Originally built circa 1920 as the carriage house for a prominent local estate, this distinctive residence sits on 2.4 acres in the quaint Village of Stamford, the "Queen of the Catskills" in the late 19th and 20th centuries. The Carriage House: a builder's tribute to the past, present, and future. Enter through the carriage house doors and find a residential conversion that uniquely embodies the nature of its former use while offering the comfort and aesthetic touches of modernity. Offered fully furnished, and turn-key as a primary, second home, or short term rental (formerly used as an STR). The great room boasts spacious 10-foot ceilings and a truly open concept. Kichen, dining room, and living room all have their own distinct areas with no walls between. Designed for housing the carriages of yesteryear and now perfect for the gatherings of the present. Black iron pipes add an industrial edge. Tongue-and-groove walls and rich hardwood floors carry the charm of the past, while a beautifully updated kitchen anchors everyday life with oak cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a stainless farmhouse sink, wet bar, under-counter refrigerator, and wine cooler. A four-season heated sunroom invites you to enjoy the surrounding landscape in any season and opens onto a pergola covered patio perfect for viewing the Milky Way. The lack of light pollution allows for breathtaking views of the galaxy. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, one and a half baths, and a second-floor laundry suite with sink. A separate three-car garage provides ample room for your own horseless carriages, etc. The land exudes serenity at the end of a quiet neighborhood road. The looping driveway recalls the nostalgic uses of the carriage barn while providing practical pull-through convenience for hosting large gatherings. The village of Stamford delivers small-town warmth with coffee shops (best espresso for miles!), grocery, and restaurants just minutes away. Easy access to the Catskill Scenic Trail for hiking and biking and a short drive to Ski Plattekill offers recreational opportunities. History, character, and financial opportunity — build your own remarkable past, present, and future here.
