Majestic Oasis in Rhinebeck w/ Hot Tub, Pool, Lake, & Fire Pit

Unique 1840's 6 bedroom farmhouse with rocking-chair porch, original wide floorboards, oak beams, comfortable bedrooms and a 1100' modern, octagonal, airy, chef's kitchen. The house sits atop a knoll overlooking 20 acres of rolling pasture, barns and swimming/fishing pond. An additional cottage for up to four can be rented additionally if needed. The barn residents are currently chickens, goats, and a friendly farm dog. They all enjoy visitors. And you can have fresh organic eggs for breakfast.

The house has an automatic backup generator, so that even power outages will not stop the fun. The grounds are carefully treated against ticks.

A perfect getaway for family and friends, the house features a fully equipped, 1,100 sq ft. octagonal gourmet kitchen, complete with professional 8-burner stove, double oven, and an extra steam oven. An espresso machine, Italian tiled floor (radiant heating) and dining table for twelve. If outdoor cooking is more your style a large stainless barbeque gas grill sits waiting for you out back, along with a giant trampoline, and granite ping pong table. A quiet yoga room and a peloton bike are available.

In the house, If you ever leave the kitchen, you will find a living room with cozy couches, perfect for conversation or watching one of the hundreds of channels offered by a second Spectrum TV. Separate library for quiet time, with built in bookshelves, pretty desk, easy chair and queen size sleeper sofa and a propane fireplace. There is a pool table and plenty of games and puzzles for all ages, and a digital piano.

All six bedrooms come with fresh linens and comforters. There is even a bedroom on the ground floor, with a bathroom, for those less excited about stairs.


The house is part of a unique farm, with an old Broadway summer stock theater no longer used professionally. Professional musicians can rent the space, or ask to practice the 9' Boesendorfer on the stage there. Mostly, though, this is a peaceful place for bird and wildlife watchers. Acres of manicured lawns lead you to private groupings of Adirondack chairs perfect for a morning coffee or watching the sunset. There are plenty of places to stroll – perhaps a walk around the pond to see how the kids are making out on their fishing expedition… a cocktail in the vegetable garden… a game of bocce on the back lawn… poolside picnic… or a relaxing evening in the private 4-person hot tub.

In the warmer months (JUNE, JULY, AUGUST) enjoy the fifty-foot fenced in in-ground swimming pool. The pool house is fully equipped with a bathroom, a refrigerator, and plenty of seating and toys for long days of relaxation.

There is a granite ping pong table open all year, and a huge netted trampoline in the fenced in back yard of the house. A pool table is located inside our home, as well. From Spring through Fall, there is a volleyball/badminton net set for a fun game or two

The ¾-acre pond is a great place to fish, swim, or paddle across in the 3-4-person rowboat. We provide fishing rods and tackle. Sitting beside the pond is a stone fire pit that is just waiting to roast all the marshmallows you crave. In the winter, if the season is cold enough, bring your ice skates and travel on the pond.
