Home Details for 1376 Salt Point Turnpike

Built in 1845 and thoughtfully restored for modern living, Heron Pond Farm offers a rare balance of architectural heritage, meaningful acreage, and refined country living. Set on six pastoral acres in the hamlet of Pleasant Valley, the property reflects generations of stewardship — land carefully tended and the residence recently refreshed with tasteful intention. Inside the 3,266-square-foot farmhouse, sunlight fills rooms defined by wide-plank floors, high ceilings, and graceful period details. The front French doors open into a welcoming entry with a grand staircase and chandelier, showcasing the home’s historic elegance. The kitchen blends warmth and craftsmanship with granite countertops, a hand-painted Italian farmhouse sink, and views across the surrounding fields. A woodstove warms the living area, and the first-floor primary suite with en suite bath offers comfort and ease. A door just off the kitchen opens to a secluded stone patio framed by natural landscaping — an inviting setting for entertaining or quiet mornings outdoors. The grounds unfold with open meadow, two fenced pastures, and a striking red multi-level barn with original beams and a soaring loft. Once part of a working horse farm, the property retains its agricultural integrity while offering exceptional versatility. The barn features stalls on the lower and middle levels, ample space for equipment and storage, and an expansive upper level ready for gatherings, studio use, or future reimagination. A creek-fed pond nestles into the meadow — teeming with trout in the warmer months and smooth enough for skating in winter. From the bridge, watch the water move below as heron glide through the reeds. Beyond the pond, a meandering creek separates pasture from forested ridge, creating depth, privacy, and beauty in every season. The land feels expansive, yet remarkably secluded. Located just 90 minutes from Manhattan and five minutes to the Taconic State Parkway, Heron Pond Farm provides easy access to the best of the Hudson Valley — including the vibrant Village of Rhinebeck, along with Millbrook, Red Hook, Pine Plains, and Pleasant Valley. A setting defined by privacy and pastoral beauty, yet seamlessly connected to the surrounding villages and cultural life of the region.
