Property Description
Welcome to August Harpur House, one of Hudson's earliest Federal-style homes, built circa 1790s and brimming with history, old world elegance, and tasteful updates. Located in the heart of Hudson's historic district, this meticulously preserved center-hall residence showcases the craftsmanship of Hudson's post-Revolutionary architecture, and presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of the city's storied past.This distinguished residence invites you in with a sweeping elliptical staircase that anchors the foyer and gracefully ascends three floors. Wide plank floors and original crown molding adorn generously proportioned rooms. Eight original fireplaces, each with period mantels, speak to the home's historical significance and enhance the warmth and charm, while updates including a new furnace ensure modern comfort.The formal dining room, with built-in pantries flanking its fireplace, leads to a well-appointed kitchen with efficient stainless appliances, and a living room that flows into a bright study overlooking the landscaped backyard. The second floor houses the primary bedroom with an ensuite bath and fireplace, plus two additional bedrooms and a bathroom. A vaulted third floor offers flexible space used as a media/game room, and includes guest accommodations with Catskill views, a bathroom, and laundry facilities. The dry functional basement provides a temperature-controlled 1,000 bottle wine cellar, ample storage space, and includes a dedicated workshop for creative projects. Outside, the expansive private yard surrounds a charming gazebo equipped with a ceiling fan and ambient lightingideal for entertaining. A carriage house stands ready for transformation, complete with architect- and engineer-approved plans for a two-bedroom apartment and a garage. This home is the perfect marriage of period grandeur and modern luxury, just steps from Warren Street's renowned restaurants and shops and a block away from the Hudson Amtrak train station, offering a convenient 2-hour ride to the heart of NYC.
