Smithfield, the picturesque locale of this residence, is embraced by rolling hills and bathed in sunlight throughout the day. Tucked away on 5 acres of unspoiled countryside, this inviting country cottage ensures both comfort and privacy. With mature trees on the North side providing a shield and a wrap-around deck accessed through sliding glass doors, the natural surroundings enhance the charm. The main living level boasts 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a captivating great room with a cathedral ceiling, and a striking brick fireplace. The lower level adds versatility with a spacious family room, ideal for a bed or home office, accompanied by a convenient bathroom with a shower. A one-car garage under the house and a standalone two-car garage present additional possibilities, whether for storage or conversion into a studio or workshop. Smithfield’s energy and atmosphere are invigorating, while its proximity to Millerton, Amenia, Pine Plains, the Harlem Valley Rail Trail, and the Metro North’s Wassaic Train Station adds convenience. The region, with its riding stables and shooting preserves nearby, captures the essence of country living. The tranquility and invigoration contribute to the allure of retreat.
