Experience Sustainable Living at Mills Cross Farm, Staatsburg, NY - Welcome to Mills Cross Farm, a solar-powered homestead in the beautiful Hyde Park, NY hamlet of Staatsburg. This spacious colonial is set at the end of a long driveway on a serene 5.47-acre parcel. The current owners have cultivated a vibrant and sustainable farmstead, complete with two large paddocks secured by electric fencing and a spring-fed pond with spillway. Whether you're dreaming of raising chickens or want to expand your existing flock, the 6'x8' Amish-built chicken coop with six nesting boxes and the 6'x12' covered run are both move-in ready.

What sets Mills Cross Farm apart from others is its commitment to sustainable living. The home is entirely powered by solar panels installed with a new roof in 2021. Excess energy generated is fed back into the grid, providing the owners with credits from Central Hudson - a significant cost-saving benefit.

Three additional bedrooms and a full guest bathroom complete the floor. The attached two-car garage offers extra storage.
