Two hours north of New York City, right near hip New Paltz and the Mohonk Preserve, $839,000 will get you a meticulously preserved and restored farmhouse built in 1730 (h/t CIRCA). Not only that, but it sits on 3.9 acres and comes complete with a lower-level guest suite (which has been serving the current owners with Airbnb rental income) and a detached guest cottage.

The current owners “sensitively restored and meticulously maintained” the home. Throughout, you’ll find exposed stone walls, wood-beamed ceilings, decorative fireplaces, and original wide-board floors.

The main house has an entry foyer, dining room, living room, den, eat-in kitchen (with room for two dining tables and an old wood-burning stove), a heated sunroom that opens to a covered porch, and three upstairs bedrooms. A staircase from the den leads to the former servant’s quarters that could be used as an additional bedroom or office.

A separate entrance leads to the super-cozy lower-level guest suite, which has its own kitchen and full bath, as well as two decorative fireplaces, one of which has been transformed into a Pinterest-perfect seating nook (we can see why this has been a hit on Airbnb!).

The two-story guest cottage has one bedroom, a full bathroom, and a kitchen. By the looks of it, this would also do really well as a rental property.

Outside, you’ll find a small orchard, a recently built cabana with an outdoor shower, “and plenty of room to add a pool.” If that wasn’t enough, there’s another 2.1-acre property with a restored barn across the road available.
