Stylishly restored 1868 Farmhouse and Guest House
1868 stylishly restored center hall Colonial with guest house, ten minutes from Hudson and Germantown. Completely renovated in 2015, the house features wide plank, original hardwood floors, completely new kitchen, bathrooms, electric, heating and central air conditioning. With four bedrooms, three baths, open kitchen/living room with direct access to screen porch, the home is perfect for entertaining, either outdoors or in the formal dining room. No detail has been spared in this renovation — LED Edison light bulbs and recessed lighting for energy efficiency, original details such as restored tin ceilings, doors and windows with Indow Window storms, make this old new house a special home in the Hudson Valley.
The guest house is a 1,000 sq. ft. post and beam barn converted into a three season, decorator designed modern cottage with full bath, kitchen and wood burning stove. There is a flagstone patio surrounded by stone walls and garden beds, reminiscent of a European courtyard along with the original sliding barn door. Currently used as an AirBnB rental ($10,000 annually!), it could be used as an artist’s studio or office.
The house is located in the historic hamlet of Livingston, conveniently located between Hudson and Germantown. The hamlet features a seasonal farmers market, a historic church, historic barns and other gems of Hudson Valley history.
