Property Description

Welcome to Stony Creek--a distinctive country compound where history, nature & possibility come together on 5.5 picturesque acres in the quiet hamlet of Medusa. More than simply a home in the country, this special property combines an updated circa-1850 residence, spring-fed koi pond, 2 impressive barns, additional outbuilding, attached 2-car garage, expansive lawns, mature trees and landscaping, old stone walls & a separate adjoining building lot. The 3BR, 2.5BA home blends historic character with modern comfort, including 2 bedrooms with en-suite baths. Original glass doorknobs, hardware & skeleton keys remain, while vaulted ceilings & abundant windows fill the home with natural light. The spacious primary bedroom offers exceptional room, while the window-wrapped sunroom overlooks the grounds. The kitchen features granite counters, butler's pantry storage & an eat-in area, and a cozy den with antique woodstove & brick surround adds classic country warmth. Outside, stone walls wind through established grounds of open lawn, mature trees & woods. The spring-fed koi pond, swing, sitting areas, footbridge & paths create a peaceful setting to explore and enjoy. The substantial historic timber-frame barn features massive beams, soaring interior volume, loft & work areas, while an additional barn and smaller outbuildings offer remarkable versatility for hobbies, collections, equipment, workshop or creative pursuits. Also included is a separate adjoining building lot, offering additional flexibility and possibilities. Approx. 15 min to Greenville, 35 miles to Albany, 35 min to Amtrak & 2.5 hrs to Manhattan. Stony Creek isn't simply a house on 5.5 acres--it's an entire country property with space, character & possibilities to make it uniquely your own.
