C. 1760, The Vandermark House, is always admired by all who pass by. An area known for its rolling fields, serene vistas and sense of community, this home was originally built as a stone cottage with an eyebrow colonial section added in the early 1800’s. The interior is filled with sunlight and offers deep set windows, the original split front door, hardwood floors, built ins and good ceiling height, all adding to the gracious flow of the home. The country kitchen is cozy & has been updated with stainless steel appliances adjoining the spacious dining room, perfect for entertaining. You’ll feel the warmth of the fireplace in the L-shaped living room with space set aside to read, write or meditate. The bedrooms enjoy eyebrow windows with plenty of closets for storage. Be sure to check out the secret attic from the yellow bedroom where you step down into another great area for storage or maybe your own hideout. Set on 10 acres with a wonderful sense of privacy at the intersection of two quiet country roads, you’ll enjoy views of the lower meadow that with a little clearing could easily be converted to a large plentiful garden, your own area to play or maybe ride a horse! The wrap around screened porch with the original summer kitchen stone fireplace is ideal for relaxing any time of day. Partially finished, the basement is perfect for storage with cement floors and a full bath! The Vandermark House is truly a slice of Stone Ridge history and ready for its next chapter. Only minutes to Stone Ridge proper, U-pick farms, restaurants and markets, it’s a short drive to local destinations such as Woodstock, Kingston or Rosendale, I-87, the bus stop and just an hour to skiing!
