707 Springtown Road, Tillson, NY 12486

A Storied Early 1800s Eyebrow Colonial on a Private Spring-Fed Lake! Set on 4+ pastoral acres in the rolling countryside at the foot of the Shawangunk Ridge, 707 Springtown Road is the kind of property where history meets you at the door. Built in the early 1800s and thoughtfully expanded over the years, this rare Eyebrow Colonial predates the Town of Rosendale itself and sits along a road that once served as the main southern thoroughfare from Kingston, a route that in the 18th and 19th centuries hummed with stagecoaches, cattle drovers, and roadside inns. Today, that same road winds quietly past some of the most beloved historic homes in the region. The home is liveable as it stands. Move in, settle in, and take on the rare and rewarding opportunity to honor its rich heritage while reimagining it for the way we live today, on your own timeline.The bones of the house speak for themselves. Hand-hewn beams, original doors, and original windows reflect a level of craftsmanship that simply cannot be replicated. The kitchen, a historic addition in its own right, features a wood-slatted ceiling salvaged from the historic barn across the street, a woodstove for chilly evenings, and direct access to both the deck and the screened porch.The layout is where the possibilities open up. As you step inside, rooms open to either side of the entry. To one side, a self-contained room anchored by a stately (non-working) fireplace makes an ideal home office, library, or cozy retreat, tucked away from the rhythm of family life. To the other, the homes largest gathering room, light-filled and graced by a beautiful bay window, already flows directly into the kitchen, hinting at an effortless reconfiguration. Knock through, open it all up, and you have the expansive open-concept great room of your dreams: kitchen, dining, and living unified as one, anchored by walls of glass that pull the lake and gardens right inside.But the real magic is the light and the land. Sunshine pours into nearly every room, and the back of the home opens onto a deck overlooking the propertys crown jewel: a private, spring-fed lake framed by towering locust trees and layers of lush, established landscape. Morning mist on the water, sunset reflections through the trees, and long evenings by a fire pit at the edge come standard. The main-level primary suite, complete with its own full ensuite bath featuring a claw-foot tub, stall shower, and beautiful barnwood shiplap, is poised to be reimagined as a true sanctuary, opening directly onto the deck so your mornings begin with coffee and water views. Just across the hall, a main-floor laundry with a nearly new washer and dryer included adds everyday convenience. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms with generous closets and a full bath are perfectly suited for kids or guests, keeping the everyday flow of life on the main level, where it belongs.Beyond the home, the grounds carry a character all their own. A historic outbuilding, the forge for the horse farm that supplied the livery stable in downtown Rosendale, stands as a reminder of the propertys industrious past and is brimming with possibility: art studio, workshop, or guest cottage. The original hitching post still stands at the front of the property, a quietly extraordinary detail that connects this land directly to the era of horses and carriages that once defined this road. A covered front porch rounds out the exterior comforts, and the kitchen is equipped with a gas range, pantry, and dishwasher.This is a rare offering for th
