Bucolic 10-Acre Estate in New Paltz

  |  September 23, 2026

Spanning 10.3 acres of peaceful woodland on bucolic Plains Road in New Paltz, this property maintains a deep connection with the natural landscape of the Wallkill River Valley.

The 3-bedroom main house, built in 1974 with an addition in 2001, is complemented by an accessory building and two-car garage. All three structures share a similar shape—the pitched, shingled roofs reminiscent of the Dutch colonial stone houses on historic Huguenot Street in the village of New Paltz.

The 3,755 sf of living space, and 6 bathrooms, provides plenty of comfort and privacy for the owner and guests.

French doors open out to the bluestone patio and pool area, which includes dedicated areas for a kitchen garden, ornamental plantings, fire pit, the 14’x28′ inground pool, and a charming low-walled sitting area tucked away near the garden gate.

Beyond the grassy lawn, the trails on property lead to a tributary of the Wallkill River—sometimes rushing, sometimes lazily meandering–and beyond that the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail, a bike/pedestrian trail which runs for miles in either direction and connects to the River to Ridge and Empire State Trail networks.

This property is being offered at $1,950,000.

About Church Street Realty Services

I was born and raised in the Village of New Paltz. After attending school in Ithaca, NY and spending some time in Denver, CO, I returned to the place that will always be "home" for me. My wife and I have spent the past 5 years renovating a 100- year-old LeFevre house on Church Street, where we're now raising our two children. I'm happy to be right back where I began, starting a family in this rich, dynamic community. I bring to 12 years of sales and marketing experience, most recently helping a start-up business reach 2 million in annual revenue. I'm able to draw on my knowledge of the area and market, as well as my business background, to provide a first-rate client experience to the buyers and sellers I have the fortune of working with. My interests outside of real estate are varied. You might find me digging through records at Rhino, perusing yard sales for antiques, or training for an upcoming triathlon—swimming in the mountain lakes, running along the rail trail, or cycling on our country roads.
