The House of Seven Gables, a striking 19th-century stone house with a significant Gothic influence, is set on two rolling acres surrounded by hundreds of acres of forever conserved land owned by the Hudson Valley Farm Hub. Impeccably restored by the current owners, every inch of the 4,800-sf home was addressed to create a modern, sprawling living space in a country setting without compromising the home's original grandeur. The layout has a smooth, cohesive flow with exceptionally high ceilings, wide open hallways, and spacious rooms with plenty of natural light, all elements which are difficult to find in stone houses of that vintage. The ground floor of the main house has a living room and a dining room on either side of a classic wide center hall, a kitchen, a family room, a laundry room, and a half bath. The second level has four large bedrooms with two full baths. The family room on the ground floor leads to the oldest part of the house, built in 1840, which is now a mud room with stone and reclaimed wide pine flooring on the first floor and a spacious office on the second level with a separate staircase. Working with local artisans, the owners made sure to preserve as many original details as possible, including the wide pine floors, deep-set windows with elaborate trims, and all historic stonework. Every wall, inside and out, has been meticulously repointed. Modern updates include all new electrical, a new roof, plumbing, central air, and an efficient heating system. The kitchen was created in collaboration with design firm Abstract Quality, with Blue Roma Quartzite countertops, custom curved cabinetry, and top-quality appliances. Exterior buildings include a stone smokehouse and a barn, both ready to be repurposed. There are at least two perfect sites for a pool. A new gravel driveway and extensive landscaping were completed over the past season to create a more private outside space that will only improve as it matures. Among some of the region's most prestigious and beautiful historic stone houses and estates, The House of Seven Gables is just minutes from Stone Ridge, Accord, and Kingston. Nearby favorites include Inness, Hasbrouck House, Westwind Orchard, Mohonk Mountain House, and for a summer refresh, Cherries Ice Cream. The home is also easily accessible to Rhinebeck and the Rhinecliff Amtrak Station, only 15 minutes away, and is just around 90 minutes from New York City. The History: The House of Seven Gables has perhaps one of the most iconic and easily recognizable exteriors on a notable, several-mile-long stretch of historic estates. In 1840, the original part of the stone house, which had a modest, two-room layout, was completed for Wilhelmus Hasbrouck. Around 30 years later, the expansive Gothic Revival structure that lends the home its storied name was constructed and melded with the original home and clad in distinctive limestone for Cornelius Oliver, the great-grandson of Andrew Oliver, a surveyor from Ireland who settled in Marbletown in the early 1700s. After the Oliver family, only three families, including the current owners, have stewarded this historic house.
