Pause to reflect on this Contemporary Pine Plains cottage situated next to a pond on 4.5 acres of wooded land.

Nestled in a green oasis surrounded by farmland, the property is separated from Stissing Mountain to the west by two ponds. But, you won’t have to go all the way there to get your fix of water views. Simply meander into the yard and feast your eyes on your own private pond…

…or, you can stay inside and catch those pond views from the cover of the cabin’s screened-in sun porch.

Since its construction back in 1946, the cottage has been improved and includes a new entry built in 2011 and solar panels installed to heat hot water. The 1,600-square-foot interior consists of a large living room with cathedral ceilings, stone fireplace, and two additional gathering rooms flooded with natural light, one of which opens onto both the back deck and the screened-in porch…

…as well as an updated kitchen with a spacious, eat-in dining area.

While the listing says this is a two-bedroom home, the loft area could be used as extra guest accommodations, or you can make it a home office…

…but, it might be tough to get any work done while bunking in the cottage, what with these beautiful Hudson Valley-based surroundings just waiting outside the door.

The property is less than 3 miles from Pine Plains hamlet in northeastern Dutchess County, NY. Stissing Mountain, Stissing Lake Park (perfect for swimming), and Thompson Pond, teeming with wildlife.
