20 Indian Road

Tucked into 4.3 private acres in Kerhonkson, this modified A-Frame delivers the kind of quiet that reminds you what quiet actually sounds like. The setting is pure woodland, with nothing but birdsong and tree canopy in every direction. The owners operate their own design firm, and the results are evident throughout. Oversized picture windows flood the interiors with natural light and frame the surrounding forest from nearly every room, while crisp white walls play off warm natural materials to create a space that feels both considered and comfortable. The living area anchors around a dramatic fireplace wall, perfect for slow mornings with coffee before the day begins. The kitchen is sleek and well-appointed with a Bertazzoni range, equally suited to a casual weeknight dinner or a full spread for a houseful of guests. The layout gives everyone their own space. The primary suite sits at one end of the main floor, the guest bedroom at the other, and the sleeping loft floats above it all with soaring A-frame ceilings and a quiet perch all its own. Outside, the back deck is where summer takes shape. A lounge area and dining setup sit beneath string lights draped through the tree canopy, and a stone patio just off the deck adds a second spot to gather around a fire pit as the evening winds down. The privacy of the acreage makes the front porch just as inviting, giving you multiple outdoor areas to spread out and entertain across the seasons. The separate studio, just under 300 square feet with its own heating and cooling, is finished to the same standard as the main house, with warm wood walls and soaring ceilings. It functions as a proper home office, which means work has a place and that place has a door you can close at the end of the day. It could just as easily serve as a guest retreat or bunk room. An additional beautifully designed outbuilding that happens to function as storage rounds out the property, complete with an outdoor shower that's perfect for rinsing off after a morning in the garden or a swim at Vernooy Kill Falls, just ten minutes down the road. Mill & Main, Arrowood Brewery, Westwind Orchards, Inness, Kelder Farms, and local farm stands are all 10-15 minutes away. Manhattan is under two hours.
