These are the houses that real estate listings are for—we all want to see inside this private 203-acre estate.
These are the houses that real estate listings are for—we all want to see inside this private 203-acre estate with its own equestrian facilities. The estate at 118 Finkle Road in Ancram was built in 2008, and the original structure is a 1754 Dutch barn which has been dismantled, rebuilt, then stripped down to its beams and turned into a gigantic great room with 34-foot ceilings. There’s a brick fireplace in there, plus giant French doors that walk out to incredible views.
Designed by Cynthia Filkoff, the main house is 6,340 square feet with five bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms. There are wide wood floors and some ancient plaster walls, plus what looks like old wood support beams preserved throughout. There are three fireplaces, plus geothermal heating and cooling. Outside there’s a two-car garage, a three-bedroom “caretaker’s house,” and a huge equestrian facility with a five-stall barn, a barn for equipment, six paddocks, and an outdoor riding ring. Part of the acreage is protected through the Dutcess Land Conservancy.
118 Finkle Road is listed for $12,000,000 by Paula Redmond at Corcoran Country Living – Mill.
