158 Knapp-Carpenter Road

A sweet 1800's farmhouse restored to absolute perfection, nestled on a hill high above the road on 18-plus exceptionally private acres. Once home to a skilled woodworker, this three-bedroom residence features beautiful custom built-ins throughout and includes a separate, spacious workshop set at a discreet distance from the main house. A profound sense of quiet and calm pervades the grounds, which are characterized by light-dappled woods and dramatic rock outcroppings. Every inch of both the interior and the workshop has been thoughtfully restored, including the lovely hardwood floors. Cozy wood stoves were carefully retained in both buildings for efficient secondary heating and unmatched country ambiance. Best of all, the major mechanicals are completely turnkey, boasting a new roof, new boiler, new electrical panel, new septic system, and a new well pump. There is absolutely nothing left to do but sit on the expansive front porch and ponder your weekend! Conveniently located close to Ghent and Chatham villages, the property is also just 10 minutes from the Hawthorne Valley Waldorf School and the beloved Hawthorne Valley Farm Store.
