335 Dawson Road, Hillsdale

Presiding over 27 acres of rolling hills and meadows with exquisite mountain views, Southview Farm is an ideal weekend retreat set amidst the glorious landscapes of Hillsdale farm country. Originally a 300 acre dairy farm, with a grand farmhouse occupying this location for over 100 years, the property has undergone a recent expansion and top to bottom reimagining of the space and grounds, and now offers all of the 21st century comforts of home.
The home faces due south, with clear views out over a one acre 14 ft. deep pond to the Catamount Ski area and beyond, and down the Taconic Ridge that runs between the Hudson Valley and the Berkshires. The landscape is so special that scenes from Ang Lee's ''Taking Woodstock'' were filmed here, as the views in front of the house closely resembled the site of the original Woodstock music festival. The headwaters of the Roeliff Jansen Kill, a major tributary to the Hudson River, define the property line to the east, tying this land directly to the rich history and scenic character of Columbia County and the Hudson Valley.

Southview boasts over 5000 square feet of living space and is currently comprised of four bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms. Among the second floor bedrooms there are also a den, office and laundry room. The third floor opens to a vast space with soaring cathedral ceilings, currently used as a gym and sitting area, which could easily provide an additional two bedrooms with baths en-suite if desired. The ground floor of the home is built around the original center stair hall and is anchored by the heart of the house- an enormous chef's kitchen with an 18 foot L-shaped island, soapstone countertops, double sinks, both a Wolf dual fuel 48'' range and under counter Convection Micro, plus a 42'' Subzero refrigerator. The kitchen also incorporates one of the two relocated wood burning fireplaces, preserving and reusing the original bricks of the historic farmhouse. Two wonderful rooms shoulder the kitchen- a sunny and well-appointed butler's pantry/mudroom with an opening over the sink to peer into an inviting sunroom beyond. This lovely corner space is wrapped in oversized windows to take in the views, and features a wood burning stove for cozy winter days and nights. Across the center hall from the kitchen is the ample living room centered on the second wood burning fireplace, with mountain views at the front of the house and views of the wildflower meadow and pool area at the back. The living room leads to a master bedroom wing with a handsome bath en-suite and well-appointed walk in closet.
Throughout the entirety of the home, there are beautiful hard wood floors with radiant heat, central cooling and glorious views from every room. All of the systems are new, including a 400Amp electrical service with standby Generac generator, all new plumbing and well, with whole house filter and water softener and whole-house ERV Fresh Air and Dehumidifier system installed. Two well-constructed porches were restored to the home and run the length of both the front and rear of the house for gathering with friends or just relaxing and taking in the views.
