Secluded Country Escape with Heated Pool, Trails & Forest Views | House in Stone Ridge

Escape to a place where time slows down and every part of your day feels intentional. Just 90 minutes outside the city, this private country retreat is tucked away at the very end of a quiet dead-end road—only six homes in total—where the noise fades, the sky opens up, and the rhythm of life becomes something softer, calmer, and more meaningful.
Set on an acre and framed by open fields, golden light, and a wooded backdrop, the home feels both expansive and deeply intimate. Behind the yard, a stretch of forest creates a natural wall of privacy, tall trees swaying gently, birds moving through the canopy, and that unmistakable quiet that only the woods can offer. It’s the kind of place where you step outside and immediately feel grounded.
Inside, the home is warm, layered, and full of character. Sunlight moves through each room throughout the day, creating a natural flow that invites you to settle in and stay awhile. With five bedrooms—four upstairs and one in the finished basement—there’s space for everyone to spread out comfortably. Three of the bedrooms include TVs for private downtime, while the basement bedroom doubles as a playful escape, complete with ping pong and an air hockey table—perfect for late-night laughter and relaxed competition.
The main living area is the emotional center of the home. Anchored by a wood stove and intentionally designed as a screen-free space, it becomes a place for connection—morning coffee with a book, long conversations that stretch into the evening, board games spread across the table, and the quiet joy of being fully present. Just beyond, the TV room offers a different kind of comfort, with a propane fireplace casting a soft glow—ideal for cozy movie nights when you’re ready to unwind.
Next to the TV room, a thoughtfully designed children’s playroom creates a beautiful balance for families. Enclosed with glass French doors, it allows kids to have their own space to play and explore, while still being fully visible—so you can relax nearby, knowing they’re safe and happy, without the noise carrying through the house.
One of the most loved spaces is the fully enclosed sunroom/mudroom. Completely protected from bugs, it offers a peaceful little sanctuary within the home. A small table for two sits by the windows—perfect for slow mornings with coffee as the light pours in, or quiet evenings with a drink as the sky begins to shift. It’s one of those spaces that feels like a secret you’ll want to keep to yourself.
Step outside, and the beauty of the property unfolds in every direction. The backyard opens into a wide, open expanse where the light is everything—soft and golden in the morning, rich and dramatic at sunset. The sunrises here are calm and gentle, while the sunsets are nothing short of stunning—stretching across the sky in layers of color that seem to linger just a little longer than expected.
The large heated pool becomes the heart of summer days—cool, refreshing, and surrounded by places to lounge, gather, and simply be. There are multiple outdoor seating areas, each offering a different way to enjoy the space. The side deck, with its patio table and umbrella, is perfect for long outdoor meals. Near the pool, another seating area invites you to relax with a drink in hand, soaking in the warmth of the day. Fire up the gas grill or the dedicated meat smoker and let meals become an experience—slow, shared, and memorable.
As night falls, the energy shifts. The bonfire crackles under a sky full of stars, the air cools just enough, and everything feels a little more magical. The gazebo—with electricity—adds yet another dimension to the outdoor space, whether you’re reading, playing music, or simply enjoying the quiet glow of the evening.
Across the street, a wide open field invites you to wander—perfect for morning walks, playing with the kids, or letting dogs run freely. Beyond that, an additional field stretches even further, complete with picnic tables, offering the perfect setting for long, unhurried afternoons. And just nearby, tree-lined walking and bike trails wind through the landscape, offering shaded paths that feel almost cinematic—dappled light through the leaves, the sound of tires or footsteps on the path, and that deep sense of calm that comes from being surrounded by nature.
Despite the feeling of total escape, you’re less than a mile from town—close enough to grab a morning bagel, pick up groceries, enjoy a yoga class, or browse local shops. And just 15–20 minutes away, Kingston offers a vibrant mix of arts, culture, restaurants, and shopping. Nearby destinations like Mohonk Mountain House and Minnewaska State Park Preserve bring you some of the most breathtaking hiking and views in the region, while local vineyards, breweries, and spots like Inness add a refined, relaxed charm to your stay. In the colder months, nearby ski resorts make this just as inviting in winter as it is in summer.
With plenty of parking, a generator for peace of mind, independently controlled AC and heat on each floor, and every practical comfort accounted for—from linens to laundry—this home is designed to feel effortless.
A quick note to set expectations: this is our family home, and we truly love it. It’s filled with warmth, and personality. This is not a hotel—there’s no room service, and you may find that some of the small conveniences you’re used to at home aren’t here. And that’s part of the charm. What you will find is a real home—inviting, comfortable, and meant to be enjoyed.
It’s the quiet morning light through the windows.
The laughter echoing from the basement during a game of ping pong.
The stillness of the woods behind you.
The glow of the fire at night.
The way time seems to stretch, just enough, for you to actually enjoy it.
This isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a place to slow down, reconnect, and fall in love with the moment you’re in.
