Modern & Updated Ranch in New Paltz with In-ground Pool
Houses for Rent
This updated, stylish 3 bed/2 bath ranch home is located within minutes to the village of New Paltz and Thruway entrance (#18). Vaulted ceilings, a two-person shower, brand-new kitchen (counters, all appliances, cabinets, backsplash), hardwood floors on main floor and LVP flooring on ground level, heated in-ground pool, 16x24 screened-in porch summer oasis, backyard fire pit and over a half-acre of garden and grass make for a stunning country house close to all that the Hudson Valley has to offer.
The house sits in a quiet residential and walkable cul-de-sac neighborhood, facing southern exposure, with warm light streaming through the large windows. The many windows offer views of the flowering trees in spring and summer, and burning bushes in fall. The side pergola sitting area off the ground floor living room is another opportunity for entertaining, or just sitting and enjoying the chipmunks, rabbits or occasional deer that roam the property.
The house has a keyless entry, radiant heating and mini-splits for AC circulation in summer/ additional heat in winter. The lower level boasts a large family room with mini bar area for additional fun during game or movie nights. The ground floor bedroom has an on suite bath with standing shower. All bedrooms have ample closet space with customizable organization shelves. A laundry room on the ground floor has a washer and dryer and space for storage. There are three steps into the house from the driveway, for both accessing the side kitchen door off the porch, or the front door from the bluestone patio.
The main attraction for this house is the 14x28 in-ground heated pool, which is easily open from May-early October. The pool is fenced in, with beautiful butterfly bushes surrounding it for privacy, along with a terraced retaining wall that provides full blooms of endless summer roses during the season.
House comes fully furnished. Inquire about additional services, such as pool maintenance, garden and lawn maintenance and snow removal.
The rail trail is within 1 mile of the house, as is the Twin Star Orchards/Brooklyn Cider farm for live music, food and fun. Tennis courts, basketball courts and a playground are located within a 7 minute drive. The Walkway over the Hudson is less than 15 minutes away by car, and the Poughkeepsie Train Station is 16 minutes from the house. A diverse selection of cafes and restaurants are within a 5 minute drive to downtown New Paltz, and eight state parks for hiking, climbing and cycling are between a 15-30 minute drive.
The home is also available as a seasonal rental for individuals/families looking to spend two or more seasons in the Hudson Valley. Please inquire regarding this different price, if interested.
