Property Description
Butternut Cottage is a beautifully restored 1800s home with rights to a spring-fed lake. Named for the 250-year-old butternut tree on the property, this antique gem has been fully rebuilt for modern living while preserving its wide-board floors, authentic doors and hardware, and hand-hewn beams. The welcoming entry and mudroom include a petite powder room with laundry and opens to a spacious, light-filled living room with room for a formal dining table. Large windows overlook the bucolic backyard and offer seasonal views of the renowned Roeliff Jansen Kill trout stream. An optional Jtul woodstove adds warmth on chilly days. The generous, ultra-modern kitchen blends seamlessly with the home's historic charm through tasteful finishes and a complementary color palette. A dining nook with a lovely window is ideal for birdwatching. The main-level primary bedroom features a stunning en-suite bath with a soaking tub, oversized tiled shower, spa-inspired finishes, eclectic details, and skylight. Upstairs are two comfortable bedrooms, including one with sliding doors to a private terrace-perfect for stargazing or sunbathing. A second full bath offers stylish fixtures and another skylight. Mechanical and structural upgrades include new heating and cooling systems, electrical panel, water heater, windows, roof, deck, driveway, privacy landscaping, septic fields, and deep-water well. The lovely backyard features mature shade trees, ample open space for gardening and play, and a border of forever-wild land. Prominently located in the Hamlet of Elizaville with just a quick stroll to Red Rooster for ice cream, Kiki's Deli, or the Elizaville Diner, a nostalgic 1950s Pullman-style diner and one of the last of its kind. Conveniently located off Route 2, the property is within a 10-minute drive of Taconic State Park, Red Hook, Rhinebeck, Pine Plains, and the many attractions that make the Hudson Valley an exceptional place to live or vacation. Excellent potential as a short- or long-term rental.
