Step into The Willow House, an artfully restored 1880s cottage nestled in the heart of Stanfordville. This 2,000+ sq. ft. home has been meticulously revived by a premier local builder known for preserving and elevating historic properties. Every detail was carefully considered in this restoration, with brand-new electrical, plumbing, insulation and sheathing, plus new windows, doors, Hardie siding, and a metal roof with copper gutters. A state of the art heating and cooling system was added.

Inside, original hardwood floors and vintage doors blend seamlessly with thoughtful updates. Arched doorways lead to a stunning kitchen featuring painted maple Craftsman-style cabinetry and honed Tartufo quartz countertops. After picking up fresh provisions from Big Rock Community Farms Market, gather friends and family for a meal in the warm, timeless dining space.

The charming mudroom, both stylish and functional, features terracotta flooring, a washer/dryer, and a full bath, perfect for freshening up after a morning walk at Buttercup Farm Audubon Sanctuary or an invigorating hike up Stissing Mountain.

On the first floor, a cozy bedroom with custom built-ins and a desk offers an ideal home office or guest room. Upstairs, three light-filled, well-proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully designed full bath complete the home’s inviting layout.

Set on a semi-private 1-acre lot, this property balances serenity and convenience. A custom 30x40 Amish barn with a concrete slab and metal roof is ready for transformation, whether as a guest studio, pool house, or creative workspace, with conduit already in place for future electricity needs.

Pick up a morning coffee at All That Java just across the road before heading to Bear Creek Farm to choose from over 100 varieties of dahlias. In the afternoon, take a short drive to Rhinebeck for a leisurely stroll and boutique shopping on Market Street. Explore local favorites like Rose Hill Farm, The Book Booth, Trevor Zoo, and The Movie House, just a few of the nearby gems we love. In under 15 minutes, savor a memorable dinner at the beloved Stissing House.

Less than two hours from Manhattan, The Willow House offers an idyllic weekend retreat, a fantastic rental opportunity, or the perfect full-time residence for those seeking charm, comfort, and convenience.
