About This Property

Down a tree-lined driveway and perfectly nestled in the middle of 8 bucolic acres sits Maplewood, an impeccably restored circa 1840 farmhouse. The first approach to the house, along a circular driveway, truly takes your breath away. The landscape is quintessential Hudson Valley, with mature maple trees, specimen plantings, and a picturesque barn. A large stone patio overlooks a 40x20 pool protected by landscaping and offering complete privacy. Every window in the house provides idyllic country views making this property the ultimate getaway. A labor of love for the current owners, they have worked diligently with local artisans and raw material suppliers to bring this 3, 000+ sq ft grand manor to its original glory, leaving nothing untouched. Elements of period craftsmanship like inlaid hardwood floors, original windows and moldings, and copper gutters combine with recently added details such as the finest wallpapers from designers like Andrew Martin, Langelid Bromssen, Zoffany, and GP & J Baker, carefully selected unlacquered brass hardware, handmade Moroccan Zellige tiles, and high-quality appliances in the kitchen. The house's walls are adorned with art collected and curated over nearly four decades of travel and adventures. The furniture is exquisite yet inviting and comfortable. Up a few steps and through a wide verandah, the main door leads into a classical entry parlor. The living room on the right, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a wood-burning fireplace, is balanced on the left by a large family room with a wood stove. A carefully designed kitchen, the work of several talented craftsmen, leads out to the stone patio and the pool. An office, a mudroom, and a stylish half bath complete the ground floor. The light-filled second floor has five well-appointed bedrooms and three very chic bathrooms. Maplewood is conveniently located less than a mile from the Village of Red Hook, 10 minutes to Rhinebeck and Bard College, 15 minutes to Amtrak, and 20 minutes from Hudson and Kingston, providing access to some of the finest restaurants, galleries, and shops in the Hudson Valley. The home comes fully turnkey down to bed linens and towels. Weekly house cleaning, pool and lawn care, and all utilities are included. Pets may be allowed at the discretion of the owners. Maplewood is being offered as a five-month seasonal rental from May 15th to October 15th, 2023.
