Historic Dream House on the River in Hudson
A romantic, old-world "cottage" built at the very end of the Gilded Age.
A historic getaway dubbed "Greendale" built in 1900, with a Hudson area code—and it's right on the Hudson River. 158 Greendale Road is a romantic, old-world "cottage" built at the very end of the Gilded Age, and it's got that feeling throughout. There's a double-height living room with beams and a balcony, six bedrooms, four bathrooms, and an abundance of outdoor space, including a verandah pointed at the river and a stone pool tucked away in a secret garden's worth of ivy.
For something in Hudson, it's also quite private, down a gravel driveway lined with mature perennials. The property is 2.5 acres, and at 4,157 square feet, seems like a great fit for entertaining or hosting lots of guests. This type of Hudson River estate really is a page from times past, and stands as an architectural examples of a time when prosperity led to "headstrong eclecticism" with references to styles from all over the world as well as materials that ground it to the area, like traditional red bricks.
158 Greendale Road is listed for $3,500,000 by Catherine Visen and Gina Fox at William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty—Heather Croner Brokerage.
