Description
Step into The Bushnell House, a stately Victorian gem nestled on nearly an acre of lush, private land in the heart of Chatham Village. This four-bedroom, two-bath home effortlessly marries 19th-century charm with modern comfort, featuring original moldings, a grand fireplace mantel in the dining room, and a clawfoot bathtub that whispers of its timeless character. Sunlight pours through wide picture windows, illuminating original hardwood floors and crisp millwork, while the open-concept living and dining areas blend historic elegance with a minimalist aesthetic. The chef-ready kitchen boasts custom wood cabinetry, matte stone countertops, and a deep farmhouse sink, with a deck just steps away for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs, four serene bedrooms include a sunlit retreat with treetop views, and both bathrooms balance vintage charm with contemporary fixtures. A screened-in porch offers summer evenings wrapped in tranquility, while mature landscaping surrounds the property, including an enchanting enclosed planting bed area perfect for gardening or quiet contemplation. Practicality meets potential with a detached two-car garage (ideal for a studio or workshop) and a full basement with laundry and ample storage. Located in the sought-after Chatham School District, this home is just a short stroll from Main Street's vibrant offerings—Bimi's Cheese Shop, the historic Crandell Theatre, cafés, and the farmers' market—yet feels worlds away with its park-like setting. Whether you're sipping coffee on the porch, hosting gatherings under the dining room's sculptural pendant light, or unwinding by the fireplace, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Chatham's history with modern convenience. Welcome home to privacy, charm, and walkable village life in the Hudson Valley.Show Description
