Looking to live comfortably in a piece of local history? Welcome to 49 Old Kings Highway in Stone Ridge, a fully-restored 1700s center hall stone home on 125 bucolic open acres.

This stunning cut-stone colonial home boasts many original features, a grand addition, and the incomparable acreage. It has been completely upgraded since the current owners rescued it from ruin over a decade ago.

This stately home has been expertly remodeled, including restored wide-board floors and Venetian plaster walls, and all new systems: central air, heating, plumbing, electrical and septic, and new period-perfect windows throughout.

The large, south-facing living room with deep set windows has an oversized hearth, beamed ceiling and wood burning stove insert. Another large room in the “stone” house has been used as a bedroom and media room. There is a full bath off the generous center hall, which leads back to the amazing vaulted kitchen and post and beam great room featuring soaring vaulted ceilings, gourmet country kitchen with center island, custom cabinets, stainless appliances including wine cooler, 48-inch, double-oven, six burner Wolf stove with griddle, and soapstone counters.

Stereo speakers and ample storage are all surrounded by multiple French doors leading onto a wrap-around deck allowing the vistas of the pond, gardens, farmland, meadows, woodlands and sky to be welcomed in. There are even views of Mohonk Mountain House.

The entire parcel is in the Rondout Esopus Land Conservancy, thus insuring that this farm, located in the Rest Plaus Historic District, will retain its bucolic character. The 125 acres include two adjoining parcels of 101 and 24 acres respectively with endless possibilities. The pond, garden, mini-orchard and barn complete this private oasis.

This unique property is central to all things Hudson Valley—just 5 minutes to shopping services in Stone Ridge, a 5 minute walk to the Marbletown rail trail, 15 minutes to uptown Kingston, and 10 minutes to the NYC bus. Come visit 49 Old Kings Highway with its history and 125-acre vistas! This beautiful, historic house is waiting for you and a new chapter to unfold.
