The Carriage House is part of an historic estate. It was the first farm to bring fresh produce into New York City daily and while the formal estate property is now a national park, the adjoining farm property, and many of the original farm structures, are privately owned. 

Enter the property via a dramatic natural driveway, flanked by large rock escarpments, rising over 30 feet on either side. It is lined with old growth oaks, maples and hickory; and the rock ridges are coated with moss, ferns and verdurous native plants. The entrance is discreet and easily missed. At the end of a long approach, there is a Normandy style structure of prior-era craftsmanship. The exterior structure is entirely original, but the interior is re-imagined as a modern loft, with a new steel frame structure supporting the historic beams.

The renovation was completed in 2021. All of the mechanical, plumbing, heating, electrical and control systems are new. The South wall of the carriage house, rising nearly 36 ft. above the floor, is partitioned glass, conveying a large amount of light into the structure. Metal and glass French doors, manufactured in Europe, grace the entrance and the pool area. The structure has many windows on all sides, and the dining room offers an expansive view onto the landscape, with lush meadows divided by large rock ridges. The modern dining room addition expands the interior space, and the spacious main bedroom, guest rooms and modern ‘bunkroom’ will accommodate 8 guests. An invisible edge pool, with a minimalist glass fence, fold into the landscape. Any stay at includes full access to the 120 acres farm estate that adjoins the property. This includes: a kitchen garden, fruit orchard, meadows, old growth forest, hiking trails, a stream, pond , farm road and other features. There is also use of a tennis court and soccer field.

The village of Rhinebeck with its many shops, restaurants, and weekend farmer’s market, is about 10 minutes away.
