A Secluded Zen Sanctuary located Minutes from Historic Millbrook Village in Dutchess County, $995,000

  |  April 18, 2017

Take a deep breath and get ready to take a Nestea-like plunge into this calming property in Dutchess County. Built in 1970, the Mid-Mod-bordering-on-Contemporary home is resplendent in walls of glass, soaking the 2790 square foot interior in natural light and granting views of its serene surroundings.

The home’s single-floor layout is open with living room/kitchen/dining room flow, hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and two fireplaces. Beyond the common areas, there are 3 beds/3 baths plus a master suite with its own balcony. As pretty as the inside of the house is, it owes all that beauty to the 11.38 acre property, which includes an in-ground pool + pool house, koi pond, perennial gardens, manicured lawns, and, of course, all the privacy your heart desires.

Located about 5 minutes from Millbrook village, a charming historic town with a population of 1043. Settled in the mid-1700s, Millbrook contains some historic sites, like the Nine Partners Meeting House (a peek into Millbrook’s Quaker heritage), as well as a bevy of 19th Century home styles including Victorians and Colonials. For a fun picture tour of Millbrook’s architectural history, check out this NewYorkSocialDiary.com post from 2015. Other areas of interest in Millbrook: Innisfree Gardens and Mary Flagler Cary Arboretum. Want the walking tour? Pop into Merritt Bookstore and grab a map.
