Approached from a leafy and secluded driveway amongst an enclave of other waterfront estates, you arrive at this bucolic homestead. Set on a verdant bluff with mature trees and plantings, enjoy stunning vistas from vantage points both inside and out.
The stately historic home seamlessly mixes original character and details — like two decorative fireplaces, hardwood floors, and never-painted wainscoting and mouldings — with a long list of updates. Enjoy cleanly-designed bathrooms and recent efficiency upgrades, like improved insulation and new mini splits throughout. Front and back parlors, two staircases, numerous bay windows and a wraparound porch with original ornate woodwork all speak to the grand style now imbued with a warm and laidback vibe, perfect for weekend or full-time living.
A new owner has room to make their own mark with a kitchen update that, depending on need, could easily expand into the existing sunroom area. The third floor of the house features a large accessory studio with full bathroom, that could be converted back to a rental unit by restoring the kitchen (plumbing hookups still in place). Additional living space might also be created on the second floor of the two-car garage or inside the charming two-level red barn.
A heated in-ground saline swimming pool also enjoys the river view, as does the firepit close by — and don’t miss the putting green on the far end of the grassy lawn!
Buttermilk Falls Inn & Spa, with well-known farm-to-table restaurant Henry’s, is just down the road — as is the Locust Grove Farm & Brewing Co, open on weekends with a rotating lineup of craft beverages and food trucks. Enjoy shopping and dining options in New Paltz, just 20 min away — and the burgeoning scene in nearby Highland (recently featured in the NY Times), with access to the Walkway over the Hudson, just 10 minutes north.
A perfect access point for all the best of the Hudson Valley, yet just 90 minutes by car from Midtown Manhattan and 15 minutes to the MetroNorth station in Poughkeepsie, this is a unique opportunity to land a classic Hudson River house and setting, with easy access to and from NYC.
