Tuthill Road Farmhouse: Barryville, NY

About The Property

What do you get when you blend a hint of southern, Federal-style vernacular with a dash of chic contemporary farmhouse? Behold 300 Tuthill Rd. This is a recently built home with a timeless elegance that begins to reveal itself as one pulls up the curved driveway.

The scene is beautifully simple. Its calming white on white exterior to its private setting, the home seems to come from another era. The land slopes gently down to the in-ground and heated saline pool below.

Entering the home through the centered porch, a bluestone landing helps the transition from out to in, a great place to pull off the Wellies. The central stairway doubles as a division of the large spaces; the generously sized living room to the left, and over to the dining room and kitchen to the right. There is a coat closet immediately on the right, as is a convenient half bath and the laundry room.

The living area is nicely situated with a large brick fireplace as its focal point. The wide plank flooring adds to the sense of timelessness. At this point a first-time visitor is still wondering….is this house old or new?

Just past the living room is a lovely room surrounded by 5 windows on 3 sides, a sweet window seat there in the middle. This room is as versatile as a Swiss Army knife, at the ready for whatever function you need. Is it an overflow bedroom? Yes. Is it a den? Yes. An office? Why yes, it is.

Heading over to the food-related part of the home, one passes the double-door access to the enormous porch. The dining area is grand enough for a large, family style dining table. The kitchen has an equally airy feel and has a six-burner Bertazzoni gas range that would encourage any chef, even a reluctant one. The aged brass faucet is by deVOL and adds a touch of Shaker sophistication. Windows line the walls but the pièce de résistance of this kitchen is the other set of double doors, which lead out to the super-inviting screened-in dining area. Visions of summer dinner parties come to mind.

Circling back to head up the white, stairway-to-heaven stairs, the primary bedroom on the left is grand, both in size and detail. A king size bed is a great fit here, with ample room. The deep soaking tub was a decadent recent addition and also has a striking deVOL faucet. The gorgeous en suite balcony has built-in storage, open sky views and is such a lovely place for a morning coffee or pre-bed stargazing. The bathroom has a large walk-in shower.

Two bedrooms are on the other side of the landing. Both are nicely sized and share a bathroom with a tub. The wood floors have been painted white ensuring a bright a cheery demeanor.

Heading back down to exit those double doors to the porch….one can’t help but be awestruck. A deep and wide porch spans the entirety of the house. Actually, more as it extends past the end of the footprint - from the screened-in dining area all the way down to the round veranda.

Heading down for a dip in the pool, a swimmer descends bluestone stairs and enters through the gate. The fencing was recently added and it’s a fantastic way to keep the kiddies and family pets from roaming. There is a sweet fire pit and room for loads of pool furniture.

Located just five minutes to the Delaware River and the Barryville General, and ten minutes to Peck’s supermarket in Eldred. Get to the GWB in 1:45.
