Dear Friends, Old and New,
The leaves are floating quietly, a good time to reflect on the beauty of nature and the future needs of your family. We invite you to explore the many residential treasures available in the Greater Hudson Valley area we represent. Our firm represents some wonderful historic properties, as well as those that represent the finest design of subsequent eras.
Our newest gem is the beautifully restored and enhanced, circa 1776, “Horton-Sayer Homestead set in a peaceful 5 acre garden within driving distance to the artistic town center of Warwick. It is said to have been built by Benjamin Horton, a direct descendent of Barnabas Horton who came to America in 1635. Benjamin was a Captain in the Colonial troops during the French and Indian Wars.
Another period jewel is The Freedom House, a 1749 historic treasure in Piermont on Hudson, recently restored by the history preservationist/owner. This pre-Revolutionary War era home is an integrated part of the area’s history. It is said that it may have served as a hideout for Aaron Burr after he killed Alexander Hamilton in a duel. More recently it served as the home of John Crawford, one of Jim Henson’s former puppet makers.
The owner of Freedom House also serves as the creator of a future program for children at the Rockland Center for the Arts, an exciting series of baseball coaching events by local professional players
Two updated modern gems we care for are just 20 minutes to the G. Washington bridge-a 10 room modern gem surrounding a spa-pool centered, woodland garden in Palisades and a 12 room, skylit, home within sight of their private soccer field!
