About 6843 Route 55
Serenity Hill is a hidden oasis. A long driveway winds through a broad meadow and then across a bridge over a rushing woodland stream. The homesite is elevated-a beautiful plateau that faces west towards the foothills of The Taconic Mountains. The classic farmhouse is set amid acres of rolling lawn. A rocking chair porch surrounds the house on three sides. The interior is designed as open plan and centered on a great room with a massive stone fireplace under a 20 foot cathedral ceiling. French door sliders lead out to a spacious deck and in-ground swimming pool. The first floor primary bedroom suite adjoins a private bath with soaking tub, separate shower and walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are on the second floor. A large full basement provides ample space for a playroom, gym and storage. The property includes over 1,000 feet of The Duell Hollow Brook. Less than a mile from the house is an entrance to The Appalachian Trail and it is four miles to the Metro North station. Pastoral and deeply private, Serenity Hill offers the peace and quiet of 21 acres surrounded by the awesome allure of nature.
