Welcome to the original early-1800s John Jay Valkenburgh home, nestled in the historic hamlet of Chatham Center. This charming three-bedroom Colonial farmhouse beautifully blends historic character with thoughtful updates. Inside, you’ll find original wood beams, hardwood floors, and a spacious open living room anchored by a working fireplace. An adjoining dining room with a cast iron stove creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, while the updated kitchen features quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. A cozy den or office with adjoining half bath adds flexibility to the main level. Upstairs offers three comfortable bedrooms with generous closet and storage space. Outside, the property is surrounded by mature landscaping, perennial gardens, stone walkways, and expansive lawns that create an incredibly private and peaceful setting. A barn with workbench and potting shed adds charm and utility, while the side yard features a stunning 16x36 heated in-ground pool framed by lush plantings. The backyard offers raised garden beds, beautiful crabapple trees, and multiple areas to relax and entertain. Upgrades include a recently installed whole-house generator, smart water heater, and pool heater. Conveniently located just minutes from Chatham, Old Chatham Tennis Club, Kinderhook, nearby conservation areas and hiking trails, and within easy reach of Hudson, Albany, and the Berkshires, this special property offers the perfect balance of historic Hudson Valley charm and modern country living.
