284 County Route 27b,

Meadowood is an 1840 farmhouse full of enduring charm that sits on nearly eight acres of open lawns, mature trees, and woodland just outside Hudson. With its guest cottage and beautiful natural surroundings, it is a welcoming country retreat with space to gather, relax, and grow. The living room is centered around a brick fireplace with a graceful mantelpiece and includes a cozy alcove that makes an inviting reading nook. The space flows into a sunny dining area with built-in cupboards and shelving, and then into the chef's kitchen, equipped with a Garland range, Viking refrigerator, and new butcher block countertops. Just off the kitchen, a generous mudroom opens directly to the lawns and also provides interior access to the basement, while a bright sunroom extends the living space and opens out to a lovely deck shaded by a majestic maple tree. Upstairs, an expansive bedroom with soaring beamed cathedral ceilings, abundant windows, a full vintage bath, and a sitting area creates a true sanctuary and an airy, light-filled retreat unlike most farmhouses of its era. Having once been configured as three bedrooms, this level retains the flexibility to grow with you, offering the ease of being easily repartitioned if desired. The updated guest cottage adds approx. 520 sq. ft. of additional living space and is a delightful complement to the farmhouse. It features a flexible room with a Murphy bed presently used as a home office, a contemporary bath with glass-enclosed shower, French doors that open to a private deck, and a spacious bedroom on the upper level. Perfect for visitors, it offers a retreat-like experience that allows guests to feel both at home and independent. Outdoors, the property invites long, leisurely days and evenings in nature: sip your morning coffee in the gazebo to a soundtrack of birdsong, lounge in a hammock beneath the shade of an old cedar tree, gather around the firepit to stargaze, or let your dog roam freely in the fenced yard. Meadows that stretch into woodland add to the sense of privacy and expanse while a new shed holds all the essentials of country living. A trail, dappled and a little wild, winds up through the woods to the property's ridge, where Catskills views open wide. At this highest point, you might imagine a tea house, yoga or meditation platform, sauna, or glamping site. With so much room to grow, it could even be the site for a future home, keeping the farmhouse and cottage as part of a unique compound. Recent updates throughout the property include new exterior doors, bathroom floor tile, kitchen countertops, siding repairs and exterior paint, driveway and fencing, a new water heater and filtration system, new gutters, a new boiler, and a mini split in the guest house. Meadowood is located in Claverack, the property is just 10 minutes from Hudson's renowned restaurants and shops on and around Warren St, 15 minutes to the Amtrak station, and just 2 hours from NYC. So many other great towns—including Coxsackie, Catskill, Germantown, Tivoli, Chatham, Kinderhook, Leeds, and Athens—are all just about 20 minutes away. Nature enthusiasts can enjoy the outdoors at Olana, Stockport Flats, Greenport, the Taconic Trails, the Berkshires, and more. This charming farmhouse with guest cottage is a truly special offering in an ideal Hudson Valley location.
