The City Farmers Upstate
The City Farmers Upstate
Tucked away on a pretty country road sits The City Farmers Upstate, a spacious 5 bed, 3 bath farmhouse retreat in Taghkanic, NY, less than two hours from the city. Surrounded by 9 acres of verdant fields with a creek to wade in, this inviting home is filled with amenities to provide a serene getaway for a group looking to escape city living. Designed to meet the lifestyle needs of a family or groups of friends, there are plenty of areas both indoors and out for guests to interact with each other and for the children to roam. Spread out over two floors with most of the bedrooms upstairs, the interior is timeless, a balance of warm colors, brick and wood mixed with antique and contemporary decor. Fulfill your cooking dreams in a well-stocked kitchen that includes homemade maple syrup, jam and other goodies kindly provided by the owners. Dine al fresco on the porch or under the beautiful Catalpa tree, or in the dining room which boasts a fireplace, an idyllic backdrop for cozy winter meals at a long table. There are endless ways to enjoy and experience the property, from picking veggies from the garden for a home cooked meal, enjoying a soak in the hot tub, or relaxing in the sauna before getting a fire going in the outdoor fire pit. Stay put on the property, or embrace the surrounding area by car, foot or bike — the breathtaking roads of Columbia County will take you through quaint towns filled with culture, history, antique shops, farmer’s markets, u-pick orchards, and more.
