Property Description
A rare opportunity for the passionate preservationist and visionary restorer. Dating to 1763, this remarkable Dutch H-bent farmhouse awaits someone with the imagination, resources, and appreciation for early American architecture to bring it back to life.
Offering approximately 2,500 square feet, this historic home features three upstairs bedrooms and an extraordinary collection of architectural details: original plaster walls, hand-hewn beams, historic windows and doors, period moldings, fireplaces, and wattle-and-daub walls.
Remarkably free of out-of-character additions, the home's last significant renovation dates to approximately 1860, when Victorian influences transformed the front rooms and introduced the front porch. A separate side porch with a cedar ceiling adds another layer of charm.
Rich in history and architectural integrity, this is a true restoration opportunity for a buyer with the passion, vision, and resources to preserve its irreplaceable character.
Conveniently located near Eleanor Roosevelt's Val-Kill Historic Site, the Culinary Institute of America, and MetroNorth/Amtrak, the property offers a compelling connection to the Hudson Valley's historic and cultural heritage.
The bones are here. The history remains. The possibilities are extraordinary!!
An opportunity not simply to restore a house, but to become the next steward of a remarkable piece of American history.
