Property Description

Close to everything, but worlds away... Red Astrachan Farm is one of those rare properties that delivers something really special—17+ acres of complete privacy just minutes from the heart of Rhinebeck. The long private drive leads to rolling fields and wooded trails that feel like your own private retreat, while the town's celebrated restaurants, boutique shops, and charming Sunday Farmer's Market are just around the corner. It's the kind of location that seems almost impossible to find, where you can truly escape yet have easy access to everything the Hudson Valley has to offer. The home itself has a compelling history. What began as a 1900 farmhouse was thoughtfully updated and expanded in 2001, creating a layout that honors the original character while meeting modern needs. The main level flows beautifully around a central fireplace, with oversized sliders that open to blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living. Three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a dedicated home office are arranged with an intuitive sense of how people actually want to live. The finished lower level adds substantial flexibility with a large recreation space, room for a second office or fitness area, plus a generous walk-in pantry ideal for wine storage. What sets this property apart is the completely private guest suite on the home's opposite end, featuring a bedroom, full bath, comfortable sitting area, kitchenette, and independent entrance—currently operating as a successful Airbnb while offering flexibility for extended family or guests. The grounds tell their own story with a spacious climate-controlled workshop housed in the barn, an established greenhouse, a fenced vegetable garden, mature fruit trees, a vernal pond, small stream, and meandering trails through your own private woodland. The low maintenance landscape offers beauty without the upkeep, freeing up your time for what matters most. The real appeal here lies in the lifestyle it offers. This is a place where morning coffee can be enjoyed overlooking a pristine meadow, yet dinner at Rhinebeck's finest restaurants is just a short drive away. Where you can lose yourself in your very own forest, but still make the six o'clock showing at Upstate Films. Where you can grow your own vegetables but never be more than a few minutes from your favorite farm stand. This is a property for those seeking something more than just square footage—a home with genuine character that's rooted in natural beauty and connected to the local community. With ample space for future possibilities and the kind of tranquil setting that's increasingly hard to find, it offers a lifestyle that balances countryside peace with modern convenience.
