Iconic antique saltbox colonial on over 6 acres. Known as the Daniel D. Smith house, town records trace the property to 1870 but the original structure likely dates to the 1700s. Once operated as a summer camp, the property is simply beautiful. Open rolling land and a long driveway lead past a period barn and chicken coop to the homesite. The house interior has been updated with newer baths and a wonderful open kitchen centered on a large center island under a cathedral ceiling. Random-width heart pine floors, 12 over 8 pane windows, beamed ceilings and three fireplaces are hallmarks of the integrity which has been carefully preserved during the restoration. A gorgeous 20 x 40 foot pool is surrounded by a large two-level bluestone terrace with built-in garden planters. A woodland path leads to 9 acres of adjacent protected land. The one bedroom legal accessory apartment is ideal as a guest suite or a steady income stream. This perfect country retreat is conveniently located within 4 miles of Purdys hamlet and Metro North station and an approximate one hour drive from Manhattan.
