Poetic sunsets and Hudson River views await at this historic Hyde Park property. Set atop a hill, this refined and elegant Victorian boasts year round river views on park-like land. A circular driveway leads to the private and enchanted setting on over 4 acres. Meticulously maintained and retaining its historic pedigree, the original slate roof, marble fireplaces, plaster crown moldings and crystal chandelier provide a notable backdrop for contemporary art, furniture and lighting. Floor to ceiling windows with French doors and original antique glass frame the living and dining rooms which have many built-ins. A large wrap around porch allows for gracious entertaining while overlooking the river and sprawling back lawn which hosts many glorious and stately old growth trees. The newly renovated and light filled kitchen is updated with a chef's Viking gas stove and high end appliances. Enjoy a kitchen garden or exotic flowers year round in the sun drenched conservatory. The second floor hosts two large sized primary bedrooms with one in-between which could also serve as a large dressing room or expanded primary bathroom. For the artist, writer or musician there is a cozy semi-finished attic with heat and river views. A newly installed 20 x 50' heated gunite pool and pool house make this a perfect summer residence. Less than 15 minutes from Rhinebeck Village, Metro North in Poughkeepsie, Vassar, Marist College, the Culinary Institute and within walking distance to the Hudson River and the Vanderbilt and Roosevelt Estates and trails. An ideal weekend or full-time property only 2 hours from NYC, this is a rare offering and opportunity to purchase one of the last available historic Hudson River homes.,Basement:Interior Access,InteriorFeatures:Beamed Ceilings,Gas Stove Connection,Level 3 Desc:SEMI-FINISHED ATTIC/STUDIO/LIBRARY WITH RIVER VIEWS,Level 1 Desc:LIVINGROOM, DININGROOM, KITCHEN, FULL BATH, SUNROOM,AboveGrade:2168,ExteriorFeatures:Landscaped,Outside Lighting,Cabana,ROOF:Rubber,Slate,Heating:Zoned,OTHERROOMS:Sun Room,Florida Room,Office/Computer Room,Level 2 Desc:PRIMARY BEDROOM, TWO ADDITIONAL BEDROOMS, FULL BATHROOM,FOUNDATION:Stone,EQUIPMENT:Carbon Monoxide Detector,Smoke Detectors,Water Filter,Cooling:Zoned,FLOORING:Tile,Wood,Wide Board
