The 8,500-square-foot home, known as Meri-Mac Farm, rests on 17.4 sprawling acres featuring a stable, run-in sheds and a horse pasture, which will sell to the highest bidder without reserve on auction day. “The current owner took great care to preserve the original, rustic charm of the farm home, which was built in 1871. Luxury additions — like the glass-enclosed 2,000 bottle wine cellar with a large tasting room and connected catering kitchen — add to the appeal of this property,” said Daniel DeCaro, DeCaro Luxury Real Estate Auctions Founder and Auctioneer. “This auction is an opportunity for homebuyers to own the perfect year-round or vacation retreat in an area of New York where families and celebrities alike go to escape.” The main home at Meri-Mac Farm features three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, one half bathroom and nine living, dining and entertainment areas, including a library, music room that can serve as a fourth bedroom, home office and a third-floor storage area with a balcony. The basement also includes the climate-controlled wine cellar, tasting room and full kitchen, as well as laundry and storage rooms.

The home’s gourmet master kitchen boasts two-story vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams and a hand-crafted pendant light fixture that hangs above the kitchen’s L-shaped peninsula, which features granite countertops and an eight-burner gas cooktop with a built-in grill, as well as a free-hanging stainless-steel range hood above.

The master bedroom features a fireplace, four walk-in closets with a separate dressing room, an exercise space, an additional sitting area. Sliding glass doors also lead to a large deck that spans the entire rear of the home. Expansive, manicured grounds at Meri-Mac Farm include an in-ground pool; a pool house with a full kitchen; a three-stall horse stable and several run-in sheds; a fenced-in pasture; a rose garden with a water feature; and a three-car garage. A separate guest house also provides two additional bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as a full kitchen, a living room, office space and a washer and dryer. In addition, the new owner of Meri-Mac Farm will have the opportunity to purchase an adjacent 23-acre lot that overlooks Round Pond. Amenia is located in the Eastern part of Dutchess County, 45 minutes from Westchester County and is easily accessible by car via New York State Route 22 and U.S. Route 44.

Meri-Mac Farm is open for prospective buyers to view from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. The last scheduled open house will be held the day before the auction from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 19.
