Welcome to 841 Howells Turnpike – Your Private Retreat in the Pine Bush School District Set on 1.3 park-like acres, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath contemporary colonial offers a blend of timeless charm, spacious living, and total privacy all nestled in the heart of the Hudson Valley and just 5 miles from the train station to NYC. As you arrive, a long paved driveway winds through a wooded approach, passing a level fire pit spot tucked into the trees, and leads you up to the home, which sits proudly on a hill. A welcoming walkway brings you to the extended covered front porch, stretching the full width of the house — perfect for your morning coffee or evening unwind.
Inside, the main level features a wrap-around layout with hardwood and tile flooring throughout. The formal living room is ideal as a home office, while the cozy family room with a wood burning fireplace invites you to relax in comfort. The expansive kitchen is the heart of the home, offering granite countertops, a large island, ample cabinetry, a sunny breakfast nook, and sliding doors that open out to the back deck and patio. Additional main-level features include a formal dining room, laundry room, powder room, and access to the oversized finished basement — boasting over 1,100 sq ft of additional recreation and storage space. Upstairs, you’ll find a generous primary bedroom suite with a walk-in closet and a spa-like ensuite bath complete with soaking tub and glass-enclosed shower. Two more bedrooms and another full bath complete the second floor. Outdoor living is where this property shines. The multi-level back deck and patio open to a lush, level backyard lined with mature trees, perennial landscaping, a vegetable garden, and even a children’s playset. Love nature? Head back toward the front of the property where a wooded path leads to a hidden firepit area — a perfect camping-style escape right at home.
Whether you’re entertaining in the open-concept kitchen, lounging by the fire, or exploring the private wooded trails, 841 Howells Turnpike is more than a home — it’s a lifestyle. Located just 90 minutes from NYC and surrounded by everything the Hudson Valley has to offer, this is the retreat you’ve been waiting for.
