27 Center St, Rhinebeck, NY 12572

This circa 1860 Folk Victorian is one of the more prominent houses in the historic section of the Village of Rhinebeck. During its recent renovation, the home was updated for comfort with central air conditioning, new bathrooms, and renovated kitchen. The features defining its early heritage were carefully preserved, such as original moldings, 4 over 4 windows, wide board floors, and plaster walls. A center hall separates the two large living rooms (that open on to one another) and dining room. 7' windows provide copious amounts of light, and built-in pocket doors provide separation as needed. The dining room is spacious with a wood-burning fireplace, parquet flooring, and the ceiling, an unusual intricate design of natural finish bead board. A large Viking range dominates the sunny country kitchen with eating nook. The center hall stairway is the formal access to the second floor landing with four sunny bedrooms, two baths, laundry, and noteworthy curved plaster wall with curved door at the top of the stairway. Two-car garage plus wide driveway for several cars. The village (incl. the farmers market) is around the corner, Amtrak 5 min, Bard College/Fisher Center 15 min.
