But for finer seeds.'' - Russell Conwell, American Orator There are few homes as fine a seed as this one. Set on a quiet 6.9 acre parcel in the rolling hills of Chatham, this home was custom designed by the current owner and Knight Architectects of Blue Hill, ME. Designed along the principals of the ''not-so-tiny'' house, The Seedling is a pleasing custom designed home with room to grow. The land is a mix of lawn and hillside forest, with thoughtful landscaping and a flower garden. Hike to the top of the hill and catch a Berkshire view or simply sit on the teak screened porch and take in a spring breeze, while wild turkeys or fawns totter past. The home lives large, with the centerpiece being a lofted fantastic room, featuring a double helix stairca se to an oversized loft and a granite hearth. The soaring windows and sliding doors bring light streaming into the open plan living and dining rooms and there is ample room to entertain.
A fully equipped kitchen and powder room round out the living space. The primary suite features two sets of sliding doors for privacy and a large and light-filld bedroom with sliding glass doors to the yard. Downstairs, you'll find a huge finished basement, ripe to be set as a guest suite, entertainment room or a combination of uses. The basement is 502 square feet with dedicated laundry and storage rooms. The ''not so tiny house'' is designed with balance in mind. Small and mighty, this painstakingly considered layout can accommodate any group or activity, while keeping family and friends close. You can chat with guests while cooking or hear the crackle of the fireplace from the loft, currently set as an office space. The Seedling can punch above its weight while keeping maintenance costs and labor low. It's the perfect escape from City life or an ideal full time home for an individual or small family. Chatham is conveniently located 30 minutes from the conveniences of Albany and 35 minutes to Hudson's Amtrak station, but the charms of the small towns of the Hudson Valley and Berkshires make it all the more special. Enjoy concerts at Tanglewood in the summer or go antiquing or farmers market hopping in the hamlets of Chatham, Ghent and Kinderhook. The Taconic Parkway will deliver you to uptown Manhattan in over 2 hours.
