62 E Meadowbrook Lane, Staatsburg, New York, 12580

Welcome to a place where wide-open spaces, big skies, spectacular sunsets and genuine privacy set the tone for everyday life. From the expansive rocking-chair front porch to the beautifully landscaped grounds and swimming pool overlooking dramatic rock outcroppings and rolling lawns, this is a property designed to be enjoyed in every season.

The landscape is as much a part of the experience as the house itself. Meadows filled with native perennials evolve throughout the seasons, attracting birds, bees and butterflies and bringing the property to life from spring through fall. Stroll along the wildflower path, wander through the gardens or simply settle onto one of the porches facing east, south and west and watch the landscape change throughout the day.

Wildlife is part of the rhythm here. Red-tailed hawks sail above the meadow, owls call after dusk, deer appear along the wood line, and turtles can often be spotted sunning themselves by the pond. It’s a landscape that feels wonderfully alive and connected to nature.

And then there are the sunsets. Three distinct vantage points make the most of the property’s western light: the pool set against open views, a hot tub perched at the property’s high point, and an outdoor shower positioned to catch the last light of the day. Whether swimming, soaking or simply watching the sky change color, evenings here have a beauty all their own.

The grounds continue with specimen trees and a picturesque pond. An established fenced garden and small orchard offer apple, pear, peach trees, while blueberries and producing grapevines add to the abundance. An idyllic bit of Hudson Valley farm life alongside the pleasures of a beautifully appointed country home.

Inside, the heart of the house is an impressive kitchen and dining space made for people who love to cook, gather and entertain, while a wood-burning fireplace anchors the space. A six-burner Wolf range, pantry, and counter seating for six make this a serious cook’s kitchen, with plenty of room left for a generous table where everyone can come together.

Just beyond the kitchen, the music room flows into a spacious living room with its own wood-burning fireplace, bar and access to two decks, creating an easy connection between indoors and out. A home office, two bedrooms and two full baths complete the main level.

Upstairs, the private primary suite includes its own deck and a beautiful bath. An additional room offers flexibility as another bedroom, sitting room, studio, fitness space or private retreat.

For all its seclusion, the property remains remarkably connected. Rhinebeck and Millbrook are within easy reach, as are Amtrak service to Manhattan and the Taconic State Parkway. Local favorites--including Golden Russet for coffee, food and everyday provisions--are just minutes away, along with the wineries, farm markets, restaurants, breweries, parks and trails that make this part of Dutchess County such a wonderful place to live.

Come for the privacy and beauty. Stay for the gardens and meadows, the wildlife, the pool, the sunsets and long evenings around the kitchen table. This is a property that captures what so many of us love about life in the Hudson Valley.
