Dizajn sredine stoljeća i kreativna upotreba prostora savršeno su izraženi u ovom besprijekorno održavanom ranchu s višim razinama, gdje arhitektonsko zanimanje i udoban život predstavljaju samo početak privlačnosti. Prava zvijezda ove nekretnine je hortikulturna umjetnost koja je pretvorila parcelu od tri četvrtine acre u cjelogodišnje istraživanje boje i oblika. Zapanjujuće profesionalno uređenje okoliša donosi uzastopne valove cvjetanja - plačiva trešnja najavljuje proljeće, magnolije i drvenaste vrste slijede jedna za drugom, japanska javor daje jesensku dramu, dok rododendroni učvršćuju kompoziciju vječnom strukturom. Cigleni putevi obilježavaju rute kroz ovu živu platnu, a šalica kave u sunčanoj sobi ili dvorištu daje osjećaj bijega u botaničke vrtove. To je mirno mjesto. U stvari, nekretnina se nalazi u blizini velikog dijela (139 hektara) zemljišta namijenjenog očuvanju.
Unutra, jedinstveni višerazinski raspored doma stvara prirodne zone za življenje, s prijelazima obilježenim s nekoliko stepenica gore ili dolje - dajući tlocrtu ugodne kutove i osjećaj privatnosti koji je rijedak za ranch. Drvene podne obloge i blistavi originalni drveni radovi govore o brizi koju je ovaj dom dobio. Prostor za život (s lijepim kaminom) spojen je s tri spavaće sobe putem nekoliko stepenica, dok kuhinja — efikasan dizajn s prolazom koji ozbiljni kuhari prepoznaju kao superioran za rad — ima stepenice koje vode dolje do obiteljske sobe, a zatim opet dolje do radionice i prostora za pohranu koji može primiti sve što ne trebate svaki dan i kreativne aktivnosti. Sunčana soba pored kuhinje proširuje fleksibilnost doma, nudeći osvijetljeni kvadratni prostor za objedovanje, rad ili jednostavno promatranje napretka vrta. Mnogi od sustava u domu su ažurirani u posljednjim godinama, a popis je dostupan na zahtjev.

Mid-century design and creative use of space are perfectly expressed in this impeccably maintained split-level ranch, where architectural interest and comfortable living are just the beginning of the appeal. The true star of this property is a horticultural artistry that has transformed the three-quarter-acre parcel into a year-round study in color and form. Stunning professional landscaping delivers successive waves of bloom—weeping cherry heralding spring, magnolias and dogwood following in close succession, Japanese maple providing autumn drama, while rhododendrons anchor the composition with evergreen structure. Brick pathways trace routes through this living canvas and a cup of coffee in the sunroom or backyard feels like an escape to the botanical gardens. It's a peaceful place. In fact, the property is adjacent to a large piece (139 acres) of conservancy land.
Inside, the home's distinctive multi-level layout creates natural zones for living, with transitions marked by a few steps up or down - lending the floor plan cozy corners and a feeling privacy that's rare for a ranch. Hardwood floors and gleaming original woodwork speak to the care this home has received. The living area (with a pretty fireplace) is connected to the three bedrooms by a few steps, while the kitchen—an efficient galley design that serious cooks recognize as superior for workflow—has steps down to a family room, then down again to workshop and storage space that accommodates both all the stuff you don't need every day and creative pursuits. A sunroom off the kitchen expands the home's flexibility, offering light-filled square footage for dining, working, or simply observing the garden's progression. Many of the home's systems have been updated in recent years, a list is available upon request.
Pleasant Valley occupies a particularly attractive position in the Hudson Valley, situated between the cultural draw of Rhinebeck to the north and Poughkeepsie's metropolitan amenities to the south.
