Ang klasikong Greek Revival/Eyebrow na bahay na ito, na itinayo noong 1850, ay matatagpuan sa isang makasaysayang tahimik na baryo. Handa nang lipatan, ito ay nasa magandang kondisyon, maingat na pinanatili, at maraming maiaalok na may maraming likas na liwanag at kaakit-akit na layout. Ang pasukan ay direktang humahantong sa sala sa kanan, kuwarto sa kaliwa, at diretso sa harap, ang orihinal na Greek Revival na hagdang-bato patungo sa ikalawang palapag. Ang mal spacious na sala ay may isang mantel na nasa panahon sa may cozy na woodstove insert at, sa likod, ang bagong renovated na maaraw na eating kitchen ay may mga bagong na-install na kagamitan, cabinets, at quartz countertops, na may sapat na espasyo para sa pagkain. Ang kuwarto sa ibaba ay humahantong sa isang kaaya-ayang espasyo ng opisina at sa isang kumpletong banyo. Ang opisina ay may pintuan din patungo sa kaakit-akit na (walang heating) garden tool shed na humahantong sa labas na patio at mga hardin. Sa itaas, mayroong dalawang kuwarto at isang banyo, kasama ang isang mahusay na studio o silid-laro ng mga bata sa natapos na attic wing. Ang halos isang ektaryang ari-arian ay may kasamang vintage na garahe (na may kaakit-akit na roofline at shingles), stone patio, pader na bato, mga mature na puno, at mga landas na napapalibutan ng magagandang perenyal na bulaklak at ferns. Ito ay nakatagilid sa mga kagubatan at isang monumental na batuhan sa katabing ari-arian. Matatagpuan sa maliit na makasaysayang baryo ng Ancram, sa mga pampang ng Roeliff Jansen Kill, kung saan, ayon sa Wikipedia, noong panahon ng American Revolution, ang "Livingston Forge," na pinapagana ng Roe Jan, ay gumawa ng "bala, cannonballs, at marahil ang pinakamahalaga, ang malaking kadena na ikinabit sa buong Ilog Hudson sa West Point bilang depensa laban sa mga barkong British na umaakyat sa ilog." Ngayon ang masiglang baryo ay tahanan ng Ancram Little Store (ngayon ay isang tindahan ng almusal, tanghalian, at catering), Simons General Store (ngayon ay isang studio ng artist), at Ancram Grange (ngayon ang Center for the Arts, isang kamangha-manghang venue para sa mga pagtatanghal). Ang bahay ay nasa gitnang lokasyon sa pagitan ng mga timog na Berkshire mountains sa Massachusetts, kanlurang Litchfield Hills sa Connecticut, at, sa New York State, hilagang Dutchess County at timog Columbia County. Ang New York City ay mga dalawang oras ang layo sa pamamagitan ng kotse o tren (Metro North via Wassaic o Amtrak via Hudson).

This quintessential classic Greek Revival/Eyebrow home, circa 1850, is located in a historic quiet country Hamlet. Ready to move in, it is in great condition, meticulously maintained, and has much to offer with lots of natural light and charming layout. Entrance hall leads to the living room on the right, bedroom to the left, and straight ahead, the original Greek Revival stair to the second floor. The spacious living room has a period mantle with a cozy woodstove insert and, at the rear, the newly renovated sunny eat-in kitchen has recently installed appliances, cabinets, and quartz countertops, with plenty of room for dining. The downstairs bedroom leads to a pleasant office space and to a full bath. The office also has a door to a delightful (unheated) garden tool shed which leads to the outside patio and gardens. Upstairs, are two bedrooms and a bathroom, plus a great studio or children’s playroom in the finished attic wing. The almost one acre of property includes a vintage garage (with attractive roofline and shingles), stone patio, stone walls, mature trees, and paths bordered by beautiful perennial flowers and ferns. It backs up to woodlands and a monumental rock ridge on the adjacent property. Situated in the tiny historic Hamlet of Ancram, on the banks of the Roeliff Jansen Kill, where, according to Wikipedia, during the American Revolution, the "Livingston Forge," powered by the Roe Jan, produced "shot, cannonballs, and perhaps most importantly, the huge chain that was installed across the Hudson River at West Point as a defense against British ships going upriver." Today the vibrant Hamlet is home to Ancram Little Store (now a breakfast, lunch, and catering store), Simons General Store (now an artist studio), and Ancram Grange (now the Center for the Arts, an amazing performance venue). The home is centrally located between southern Berkshire mountains in Massachusetts, western Litchfield Hills in Connecticut, and, in New York State, northern Dutchess County and southern Columbia County.
