jill's room

We live in a 5 bedroom / 3 bath contemporary hilltop home on 6 private acres surrounded by deep woods and old stone walls. The property is landscaped with pollinator plants, ornamental grasses and flowering shrubs. Wildlife includes owls, chickadees, red bellied woodpeckers, wild turkeys, fox (& sometimes babies!) and deer, to name a few!

We are happy to share our house with full access to the kitchen, laundry room, family room, living room, dining room and small gym. Tesla charging is available for a small monthly fee. We have 2 cozy bedrooms available on the first floor of our home with a shared bath. One is furnished with a full bed, desk and armoire. The other is unfurnished with a walk-in closet, but could be furnished if desired.

Northern Dutchess county abounds with natural beauty! We are on the eastern side of the majestic Hudson River and are surrounded by bucolic views, historic estates, horse farms, wineries, orchards, quaint villages, farmer markets and small towns. There is hiking, kayaking, cycling, running, sailing, swimming and site seeing and plentiful wide, open spaces. We are happy to be your guide!
