Originally built as the gatehouse to the Standish estate, this charming vernacular cottage dates to 1895 and is defined by its gabled roofline and storybook proportions. Set on a two acre parcel tucked among neighboring estates, the property is enveloped by old-growth trees, established gardens, and open meadow. Just minutes from the village of Millbrook, the home feels wonderfully private -- nestled into the landscape and clad in a striking combination of stacked cobblestone and cedar shake. The main living spaces are warm and inviting, centered around a sweet country kitchen with a farmhouse sink and quartz countertops. A dramatic stacked stone fireplace anchors the dining room. At the north end of the house is a Great Room with vaulted ceilings and French doors that open onto a private patio. You'll find a full bath on the first floor, and a spacious mudroom at the entry with laundry. Upstairs, two charming bedrooms are tucked beneath the dormered roofline, each filled with wonderfully scaled windows and soft natural light, alongside a full bath. Out back, the stuga makes for a fabulous studio space. Just 90 minutes north of NYC, Standish Gatehouse is an enchanting country property with fern-filled shade gardens beneath a canopy of mature trees, clusters of lilac, blooming perennials, and timeless charm in the heart of the Hudson Valley.
