel comfortable in. Luxuriate in the options: have space for loved ones under the same roof or in their own separate home (with separate meter and address). Located just over the Dutchess County border, experience the ease of access to the village of Red Hook and all its amenities while benefiting from the Town of Gallatin’s taxes and flexible short term rental rules.The Owl’s nest main house welcomes you with solid oak flooring throughout the 1st floor. Here you’ll also find two bedrooms and a full bath, ideal for first floor living options. The 2001 addition added abundant square footage for entertaining, dining, and relaxing. The heated sunroom is perfect for reading, exercise, an afternoon drink and has electric suitable for a hottub, an EV charger (or move the laundry to the main floor). Nature surrounds the house and is visible from all windows. The partially covered back deck overlooks the firepit, neighboring fields and the glittering Roeliff Jansen creek. Upstairs are 2-3 additional bedrooms (currently used as 2 but easily converted back to 3), a sitting room/library/office nook and the 2nd full bath. Soak to gorgeous views (or pick the shower if you prefer). Rejoice at the abundance of closets. The basement has additional finished space and tons of storage space (plus laundry). The separate and tucked away Nuthatch cottage underwent a major renovation in 2022 and is the perfect long or short term rental or a wonderful way to have loved ones near... but just far enough away :) Think: new roof, siding, foundation, flooring, windows... it’s READY (and adorable) not to mention: feels secluded despite the proximity. The detached 2 car garage (plus carport) can remain just that... or become your hobbyist dream space. Start your woodshop... make jewelry... or simply park your car and store your wood and know that ’potential’ is there for whatever is next. The moonshine shack is hidden away at the base of the property with gorgeous views. Camp, glamp or perhaps just store some tools until yer ready to ’brew’ your new idea. 1 min to the Elizaville diner and deli, 12 Mins to the village of Red Hook, 15 to Pine Plains, 6 mins to the Taconic, 12 to Tivoli (best ice cream) and Bard campus, 20 to Rhinebeck, 20 to Hudson for great dining and Amtrak. The property truly has it all and we can’t wait to show it to you!
