About 79 E Hook Cross Road
This beautiful log home is tucked away on 7 1/2 acres of manicured yard and wooded hillside. You'll feel like you're on top of the world with amazing views across the Hudson Valley, while living only 20 minutes from the Metro North train station. Whether you're looking for a year-round home or a weekend getaway or an Airbnb money maker, this property has so much to offer. You enter into a spacious living area with cathedral ceiling and woodburning stove that keeps the home warm and cozy. In addition to two bedrooms, there is an airy loft for extra sleeping space and skylights that fill the house with natural light. The unfinished basement makes it a true find and easy to expand. Recent updates include a 2025 hot water heater, and the refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave are all just two years young. The roof was newer when the current owner purchased. In addition to electric baseboard and the central woodstove, new mini-splits on each floor provide both heat and air conditioning. The surrounding landscape provides peaceful exterior living. Sit on your rocking chair on the front porch to sip your morning coffee or relax with a book outback on your secluded deck, taking in the beauty of Shenandoah Mountain. A seasonal stream flows through the side of the property and a fire pit overlooks the fenced back yard, perennial gardens, and patio. This is charming country living at its easiest
