Property Description
This majestic 1825 Federal home on the banks of the Hudson River was designed by architect Barnabas Waterman for Anthony Livingston. Steeped in history, the house has undergone an extensive - yet sensitive - restoration. Enter into a grand hallway with Double Parlors to the right and a formal DR on the left. Original Federal flourishes abound with acanthus leaf capitals and entablatures, corinthian columns, and intact mantels and moulding. The high ceilings and tall windows provides extraordinary elegance, light and comfort. A thoughtful KTCHN renovation and 1/2 Bath for 21st century convenience. Upstairs is a Full BTH and four spacious and airy Bedrooms, the Master with ensuite BTH. The walk - out lower level features a FMLY RM with FRPL, a full BTH and the original KTCHN with hearth and beehive oven. A stroll past the box-wood garden leads to a 3-bay Garage with Studio and 1/2 Bath above, perfect for artist, home office or guests. Conv. to Thruway, Catskill, Hudson. 2- hrs NY
