Our large house offers the perfect retreat for families & groups seeking a memorable getaway. Nestled on 11 beautiful acres in a peaceful and charming neighborhood, you'll love the resort-like amenities, such as the pool with water slide and the large patio with ample seating & a built-in firepit. Very private, yet close to great shopping, restaurants, farms, and more, plus it's only 1 hour from NYC.
The space
A long, private driveway ascends a serene hillside to this grand Mid-Hudson, NY estate surrounded by nature, providing the privacy and serenity required for a wonderful getaway. This modern home is an impressive 5,500 sq ft, which includes 9 bedrooms, 7 full bathrooms, 2 living rooms, a big dining room with seating for 20. Three of the bed/baths are en suite. Please note that we are limited to 24 overnight guests.
There are several alfresco dining areas, as well as a large gas BBQ grill. Gather your group at the huge, teakwood, patio dining table. Serve up a fresh farm-to-table lunch of produce from the local Blooming Hill farmers market. The pool is a wonderful place to enjoy the summer heat, with a super fun slide to keep the kids entertained. Please note that the pool is open from approximately June 15 to Sept 1.
The front veranda, with its panoramic views of the rolling landscape, is a great place to enjoy a glass of wine from local Brotherhood Vineyard, America’s oldest winery, which is just up the road. After a day of Hudson Valley sightseeing, gather your group for s’mores and cocktails around the firepit.
You'll have access to ample driveway parking space.
The fully stocked chef’s kitchen features finely-crafted, honey-hued, hardwood cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a french door fridge/freezer combo with ice-maker, dishwasher, microwave and gas-range. A large dining table just off the kitchen that seats 20 guests is the ideal spot for group meals.
We also have a separate kosher kitchen, but you must request access to it prior to booking and be approved in order to use it.
