From the Agent: "Introducing The Rifton, a fully restored and masterfully renovated 1876 stone residence perched above the Wallkill River between Kingston and New Paltz, in the hamlet of Rifton, New York. Over the years, The Rifton has served as a church, a town hall, and the bâtiment canards for a local duck farm, and the current incarnation beautifully preserves this spirit of gathering and community throughout all the living, entertaining, and work spaces spanning over 6,000 square feet. Preserving original elements from each of the iterations, The Rifton has been artfully restored with incredible attention to detail and wabi-sabi modernism, resonating throughout the space in the perfectly imperfect details like exposed beams and bedrock ledges, original stone walls and pine floors, and antique doors layered in timeless patina."
Nestled on a forested lot, the property is a serene oasis set two hours north of New York City.
Exposed beams pop against the light hardwood floors and neutral walls on the main level.
Lofted above the great room is a vaulted atelier that features a spiral staircase and a material mix of stone, steel, and wood.
The bathroom in the primary suite features natural bedrock walls and large claw-foot soaking tub is.
A peek at the sprawling entertaining space on the second level. In addition to 30-foot-tall ceilings, there is also a Viking-inspired, custom stone-and-steel firepit.
