About this home

Down a quiet country road is this 1860 Farmhouse with Studio building sits on 34.9 acres of mature woodland and open rolling lawns leading to a clear swim pond. The property feels deeply rooted in its setting--an authentic country homestead that has evolved thoughtfully over time. A three-building country compound features a farmhouse, a detached 2-car garage, and a purpose-built barn/studio, creating a rare live/work setting The residence retains the warmth, charm and authentic farmhouse character one hopes to find in a house of this era. Sunlight moves through the interiors throughout the day, highlighting the antique wide-plank floors, historic details, and rooms that feel both comfortable and lived-in. This 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath home strikes a rare balance between preservation and practicality creating a natural gathering place through every season. The home is suited to summer living, holiday dinners, quiet winter weekends, and evenings spent around the wood stove after a day outdoors. The spacious deck just off the kitchen provides a perfect vantage point for outdoor dining and relaxing with a view of the pond. The property's mature hardwoods and evergreens circle the landscape creating natural beauty and great privacy. A newer Studio Building lend both beauty and utility, of 1720 Square Feet offering numerous possibilities for creative use, it was designed for the hobbiest or for serious creative or commercial work. The building is outfitted with 200-amp electric service, a roll-up door allows easy access for large-scale work, equipment, or vehicles.

Access to an upstairs loft space could serve as an office or additional storage. The setting feels private and peaceful, yet remains convenient to the areas most beloved destinations for skiing, hiking, dining, and weekend exploration. 286 Manor Rock Road is the kind of property that has become increasingly difficult to find--an antique farmhouse with genuine character, meaningful acreage, and a sense of place that feels distinctly upstate. It is an ideal fit for buyers seeking the quiet and seclusion of the rural countryside with serious working apace in one private address. This is a strong candidate for remote executives, creative professionals, makers/artists or anyone balancing more than one life under one roofline. Private and serene, this property captivates on every level, offering a rare opportunity to own something truly special. Become the next steward of its rich history while shaping its future and creating a legacy of your own.
