1187 County Route 25

Set along a quiet country road between Hudson and Kinderhook, this 1800s former boarding house offers a peaceful Hudson Valley setting surrounded by farmland and countryside views. Originally built in the 19th century, the home retains its historic character while offering an opportunity for updates to suit modern tastes. An enclosed sunroom with brick floors, walls of windows, and a wood-burning stove provides a bright, welcoming entry year-round. The country kitchen features wooden plank floors which flows into the dining area with newer windows overlooking the property. Original wide-plank wood floors, exposed beams, and period details are found throughout. The layout includes two bedrooms and two full baths on the main level, with two additional bedrooms and a half bath upstairs. The second floor is accessed by a smaller staircase and has lower ceiling heights, best suited for guests, office space, or additional use. A small deck tucked between the house and sunroom offers a private outdoor space for relaxing. The 1.44-acre property includes an in-ground pool set within a natural landscape and a two-story wooden barn with parking and ample storage, offering potential for a workshop or studio. With its location and layout, the property may also lend itself well as a short-term or seasonal rental. Centrally located in Columbia County with easy access to Hudson, Kinderhook, and Chatham, the property is less than 30 minutes to the Capital District and the Berkshires, approximately 15 minutes to the Amtrak station, and about 2 hours to NYC. Located near farm-to-table dining, shopping, galleries, farmers markets, and outdoor recreation, this property offers both convenience and a quiet setting. Being sold as part of an estate and offered in its current condition, it presents an opportunity to update and restore a historic home.
