About the Property
Rarely do you find a property with such an up-close view of the Hudson River, offering a front-row seat to sailboats gliding by, tugboats slowly making their way along the water, and the romantic sound of the train.
For generations, this home has stood watch over the Hudson, with a story that appears to reach back more than two centuries. While town records list the home as built in 1900, hist

Rarely do you find a property with such an up-close view of the Hudson River, offering a front-row seat to sailboats gliding by, tugboats slowly making their way along the water, and the romantic sound of the train.
For generations, this home has stood watch over the Hudson, with a story that appears to reach back more than two centuries. While town records list the home as built in 1900, historical records associated with the property indicate its history may reach back to the early 1800s. Remarkably, the home has been continuously lived in through the generations.
Set along the banks of the Hudson, beneath the Walkway Over the Hudson and Mid-Hudson Bridge, this three-story home is filled with character, with generously sized rooms, fireplaces, original details and a fourth floor tower offering a remarkable vantage point to watch life on the river go by.
Surrounded by beautiful gardens and a substantial lawn, the property offers wonderful outdoor space overlooking the water, a setting that is increasingly hard to find.
The home requires substantial renovation, but therein lies the opportunity: to thoughtfully restore its character, honor its history, and bring this Hudson River beauty back to its former glory. The work may be significant, but the setting is irreplaceable and the views are timeless.
Franny Reese State Park is just minutes away for hiking and nature, while the train station, New Paltz, and Poughkeepsie are all within easy reach.
For the buyer with vision, this is more than a renovation project. It is an opportunity to become part of the continuing story of a remarkable home in an extraordinary Hudson River setting.

At Corcoran Country Living, real estate is our passion.
Corcoran Country Living was founded in 2020 by Jason Karadus and Marie-Claire
Gladstone, both top performing NYC real estate experts and long-time residents
of the Hudson Valley. Jason and Marie-Claire acquired two, well established and
reputable local firms - Paula Redmond Real Estate on the east side of the Hudson
River and Lawrence O’Toole Realty on the west - to bring the esteemed Corcoran
Brand to the region.
For many discerning Hudson Valley home buyers and sellers, we are the firm of
choice because we produce results. Our team of 70+ local agents has unparalleled
sales experience in the Dutchess, Columbia, Ulster, Greene, Putnam, and
Orange counties. We are also licensed in Connecticut, serving Litchfield County
and surrounding areas. We specialize in helping clients buy or sell their home -
or their second home - with confidence. Our sellers benefit from our
incomparable reach to NYC buyers and from our collaborative marketing efforts
with The Corcoran Group, the #1 real estate company in NYC.
At Corcoran Country Living, we love what we do and love where we live. It’s easy
because the Hudson Valley is surrounded by exceptional beauty, noted
architecture, and a vast history. And because we understand the importance of
land conservancy, we strive to help continue open space, rural life, and
farming.
We offer a rare combination of absolute commitment to integrity, a dedication to
personalized
customer service, and a vast knowledge of all aspects of buying, selling, and
marketing real estate in the markets where we live and work. With offices in
Rhinebeck, Millbrook, Kingston, Woodstock, and Hudson, Corcoran Country Living
