Silver 1780 Millbrook Classic

Fresh, up-to-date Georgian jewel set on 120 prime Millbrook acres. Master bedroom, two guest bedrooms, and two children's bedrooms. Big, open, light-filled kitchen (Bosch, Wolf, marble counters) opens onto lovely stone terrace with its own dining table and patio furniture, garden & saltwater pool. Large master bath with double-sink, big tub, walk-in shower. Dreamy screened-in porch with day bed; wood-paneled library; formal dining room; two living rooms; 5 fireplaces. Air conditioning on the second and third (i.e. bedroom) floors. Modern, light-filled gym with cathedral ceilings, windows on three sides, large French doors facing over rolling fields; Peloton bike, recumbent bike, treadmill, weights, heavy bag. The property, former estate of famous Audubon Society chief and WW1 aviator John H. Baker, is well known in Dutchess county for its walks, trees, and unique bird-life. There is a separate "cottage" on the property (in the same building as the gym, but with separate entrance on the far side of the building; location is "off-screen" on the left of the aerial photo in this listing), with a shared driveway. This may be occupied during your rental, or alternatively it could be made available as part of your rental -- feel free to inquire about availability. An artist's studio in the same building can also be made available. Prestigious Millbrook location places this gem within 90 minutes of the Upper East Side. 7 miles from delightful downtown Millbrook, with its restaurants and shops. 9 minute drive from Dover Plains rail stop (Metro North: Grand Central/ Harlem 125th St.)
