About 11 Military Lane
Flawless craftsmanship and clean lines define this handsome and comfortable home, which is situated on a whimsical, fairytale property with beautiful stone-work, flowers everywhere, and a rambling backyard. Warmth and character radiate from reclaimed white oak floors, and vaulted ceilings soar overhead. The great room offers ample space for dining table and living room furniture to mingle, and features a wood-burning fireplace with glazed tile surround and wood mantle--reminiscent of nearby Mohonk Mountain House guest rooms and libraries. The kitchen, lined with windows looking out to the garden, has plenty of counter space for working and a huge butcher block island table for cozy meals with a view. Appliances include Wolf 6-burner stovetop and ovens, Bosch dishwasher. Off the kitchen is a side entrance leading out to the yard. The two bedrooms are on separate wings of the home, and each has an accompanying bathroom. Light-filled and restful, the primary bedroom overlooks the secluded bluestone patio surrounded by flowering plants, trees, and rose-adorned arbor. Off the primary bedroom hallway are closets and a full bathroom with slate floors and huge walk-in shower. The guest bedroom and bathroom are down a little hall, just off the great room. Carefully selected, beautiful natural materials are found throughout the home - wood panel doors, cherry cabinets, classic hardware with living finishes, period-appropriate light fixtures, high-end surfaces including soapstone kitchen counters. The property is a delight, with places to retreat under the tree canopy and flower gardens to wander through. There's a veggie garden with a sweet picket fence, garden shed, and blueberry patch. Open the front door to the large front porch--the ideal spot for rocking chairs and sunsets over the ridge. This home is perfectly located to take advantage of all the area has to offer - local farm stands right down the road with fresh eggs, veggies and fruits -- adventures on the ridge at Lake Minnewaska and the Mohonk Preserve -- colorful parachutes floating from the sky to the nearby skydiving ranch -- live music and good times at Gardiner Brewing Company or Whitecliff Winery -- tiny, idyllic Main Street in Gardiner -- kayaking the Wallkill -- all the joys of the country life are here. Monthly rent includes landscaping and lawn care, garbage service, & snow plowing.
