Stanford, NY 12581

If you crave a truly unique property, love history this property might be your ticket to ride. Built in 1889, the historic Train Station in the hamlet of Stanfordville is the only existing station remaining along the original former P&C line that ran alongside Wappinger Creek (known as one of the top 10 trout streams in NYS). Originally, the buildings consisted of the main passenger station, the coal shed and the freight shed each of which have been lovingly transformed into three warm and welcoming cottages that must be seen to be appreciated. The Coal House and Main Train Station (Depot) are the only buildings being rented. The original Depot features a well-thought-out cook's kitchen complete with soapstone counters, granite sink, and full six burner Capital brand gas range featuring a wok ring, rotisserie and convection oven. Owner's Suite includes a landing area reading nook. The only bedroom is huge and light filled and finished with a wall of closets with a hidden office nook tucked away at the far end. The massive full bathroom holds a walk-in shower, soaking tub, yards of counter space and storage and a truly impressive vaulted ceiling. The stunning tiles featured throughout the bath were handmade by the master potters who previously owned the property. The the single bedroom Creekside Cottage with its tall central tower is accessed via the small deck surrounding the koi pond. As you enter, one half flight of stairs takes you to the full bath in the second story tower, and the second set leads down to the kitchen, living, dining and one large bedroom all overlooking the beautiful stream. There you will also enjoy a beautiful deck with stairs leading to the creek where you might enjoy the fire pit or tubing the length of the property between the bridges. The additional structures on the property also has a traditional one car garage as well as a greenhouse.
