Dobrodošli na povijesnu farmu Surdeval, prostrano imanje od 4.500 četvornih stopa s pet spavaćih soba i četiri kupaonice na 24,5 hektara, smješteno između šarmantnih sela Chatham, Kinderhook i Valatie. Tijekom desetljeća, izvorna kuća iz ranih 1800-ih proširena je i preuređena, a sada je spremna za svoje sljedeće poglavlje. Službeni ulaz u kuću je iz grandioznog drvorednog kružnog prilaza kroz bočna vrata, u predsoblje koje se otvara u veliku dnevnu sobu s gredama (s dobrodošlim kaminom na drva), zaobilazeći rijetko korištena ulazna vrata i otkrivajući atraktivne klasične zakrivljene stepenice do drugog kata. S druge strane stepenica, na prvom katu, instalirane su spavaća soba ili radna soba i pridružena kupaonica, dok se na drugom katu nalaze tri tradicionalne spavaće sobe i dvije kupaonice. Kuhinja je ažurirana kako bi uključivala kuhinjske elemente od trešnjevog drva, a dodana je i svijetla blagovaonica. Prizemlje je znatno prošireno kako bi uključilo druge lijepe stepenice do spavaćih soba/kupaonica na gornjem katu i velika glavna spavaća soba s kaminom na drva, odvojenim garderobom i policama, luksuznom kadom tipa jacuzzi i francuskim vratima koja vode na kameni patio, pored zatvorene verande. Nekoliko koraka od glavne rezidencije, mala stara štala od drvenih greda potpuno je renovirana i postala je elegantni studio s visokim stropovima, policama i ormarićima od trešnje, kamenim radnim pločama i sudoperom, plus punom kupaonicom. U blizini se nalazi velika, spektakularna štala od drvenih greda na brežuljku prvotno korištena za skladištenje sijena i žita na gornjem katu, a u prizemlju su staje za konje i druge životinje. Skladište za kukuruz i sušionica su ostaci tih prošlih vremena. Lijepo uređen s vječnim autohtonim i atraktivnim cvijećem, drvećem crnog oraha i grmljem šaša, imanje obuhvaća stabla stara stotinu godina, travnate livade i privlačni zakrivljeni Gunite bazen. Smješteno na seoskoj cesti s ostalim farmama, ovo područje visoko je cijenjeno kao jedno od utočišta prosperitetnih obitelji iz New Yorka, posebno vikendom tijekom ljetnih mjeseci. Kuća je samo niz cestu od PS21 Centra za suvremeni nastup i Muzeja Chatham Shaker, 2,5 sata od New Yorka i Bostona, pola sata do Hudsona, Albanyja i lako dostupno mirnim Catskill i Berkshire planinama.

Welcome to historic Surdeval Farm, a spacious 4,500 square-foot, five-bedroom, four-bath homestead on 24.5 acres located between the charming villages of Chatham, Kinderhook, and Valatie. Over the decades the original early 1800’s core home was expanded and rearranged and it is now ready for its next chapter. The formal entrance to the home is from the grand tree-lined circular driveway to the side door, to a foyer, which opens to a large, beamed living room (with welcoming wood burning fireplace) bypassing the infrequently used front door and revealing an attractive classic curved stair to the second floor. On the other side of the stair, on the first floor, a bedroom or den and adjoining bathroom were installed, while on the second floor there are three traditional bedrooms and two bathrooms. The kitchen was updated to include cherrywood kitchen cabinets and adjacent light-filled dining room was added. The ground floor was extensively enlarged to include a second handsome stair to the upstairs bedrooms/baths and a large primary bedroom suite with wood burning fireplace, separate walk-in closet and shelves, luxurious Jacuzzi-type bathtub, and French doors to a stone patio, adjacent to a screened porch. A few steps away from the main residence, a small post and beam barn was completely renovated to become a stylish vaulted-ceiling studio with cherry shelving and cabinetry, stone counters and sink, plus full bathroom. Nearby is a huge, spectacular hillside post-and-beam barn originally used to store hay and grain on the upper floor and on the walk-out lower-level, stalls for horses and other animals. A corncrib and outhouse are remnants of these bygone times. Beautifully landscaped to include perennial native and showy flowers, dogwood and shad shrubs, the property encompasses hundred-year-old trees, grassy meadows, and an inviting curved Gunite pool. Set on a country road with other farms, this area is highly valued as one of the retreats for prosperous New York City families, especially on weekends during the summer months. The home is just down the road from the PS21 Center for Contemporary Performance and the Chatham Shaker Museum, 2.5 hours from New York City and Boston, half hour to Hudson, Albany, and an easy distance to the peaceful Catskill and Berkshire Mountains. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
