238 Allen Street

A rare, fully restored 1880s clapboard cottage on one of Hudson's most coveted streets. Perfectly laid out floor plan, impeccably renovated, and completely turnkey, this two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home delivers effortless cottage living in the heart of Hudson's vibrant scene. Every system and surface has been thoughtfully updated—new windows and doors, upgraded plumbing and electric, designer lighting and switches, central AC, cozy gas fireplace, closed-cell foam insulation, and a solid wood front door—creating a home that feels historic yet unmistakably polished, comfortable, and easy to maintain. The curb appeal is immediate with a classic wood front porch, fresh exterior paint, brick-faced retaining wall, and professionally designed landscaping - all recently done. Out back, a fully fenced, low-maintenance garden steals the show with: river birch trees, evergreens, and flowering perennials surrounding a stone patio, ideal for afternoon lunches, dinner parties or maybe just evening cocktails after enjoying one of the many restaurants on Warren Street. Outdoor furnishings are all included—arrive, unpack, and start living. Upstairs, two serene en-suite bedrooms offer privacy, comfort, complemented by a second-floor laundry and a charming back porch overlooking the garden. A private rear gate opens to three off-street parking spaces, a new sidewalk, and approved plans for a garage with an ADU unit above—perfect for guest accommodations, a studio, or future income. All in an unmatched location just one block from Feast & Floret, Wylde Coffee Shop, and the award winning Maker Hotel. Also steps away from Hudson's art galleries, boutiques, waterfront, and Amtrak - just a two hour train ride to NYC! A truly rare opportunity to own a beautifully styled, low-maintenance Hudson cottage in one of the city's most sought-after neighborhoods!
