Built in 1937 and renovated between 2018 and 2022, this 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home spans 2,100 square feet, and has plenty of outdoor space. Included in the sale is an additional quarter-acre parcel of land near Shandelee Lake, which allows for lake access rights. Also included in the sale is most of the furniture and house contents, making this a true turnkey home.

The House Tour. From the newly renovated main entrance and through the vestibule, the living room is to the left, where original wood details have been wonderfully preserved or restored, including the cherry-and-maple parquet floors, original molding, and built-in bookcases framing the gas fireplace. Unwind on the sofa in front of a cozy fire. A bright sunroom connects to the main living room, which would make an ideal work-from-home space or yoga room.

To the right is the open dining and kitchen area, where modern touches complement original details. Seating at least eight, the dining room lets the wood floors shine, leading into the thoroughly modern kitchen, where brand new granite countertops and sage cabinets house high-end, stainless steel appliances. The original shiplap-style ceiling offers a nice contrast to the modern, clean subway tile flooring and backsplash. A large sunny window frames the oversize sink. With plenty of space to cook and host, it is a room designed for dinner parties.

The extended primary bedroom was added to the house in 2018, complete with its own entrance, deck, and full bathroom, for complete privacy—a nice touch for short-term renters. Wake in your king bed to plenty of light, thanks to the sliding glass doors. A wood paneled accent wall adds a natural element to the space, mirroring the lush forest views. There is plenty of room for a desk or a reading nook. A wide, six-paneled door steps through to the large en-suite bathroom.

At the top of the hardwood staircase are the three upstairs bedrooms. Two are outfitted with queen beds, and one with twin bunk beds. Original built-in bookcases and corner cabinets add historic charm to the rooms, and linen shades line the windows. A fully-renovated full bath, complete with linen closet, rounds out the top floor. A finished walkout basement with separate root cellar supplements the square footage of this home.

The Grounds. Shandelee Brook House has undergone several thoughtful upgrades in the last few years. The part-clapboard, part-board-and-batten siding and trim have been washed, repaired, and painted. The decks have been recently stained. To prevent snow buildup and ice dams, heating cables have been installed along both roofs. The stone chimney, an original detail, is a statement.

The two outdoor decks and a natural cleft stone patio make for easy enjoyment of the grounds. Enjoy your morning coffee from your private bedroom deck, and dine al fresco in the evening on the larger deck off the den. The beautiful patio is ideal for gathering, and a few steps away is a fire pit for all-season bonfires, with nearby wood storage. White fencing creates privacy from the road. A garden shed adds storage for your outdoor needs.

Less than a mile away, the additional land parcel allows for access to Lake Shandelee, a private, quiet non-motorboat lake. Use this land to store your canoe or boating equipment.

The Area. The Livingston Manor zip code is a covetable one, and a lure for short-term renters. Shandelee Brook House is a 6 minute drive to Main Street, where there are plenty of restaurants, grocers, and shops—many of which are open seven days a week. Only 100 miles to NYC.
