Charming 19th-Century Farmhouse & Guest Cottage

$649,000

2 Beds • 2 Baths • 1,440 Sq Ft • 7.7 Acres • Taxes: $4,003/yr

This 1840 farmhouse, full of enduring charm, sits on nearly eight acres of open lawns, mature trees, and woodland just outside Hudson. With its guest cottage and beautiful natural surroundings, it is a welcoming country retreat with space to gather, relax, and grow.

The living room is centered around a brick fireplace with a graceful mantelpiece and includes a cozy alcove that makes an inviting reading nook. The space flows into a sunny dining area with built-in cupboards and shelving, and then into the chef’s kitchen, equipped with a Garland range, Viking refrigerator, and new butcher block countertops. Just off the kitchen, a generous mudroom opens directly to the lawns and also provides interior access to the basement, while a bright sunroom extends the living space and opens out to a lovely deck shaded by a majestic maple tree.

Upstairs, an expansive bedroom with beamed cathedral ceilings, abundant windows, a full vintage bath, and a sitting area creates a true sanctuary. Once configured as three bedrooms, this level retains the flexibility to be easily repartitioned into multiple sleeping spaces.

The updated guest cottage adds approx. 520 sq. ft. of additional living space and is a delightful complement to the farmhouse. It features a flexible main-level room with a Murphy bed ideal as a home office or guest suite, contemporary bath with glass-enclosed shower, French doors that open to a private deck, and a spacious bedroom on the upper level. 

Outside, the property includes a gazebo, a new shed, and meadows that stretch into woodlands, creating a landscape that feels both expansive and secluded. An area at the property’s highest point offers views of the Catskills and would potentially make an ideal spot to build a future main residence, while retaining the farmhouse and cottage as guest dwellings and creating a unique compound. Just a thought!

Recent updates throughout the property include new exterior doors, bathroom floor tile, kitchen countertops, siding repairs and exterior paint, driveway and fencing, a new water heater and filtration system, and a mini split in the guest house.

Located in Claverack, the property is just 10 minutes from Hudson’s renowned restaurants and shops on and around Warren St, 15 minutes to the Amtrak station, and just 2 hours from NYC. So many other great towns including Coxsackie, Catskill, Germantown, Tivoli, Chatham, Kinderhook, Leeds, Athens, and many more are all just about 20 minutes away. Nature enthusiasts can enjoy the outdoors at Olana, Stockport Flats, Greenport, the Taconic Trails, the Berkshires, and more! This charming farmhouse with guest cottage is a truly special offering in an ideal Hudson Valley location!
