Property Description

Follow the curved, stone-lined drive past whimsical log sculptures, and Turoe Farm reveals itself: a three-building compound anchored by a classic 1890s farmhouse, joined by a modern gathering barn (the Guest Lodge) and a historic dairy barn with a contemporary auto-barn extension. Set on 16+ acres with two ponds, the headwaters of Steele Brook, and sweeping hillside views, it's a property built for gathering. The name nods to the 2,000-year-old carved granite pillar at Turoe in County Galway, Ireland. THE FARMHOUSE: Beveled-glass doors open to a center hall with a wide oak staircase and a living room with refinished wood floors, built-in bookshelves, and a bluestone fireplace (2024) - or, if needed, a first-floor bedroom suite. The kitchen pairs white cabinetry with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, GE Profile range, Corian island, and radiant-heated stone floors, opening to a bluestone terrace. Upstairs: a primary suite, yellow, blue, and green bedrooms (the last overlooking the ponds and valley), a shared bath, and a finished third-floor attic studio with eight windows. THE BREEZEWAY connects a mudroom/yoga space, the courtyard kitchen garden, the Guest Lodge, and the antiques and auto barn. THE GUEST LODGE: A two-story workshop-and-entertaining building - ground-floor garage, laundry, oil-fired forced-hot-air heat - with an upstairs showpiece: eight pond-facing windows, double glass doors to a covered deck, a wet bar, a Ponderosa wood stove, and a chef's kitchen with a Z Line range and Whirlpool refrigerator/freezer. A pool table, TV area, and spiral stair to a loft round it out. THE ANTIQUES BARN & AUTO BARN: An 1890s dairy barn with original stanchions and concrete floor, updated beams, a former antique shop upstairs, and an auto barn with room for a substantial vehicle collection, pond-facing glass doors, and rough-in plumbing for a future bath. Framed by all three buildings: a lawn, a kidney-shaped pond, and a fire pit ringed with Adirondack chairs, with 16+ acres of hillside, brook, a second pond, and valley beyond. Minutes from Delhi, under half an hour to Oneonta, under 3 hours from the GWB.
