Property Description

Welcome to Timberheart Barn, a distinctive converted barn set on 13+ secluded acres in the picturesque countryside of Old Chatham, NY. This property is rustic, grand, and modernist; crafted with a deep appreciation for wood as both a structural and aesthetic element. A long-time residence for a patron of the arts, Timberheart Barn honors fine craftsmanship and the inherent beauty of natural materials. Hand-hewn beams and a salvaged colonial-era mantel infuse the home with warmth and character, while the mezzanine loft, supported by a bed of small round logs, evokes a unique old-world feel. The focal point of this ~4,070-square-foot home is the grand cathedral room, an open living space with soaring 30-foot windows that flood the room with light and offer expansive views of the surrounding landscape. This space is ideal for gatherings, creative pursuits, or simply enjoying ample space with family. Just off the central room is a master bedroom with a large walk-in closet and an en-suite bath with a walk-in shower and soaking tub. The opposite side of the main floor flows into a French country-inspired kitchen, complete with a wood-burning fireplace, high-end appliances and radiant heated floors that keep things cozy and invite lingering meals and conversations. Upstairs, three lofted areas serve as flexible spaces, currently set up as an office, a sitting room, and a library. A second en suite bedroom offers privacy, and another soaking tub. Outside, the property invites exploration, with verdant gardens, a serene pond, an espalier pear tree, and walking trails that lead to a meditation circle. The shallow-pitched roof and stone accents evoke the charm of the region's agricultural heritage, while grassy open clearings create the perfect setting for outdoor gatherings or potential future development.Tucked away in Old Chatham, Timberheart Barn offers the best of both worlds: privacy and convenience. Minutes from the farm-to-table Old Chatham Country Store and Ooms Nature Preserve, it's also easily accessible to Hudson, Albany, the Berkshires, and cultural destinations like Tanglewood and the Clark Art Museum. Timberheart Barn isn't just a home; it's a unique living experience where nature, craftsmanship, and thoughtful design come together to create something truly exceptional.
