A New, Modern Hideaway in Rhinebeck

  |  September 17, 2025

Think of Rhinebeck, and a deep sense of history comes to mind. But once in awhile, a property comes along that turns that way of thinking on its head.

Modern from its clean-lined tongue-and-groove cedar siding to its crisp interior, today’s Upstater find could never be mistaken for a c.1800s home. But boy, is it a handsome place. The metal roof is a beautiful and low-maintenance asset, too.

The living room’s 28-foot ceiling has a rustic beam punching the walls just below its peak. Concrete flooring has radiant heating within.

At the opposite end of the house, the kitchen and dining room complete the great room with a wall of cabinets and two hallways: One is a stairway to the lower level, and another leads to the bedrooms.

A stainless-steel fridge sits within the built-in cabinetry, next to a wall oven and microwave. Black granite tops a white-oak center island and a bank of white lower cabinets.

The first bedroom has a picture window with a woodsy view.

The second bedroom has a similar view.

This bathroom has a white-tiled shower and a dual-sink vanity.

A loft area off the living room is perfect for a playroom…

…and guest room, too.

The lower level has an open mudroom just off the stairway.

A wall of built-in closets offers much-needed storage.

A living room/media room has a walk-out door.

A third bedroom expands the sleeping space of the house, too.

A deep soaking tub highlights the lower-level bath, which also has a floating vanity.

A spacious rear deck provides space for relaxing and entertaining.

The 3,532-square-foot home sits on a three-acre lot, about a half-mile from Route 9 and all the shopping therein, and under three miles to the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome for old-fashioned entertainment. The house is listed for $1,689,000.
