New Listing
In-Person: 10/11 12:00 PM - 2:00 PMA sun-filled home tucked into the rolling landscape of Carmel, where hardwood floors, leafy windows, and an easy floor plan make everyday life feel just a little more tranquil. Just 1.5 hours from NYC, 50 Horsepound Road is a quietly charming home with a picturesque relationship to its surroundings. Built in 1960 and set on just over half an acre, this well-maintained property has the scale and simplicity that make houses of this era so enduring: comfortable proportions, straightforward architecture, and a connection to the outdoors. Inside, the living room is generous and opens through a broad arched doorway to a bright dining area wrapped in windows and greenery. It is a particularly lovely spot in the house with breakfast in the morning sun, long dinners in the evening, and the changing seasons just beyond the glass. The ridgeline view can be enjoyed from the eat-in kitchen and living room, while a beautiful Japanese maple sits just outside the dining area. Hardwood floors span throughout the living room and three bedrooms, which offer flexibility for full-time living, weekends away, or the increasingly useful home office or studio room. The rooms flow comfortably to one another, each with its own closet and natural light through Andersen windows throughout. Outside, the property sits within the soft hills and mature landscape that make this pocket of Putnam County so appealing. Trees frame the house as the terrain rises and falls around it, while the reality of proximity to everyday shopping tempers the feeling of being in the country. The large back deck offers enough space for outdoor dining parties and relaxing evenings. The backyard is perfect for a pool or vegetable garden. Recent improvements include a new roof in 2018, a new 30-gallon water heater in 2021, a new well pump and gutter system in 2022, and a new oil tank in 2025. The house is being sold with a 550v portable generator.
