388 Maple Drive, East Chatham

If you love to drive long gravel roads through maplewood forests dotted with antique farmhouses and barns, we have this offering located in the corner of Columbia County that serves mountaintop views across the Hudson Valley. The impressive drive into the property through the gate is uphill past three meadows ablaze in native wildflowers across three seasons and through its own maple stock. The residence is a J.L. Ramirez, Architect PC (NYC) designed and built 4 bedroom 2.5 bathroom 3200 square foot center hall colonial with an open downstairs floor plan, grand porches on both front and back with sunlit, expressive Pella windows highlighting the Catskills to Berkshires views surrounding this tippy top sited spot.

The estate, constructed in the year 2000, has 89 acres in total, with 20 acres mowed and lovingly maintained over 25 years to provide a lawn for lounging and entertaining. Afternoon breezes and birdwatching become the cocktail hour calling with a built in bar for service. The kitchen, with its bank of paned windows and buzzed by hummingbirds all day long, is adorned with heirloom custom cabinetry that is passed through the generations whether the countertop material de rigueur changes or not. A flock of turkeys wanders by and the yellow warbler works a tree branch while you stir bolognese for the evening supper and star gazing is absolutely magnificent from this spot. The house includes an office downstairs currently used as the media room, a mudroom with a floor of native stone off the kitchen, a wood burning fireplace and a barn. All of the bedrooms are off the center hall upstairs and all 4 enjoy good size proportions with the primary on the rear en suite.

Situated in the quaint hamlet of East Chatham, this residence enjoys proximity to Chatham village and the Old Chatham Country Store with its delightful, local fare menu, the Massachusetts attractions of Stockbridge including the talent featured at Tanglewood and the convenience of I-90 to Boston or Maine at hand.
