The Hudson Valley
Athens Victorian
Greenewood…a house built in 1866, surrounded by trees, with spacious rooms, high ceilings, large windows, the light changing beautifully as the day progresses, all packed to the rafters with a dense homage to 19th century decorative arts, creating a rich and immersive nest of atmospheres. The front and back parlors, redolent in russet and golds, the stair hall replete with landscape paintings as a nod to the Hudson River School. Other rooms include four bedrooms, each with their own personality, be it French, Catholic, Floral or Spartan, a study full of antique photography, the kitchen with its great collection of blue and white ironstone, the summer kitchen and a solarium, verdant with dozens of plants.
Thomas Cole National Historic Site
The Thomas Cole National Historic Site in Catskill, NY, marks the birthplace of the formative art movement of the United States, the Hudson River School of American landscape painting, which was founded by Thomas Cole (1801-1848). The nationally recognized historic site is an affiliate of the National Park Service and operates as a forward-thinking nonprofit organization embracing change and continually pursuing authenticity and resonance. Thomas Cole’s profound influence on America’s cultural landscape and the historic context of his work inspires us to engage broad audiences through innovative educational programs that are relevant today.
Hudson Riverfront Farmhouse
This 1880 farmhouse is completely reimagined and beautifully renovated with luxurious finishes with a great sense of design. The house offers breathtaking views of the Hudson River and the Berkshire Mountains and is situated at the end of a long driveway, separated from the road by a beautiful pond with a fountain.
Early Hudson Home
This early example of classic Federal style architecture was built by a Nantucket ship captain in 1795. Not only is it rich in history, but it’s also rich in natural light thanks to its many windows and impressive French doors leading from the stunning chef’s kitchen out to a beautiful private garden.
The home features three spacious bedrooms, original wide board floors, brick and beams throughout the house, and a mix of sleek contemporary design with modernist influence and historical accents.
