The Perfect Weekend Escape or Full-Time Country Home, just 90 minutes from NYC. Set on a quiet, scenic road in the prestigious Quaker Hill area, you’re a short drive to the Village of Pawling with shopping, restaurants, highways, and Metro-North access. From the outside, it’s a classic farmhouse with rolling green acreage and space to breathe. Step inside, and you’re met with modern, yet cozy finishes. This unique 2-bedroom home lives like a 3-bedroom, with the first-floor bedroom easily functioning as a secondary bedroom — offering flexibility for guests, a home office, or multi-generational living. The sprawling acreage lends itself to hosting friends or family around the fire pit. Multiple indoor and outdoor spaces for gathering or relaxing. Easy access to trails, lakes, farms, and Metro-North. The Saturday morning Pawling Farmer's Market is just a 12 minute drive and offers 16 local vendors from June til September. Or try McKinney & Doyle Fine Foods Cafe, a local favorite for food & drink, fresh baked goods, and specialty provisions. Catch the Dutchess County Fair in Rhinebeck in August or the East Fishkill Summer Concert Series. Finally, the Appalachian Trail is one of Dutchess County's largest parks with 30+ miles of trails within a protective corridor of 4,000+ acres. The trail enters via Southern Dutchess County (north end of Fahnestock State Park) and parking is free in Pawling, off Rt 22, at Metro-North Appalachian Trail Train Station (a short 8-minute drive from the house). 36 Byrds Hill Rd is in the epicenter of Hudson Valley culture & nature. Here, you are well positioned for work and play, and the tranquility that comes with your secluded outdoor space.
