Description: This 1840 eyebrow is located just an hour and a half from midtown Manhattan on 35 rolling meadow and woodland acres in the horse country of Dutchess County.

The exterior has been well kept; the cedar shake roof is only 20 years old. But the interior needs a major restoration. It retains original floors and moldings but some of these have to be sanded and refinished. Windows are original, including the wavy-pane glass of the day.

There's a fairly new heating system but baths and kitchen will have to be updated and upgraded. Plaster walls need repair. There are four fireplaces, including a Rumford fireplace, according to the seller, which is a sophisticated tall and shallow design from the late 1790s that reflect much heat back into the room.
