With hand-hewn beams, loft space, French doors, and spa-like amenities—including a sauna, steam shower and soaking tub—the space combines rustic elegance with modern comfort, perfect for creative retreats, workshops or wellness sessions.' Part of the estate is also the Farmhouse at Speare Road, which includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms and would be perfect as a guest house. There is also a 'charming cabin complete with a bedroom, bathroom and cozy kitchen.' Along with its beauty, musicians like Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, Johnny Cash, George Harrison and even the Dave Matthews Band have wandered through the home and the walls have heard their voices. The legendary album that was recorded here Whether you know the Woodstock home, it's likely you've seen it before even if not in person. You might recall the cover of Bob Dylan's fifth studio album, Bringing It All Back Home, where Dylan posed with model Sally Grossman in the stunning living room of this home.

Brian Wilson Once Ran into Bob Dylan in the Emergency Room and Sparked a Friendship: 'Nice Guy'
Two years before Brian Wilson's death at age 82, the Beach Boys co-founder shared a story about meeting Bob Dylan The two musicians struck up a conversation in an emergency room "I invited him over to my house for lunch the next day," recalled Wilson in 2023Brian Wilson and Bob Dylan's friendship was sparked in an unlikely place. Two years before Wilson's death at age 82, which his family announced on Wednesday, June 11, the Beach Boys co-founder and singer shared a sweet story about running into Bob Dylan at a hospital and later having a conversation about music over lunch. "Once I was in the Malibu emergency room getting a weigh-in and this guy walked up to me," wrote Wilson in a May 2023 post on Facebook. "He had curly hair and was on the short side. 'Are you Brian Wilson?' he asked. 'Yeah,' I said. 'Hi,' he said. 'I'm Bob Dylan.'" The Pet Sounds artist explained Dylan, 84, was in the hospital with a broken thumb. "We talked a little bit about nothing," he continued. "I was a big fan of his lyrics, of course," said Wilson, citing "Like a Rolling Stone," "Mr. Tambourine Man" and "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" as some of his favorites. "What a songwriter!" The emergency room run-in then turned into a friendship between the two iconic musicians. "I invited him over to my house for lunch the next day," recalled Wilson. "That was a longer conversation. We just talked and talked about music. We talked about old songs we remembered, songs before rock and roll. We talked about ideas we had. Nice guy." At the time, Wilson shared a photo of himself posing with Dylan — though it's unclear exactly when the photo was taken, or when the interaction went down. More recently, Dylan celebrated Wilson's 80th year around the sun by singing "Happy Birthday" to him in a video. "That ear," the "Blowin' in the Wind" singer once said about him, according to the New York Times. "I mean, Jesus, he's got to will that to the Smithsonian."

Bob Dylan joined by Billy Strings for cover of All Along The Watchtower
Bob Dylan performed 'All Along the Watchtower' with Billy Strings. During his latest set at Willie Nelson's 'Outlaw Music Festival Tour' in Spokane, Washington, on May 22, the music legend performed a fresh rendition of his 1967 hit at the piano with the 32-year-old bluegrass rocker on acoustic guitar. At another stop on the tour, Dylan performed 'Mr. Tambourine Man' live for the first time in 15 years. Near the end of his set, on May 13, he dusted of his 1965 classic. The evening ended with another surprise as Dylan covered The Pogues' 'A Rainy Night in Soho' to close off the 13-track setlist. Dylan also performed 'Forgetful Heart' for the first time since 2015 and many more live rarities. Earlier this year, two pages of Bob Dylan's lyrics sold for more than half a million dollars. The 83-year-old singer was the subject of a sale from Julien's Auctions in Nashville, with over 60 items - including photos, music sheets, a guitar, and art work - going under the hammer, generating almost $1.5 million in both in-person and online bidding and sales. And the typewritten two pages of Dylan's drafted lyrics to 'Mr. Tambourine Man' accounted for one third of the total sales, with the winning bidder agreeing to fork out $508,000. The yellow sheets of paper also included the folk legend's handwritten annotations to the three drafts of the 1965 songs. The next highest-selling items were a 1968 oil-on-canvas painting created and signed by the 'Lay Lady Lay' singer in 1968 and a custom 1983 Fender guitar which he had owned and played, which went for $260,000 and $225,000 respectively. All but 10 of the lots were from the personal collection of late music journalist Al Aronowitz, and his son Myles told the New York Times newspaper he'd found Dylan's lyrics while searching through 250 boxes of his father's "remarkable" collection over a period of several years.

Bob Dylan dusts off Mr. Tambourine Man for first performance in 15 years
Bob Dylan performed 'Mr. Tambourine Man' live for the first time in 15 years. The music legend performed at Willie Nelson's 'Outlaw Music Festival Tour' on Tuesday (13.05.25) and near the end of the set he dusted of his 1965 classic.

He noted: 'He never threw anything away." The journalist had previously claimed Dylan had written the original drafts in his New Jersey home after splitting from girlfriend Suze Rotolo. According to the auction house,Al wrote in a 1973 article: "Bob Dylan wrote 'Mr. Tambourine Man' one night in my house in Berkeley Heights, N.J., sitting with my portable typewriter at my white formica breakfast bar in a swirl of chain-lit cigaret [sic] smoke, his bony, long-nailed fingers tapping the words out on my stolen, canary-colored Saturday Evening Post copy paper while the whole time, over and over again, Marvin Gaye sang 'Can I Get a Witness?' from the 6-foot speakers of my hi-fi in the room next to where he was, with Bob getting up from the typewriter each time the record finished in order to put the needle back at the start.(sic)" He later 'found a waste basket full of crumpled false starts" and though he was about to take them to the trash, he took out the "crumpled sheets, smoothed them out, read the crazy leaping lines" and then put them in a file.
