Looking for a low-maintenance country home on a manageable lot where you can truly live on one level? This 3 bed, 2 bath, 1496 sqft ranch in Spencertown is exactly that. The house sits back from the road in a park like setting on just 0.77 acres, with beautiful views out back overlooking the neighbor's pasture giving you the feeling of much more space without the maintenance concerns. Inside you'll enjoy the ease of single level living, hardwood floors, a large picture window framing beautiful pastoral views, a fireplace in the living room, and another fireplace in the primary suite. The galley kitchen sits right off the foyer and features tile floors, oak cabinets, plus the washer and dryer for convenience. The primary suite wing features newly refinished wide plank pine floors, the 2nd fireplace, an ensuite bath with a clawfoot soaking tub, and two decks. Wake up to the pastoral views and roll out of bed on to the deck to enjoy your morning coffee. Beyond the larger deck on the west side is a terraced garden with space for al fresco dining and a sweet hammock tucked into a shady corner, the perfect spot for an afternoon nap. On the opposite end of the house there are 2 additional bedrooms and a full bath with a tiled shower. The layout is great for families or guests. The attached 1 car garage is convenient during winter months and the unfinished basement has potential for a workshop space or home gym or just more storage space. Conveniently located on Route 203 with the Spencertown Academy Arts Center right down the road. Beebe Hill and Harvey Mountain State Forests are just to the east for those outdoor enthusiasts and the Berkshires just beyond that. The house is only 5 minutes from the Taconic State Parkway and 7 minutes to the Village of Chatham where you will find all your amenities, groceries, great restaurants, Crandell Theatre, and the future Shaker Museum. Manhattan and Boston are only a 2 hours and 20 minute drive away.
