Gorgeously restored 3,977 square foot colonial farmhouse on 5.1 private acres, and with a NEW above-ground pool (replaced October 2025), 5 bay carport, a 38x40 garage (with its own entrance from road -- can rent out for income), and so much more! . . . Located in the Warwick Valley School District (and just a half mile to the Warwick town line). Just minutes to all downtown Warwick has to offer, while the eclectic hamlet of Sugar Loaf is literally just around the corner . . . Enter house from classic country porch (which features tin roof), and note the attention to detail, the beautiful hardwood floors, and the rustic feel. Main floor includes living room with wood burning fireplace, formal dining room, recently updated powder room, walk-through kitchen with induction/convection range, warming, salad & freezer drawers and a separate pantry, and into a fantastic family room encased in windows.

Two outbuildings -- a shed off the pool area (which includes extra power for mig welders and other handyman tools), and a huge 38x40 garage one level down with its own driveway entrance off the road, which is complete with its own boiler (oil heat) & electric meter, 12 feet overhead door, water, loft space, and huge gravel driveway area for big trucks. Perfect for a home-based business, or rent it out! Incredibly efficient home, Peerless boiler, FULL house generator, Tesla solar, two new oil tanks (insulated). Property features 2 streams and a natural pond, plus a conservation easement behind it (so no building ever). Gorgeous & lush landscaping throughout the property. The current owners have taken meticulous care of this great property -- and it shows from the moment you pull in the driveway!
