A nature lover’s paradise on 3.8 private acres, just minutes from the Village of Cold Spring. Set on a quiet mountain road bordering Fahnestock State Park, this character-filled contemporary home offers serenity, seclusion, and direct access to one of the Hudson Valley’s most treasured outdoor playgrounds — over 14,000 acres and 50 miles of hiking trails right at your doorstep. Inside, the home blends warm architectural detailing with modern updates, including stunning crown moulding, custom wainscoting, stone feature walls, and rich wood flooring that together create a refined yet inviting atmosphere. The main level features a welcoming living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a dining room framed by stone accents, a half bath, and a spacious kitchen with a slider leading to a large deck overlooking the pool and forested grounds.

Two sliders open to a covered porch and the inground pool, surrounded by lush landscaping, perennial blooms, and frequent hummingbird visitors.
