Barn House: isolated sheep farm Hudson area

A century-old brick barn renovated in 2018, 10 miles from Hudson, close to Kinderhook, now a quiet, secluded, unique residence. Surrounded by gardens, sheep, and ponies, set off a country road, with a converted jungle shower, loft, and woodstove. Waterfall swimming area and Hudson-Albany Rail Trail for ideal biking. Easy drive to Columbia County and Berkshire treats. The farm shares space with nature as it is - country life.

The space: There is a queen bed upstairs in the loft (with a secure gate for kids) and queen size, new sofa bed downstairs plus a full-size day bed. The kitchen has a commercial stove. The butterfly piano from Denmark is restored and usually correctly tuned. Skylights and extra doors and climate controls added in 2018. The jungle shower changes over time and the photos here might not be up to date. More plants, humidifiers, etc. We're always working on it. We have a washer/dryer for small loads in the unit. AC and central heat in addition to ceiling fans and woodstove.

Another nice thing is how far back from the road the house; even small kids can just wander around. Other things I like here: gently rolling hills, little traffic, and the magnificent Hudson-Albany bike path.

We have an open layout with high cathedral-style ceilings. The loft and the main room can accommodate as many as 6 people but there would not be a lot of privacy for a larger group.

The house is completely surrounded by pasture. There may or may not be sheep or ponies outside. The animals have babies in the spring and that is lovely. We rotate them in and out of different fields during the year.

In the winter, we have as much firewood as you'd like. Please be extremely careful and talk to us about the fire in the house. Quite cozy, but, of course, potentially hazardous.

Also, this is an agricultural area. We have no control over when the neighbors show up to plant, harvest, or spread manure.

Guest access: The house is isolated and the entire place plus large yard outside eating area is exclusively for the guests.

Other things to note: Woodstove and farm animals require some discussion.
