Surrounded by endless views of open cornfields and tranquil farmland, yet just minutes to the heart of historic Valatie, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home sits on 2 bucolic acres in one of Columbia County's most picturesque settings. Whether you're looking for peaceful country living, a weekend retreat, or a full-time residence with space to breathe, this home offers it all—with style and thoughtful functionality throughout.

The interior features wide plank pine floors that gleam with natural warmth, flowing seamlessly across an open-concept layout designed for modern living. The spacious eat-in kitchen opens into a generous dining area anchored by a charming propane fireplace—perfect for cozy dinner parties or intimate evenings at home. Adjacent is the spacious living room with tons of natural light. The dedicated home office provides a quiet space for work or creative pursuits.

A proper mudroom connects the main home to the oversized 2-car garage—ideal for managing all four seasons of upstate living. Above the garage, a large additional great room offers endless possibilities: a guest suite, artist studio, playroom, or gym. The space includes a separate exterior entrance for added flexibility, privacy, or potential rental income.

Enjoy slow mornings on the front sitting porch, where the sunrise paints the sky and the peaceful rhythm of the countryside sets the tone for the day. Outside, a charming red barn stands ready to be reimagined as a studio, party barn, workshop, or entertaining space—it's a blank canvas for your vision. There's room to garden, room to grow, and plenty of space to roam, surrounded by nature's beauty.

All of this, just 5 minutes to Kinderhook's walkable village center, farm markets, and restaurants, and 25 minutes to either Hudson's vibrant arts and dining scene or downtown Albany. Conveniently located between NYC and Boston with a commute of approximately 2.75 hours in either direction.

This is the best of country living—modern comforts, timeless charm, and a setting that invites you to slow down and stay awhile.
