Description
An 800ft tree-lined drive leads to a Civil War-era farmhouse--commanding yet welcoming. For five generations, The Grey Arrow has been a place of stewardship and memory. Today, it's been reborn: history preserved, comforts elevated, spirit transformed into a modern sanctuary.
Inside, Helderberg bluestone etched with arrowhead motifs grounds the foyer. Light-filled rooms unfold with wide plank pine floors and tall windows. Two Rumford fireplaces anchor the living spaces, inviting warmth and everyday living.
The kitchen is the heart. Original 1850s beams frame reclaimed wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and GE Cafe appliances. A gas stove with indoor grill, hands-free faucet, and instant hot sink at the coffee bar elevate daily rituals. Behind a secret door, the butler's pantry offers expansive, hidden utility.
The home unfolds in wings. The primary suite is a private retreat with a soaking tub, tiled shower, fog-free LED mirrors, and NuTone WiFi speakers. The guest wing, connected discreetly by another secret door, offers comfort and privacy. Every bathroom has been fully renovated.
Beyond the main house, a 500sqft guest studio with cathedral ceilings and a renovated bath offers endless possibility. Four hand-hewn barns (1850-1910) stand ready for reinvention: entertaining, creative studios, boutique farming, or preservation.
Outside, 113 acres of meadows, gardens, forest, and trails invite exploration. A spring-fed pond mirrors the sky. River stone hardscaping and heirloom gardens frame moments of stillness. Mornings begin on the bluestone patio; evenings stretch with firelight and stars.
Located in Delanson/Duanesburg, near Landis Arboretum and local markets, with Albany and Schenectady within 30 minutes and NYC just 3 hours away--privacy is complete, yet connection is close.
The Grey Arrow is more than a home. It's a legacy--heritage honored, life elevated, and the next chapter waiting to be written.
