403 Camby Road, Verbank, NY: $925K

Not only is this c.1790 Federal farmhouse a real find, it also offers elbow room galore…

For those who’ve been in search of a house with some acreage under it, this is going to be your week. Upstater will be featuring properties with lots of land, like this Dutchess County homestead on ten acres.

Oh, but that’s not all. You haven’t even seen the house yet…

Don’t worry; you needn’t feel cramped within, not with 3,760 square feet and five bedrooms. And, it still possesses all of its 18th-century charms while providing its inhabitants with the kind of creature comforts one would expect in 2018: Stainless steel kitchen appliances and fixtures, two-and-a-half updated baths, security system, and more.

Vintage details like molding, plank floors, doors, and trim keep this gracious home rooted to its past…

No rural property would be complete with an old red barn, and this one could use a loving restoration. The grounds also include a bluestone patio, babbling stream, clear-water pond, and an even larger pond site ready to be restored

There’s even an original Colonial-era ice house…

Situated squarely in agrarian eastern Dutchess, about a half-hour from the Hudson River town of Rhinebeck. If you hop onto the conveniently-located Taconic State Parkway, you’ll be in NYC just over 90 minutes depending on traffic.

Curious about the neighborhood? Here’s a peek…
