36 Riverview Street, Stuyvesant, NY, 12173 | $925,000

Rare are the days when houses like this come along; a truly move in-ready, quintessential Victorian with modern conveniences and timeless aesthetics. The c. 1890 Riverview House showcases the intrinsic sophistication of a Victorian without the fussiness, and boasts all the things: 2, 700+ sq ft, 4 bedrooms, 2 large full baths, a pool, a writing studio - all set on 1–acre edged by mature trees. The house itself feels like a breath of fresh air; think natural light, high ceilings, a showstopping staircase and ornate, original front door, well-sized common spaces and four bedrooms (including a first floor primary), all with thoughtful historical details. There’s a large eat-in kitchen and dining room with seating for more than 10, and a sunny living room perfect for watching the boats go by. Catch a cocktail on the deep, storybook front porch, write your next novel in the detached studio, lounge by the pool. All of the heavy lifting has been done for you; with its new roof, generac generator, well maintained mechanicals and fresh paint inside and out, this is a house that checks all the boxes; modern updates, old school charm, and natural light so extraordinary, sunsets feel as if they were painted by Hudson River School artists. The Riverview House bookends a friendly street of equally lovely, well cared-for homes with generous off-street parking. The tightly-knit hamlet of Stuyvesant also offers a nearby boat launch, a sandy beach, countless hiking trails, nearby farm stands, distilleries, and so much good ice cream. The north county location cannot be beat-15 minutes to Hudson, 15 minutes to Kinderhook, a short drive to creature comforts in Albany and just over two hours from Midtown.
