Nestled within the serene hamlet of Old Chatham, this exceptional country home offers 43 private acres with stream frontage and abundant wildlife. Thoughtfully renovated and impeccably maintained, the residence seamlessly blends timeless rural character with modern comfort. Recent enhancements include a beautifully redesigned kitchen and bath, upgraded sound attenuation for enhanced privacy, a standing seam metal roof, updated electrical wiring with a 200-amp panel, HVAC with central air conditioning, whole-house water treatment with reverse osmosis, and a new well pump. Designed for those seeking an escape immersed in nature, the property invites effortless, low-maintenance indoor-outdoor living. Spend quiet mornings on the porch overlooking the landscape, start a garden, blaze trails through the natural corridors, or unwind beside the soothing sounds of the stream that borders the property. A secluded natural pond tucked along the southern edge further enriches the home's sense of tranquility and discovery. Moments away lies the historic heart of Old Chatham, including the beloved Jackson's Old Chatham House, a landmark tavern cherished for generations. Surrounded by Columbia County's celebrated equestrian estates, historic farms, and scenic country roads, the property also enjoys convenient access to the cultural, culinary, and boutique destinations of Chatham, Hudson, and Ghent. As an extra perk, the bee hive colony with electric fencing (further away from the home), furnishings, kayaks, and more are available if the buyer desires.
