For the first time in more than eight decades, one of Stone Ridge's remarkable historic landholdings is being offered for sale. Encompassing approximately 219 acres across eight separate parcels, this exceptional property combines generations of history, extraordinary privacy, and significant opportunities for both estate ownership and future development.
At the heart of this expansive property stands an authentic antique stone and frame house built in 1815, with its original stone cottage from the late 1700's. Rich in architectural character and history, the home offers an exceptional opportunity for thoughtful restoration and modernization while preserving its distinctive Hudson Valley heritage.
Complementing the residence is a magnificent two-story post-and-beam barn featuring massive hand-hewn timbers, traditional craftsmanship, and expansive interior spaces. The barn offers a wonderful opportunity for agricultural, creative, or recreational uses, including a potential artist's studio or a grand entertainment space.
Beyond its historic significance, the property offers substantial land-use flexibility and investment potential. Its eight separate parcels, expansive open meadows, mature woodlands, and classic Ulster County stone walls create an extraordinary setting for a private country estate, multigenerational family compound, conservation retreat, or thoughtfully planned residential development.
Of particular interest, preliminary subdivision feasibility work has identified the potential for residential lots within a portion of the property's open acreage, subject to further engineering, municipal review, and required approvals. This preliminary work provides prospective purchasers with valuable insight into the property's possibilities and long-term potential.
While offering exceptional privacy and seclusion, the property is conveniently located just minutes from the historic hamlet of Stone Ridge, with easy access to Kingston, New Paltz, the acclaimed Inness Resort & Golf Course, farm-to-table dining, and the natural beauty of the Mohonk Preserve.
Approximately two hours north of New York City (90 miles from Metro NY), this remarkable property represents a rare opportunity to create a legacy Hudson Valley estate, preserve an important piece of regional history, or explore the future possibilities of one of the area's substantial private landholdings.
