400 New Salem Rd

Historic and modern architecture intertwine with nature and endless trails with sweeping views at this 375-acre private estate that feels like a peaceful retreat. Entering through the gates buffered by mature trees, views across the lake welcome you in before following the drive to the 1st residence on the property, a historic 1700 stone farmhouse. Sited overlooking the lake and with views of the ridgeline beyond the approx. 2200sqft home has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, a gourmet kitchen with an 8 burner Viking gas range, 5 fireplaces, and wide board pine flooring throughout. Nearby outside is a gunite pool, 340sqft 1 bed - 1 bath guest cottage, a small studio cabin, a restored barn currently used as a workshop and game/entertaining space, and a 3-bay garage. A short distance from the stone home nestled in a meadow surrounded by grasses and wildflowers is the 2nd residence, a 3000sqft modern build with a 2 car detached garage. The contemporary design features a common shared space in the middle of the first floor bordered by 4 bedrooms with sliding glass doors to access the exterior and 2 full baths. Stairs lead to the second floor, with vaulted ceilings and oversized windows anchoring the home on either end. The open floorplan design features distinctive dining, lounging, and living spaces that define the expansive space and create intimate areas. The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped with Gaggenau wall ovens, a countertop range, a dishwasher, and Thermador refrigeration / freezers. Floor-plans are available for both homes upon request. Also on the property setback away from the primary residences and buffered by forest and fenced-in paddocks is an equestrian facility with an impressive post and beam horse barn and a 75 x 150 indoor dressage and riding arena. This sanctuary, complete with many hiking trails to viewpoints of the Catskills and beautiful Hudson River Valley, is conveniently located 5 minutes from restaurants and shops along the Rondout, 10min from the Stockade District in Kingston, 20min from Rhinebeck/Amtrak trains, and 2 hours from NYC.
