Welcome to Highland Pond House, a warm and inviting country retreat set on over four pastoral acres in Valatie, NY. Surrounded by open meadows, a spring-fed pond, and postcard-worthy views of grazing cows, this light-filled contemporary farmhouse offers rustic charm and refined living in equal measure. The 2,800-square-foot interior features a thoughtful layout designed for relaxed, year-round living. A sunlit living room has oversized windows, and the custom chef's kitchen opens to a spacious dining area, perfect for quiet mornings or lively gatherings. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide ample space for family and guests, and a dedicated laundry room adds convenience. The primary suite includes a spa-like bath with a soaking tub that overlooks the idyllic landscape. A fully finished walkout lower level offers flexibility, with a full bathroom, and cozy family room ideal for movie nights or hosting visitors. Outdoors, the property is surrounded by mature trees and features an in-ground pool beside the still waters of the pond, all framed by wide-open skies and the gentle presence of cows grazing just beyond the fence. A large deck overlooking the pond is made for alfresco dinners and watching the seasons unfold, while a barn offers room for chickens or small livestock. Ideally located between the beloved Chatham Berry Farm and Tierra Farm, this home places you at the heart of Hudson Valley's agricultural soul. For those seeking peaceful surroundings and the rhythms of country life, Highland Pond House is where memories root and grow.
