This riverfront home is the kind of getaway we dream of every day. The infinity pool and views of the Hudson River are magnificent – just imagine how calming it is to wake up to views of this calibre every day. Inside, it feels incredibly warm and welcoming, making it perfect for family gatherings and spending time with your loved ones. The screened porch was extremely inviting, it’s the kind of place that inspires you to slow down. While there’s a lot to love about this home, we couldn’t get enough of the garden – manicured and green, it also boasts an infinity pool.

About Hudson
While Upstate New York is used to being overshadowed by the city, a trip up the Hudson brings you to some charming towns and beautiful scenery. The slower pace of life here is an excellent antidote to the frenetic energy of Manhattan and Brooklyn.

Host
This home is managed by Jean
This home is managed directly by its owner who will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Richard and Jean (a retired physician and banker respectively) have owned their Hudson Valley property since 1979 – they even oversaw the construction of the house themselves. Splitting their time between New York and Florida, they love hosting friends and family. When they feel like relaxing, they enjoy a good movie in their screening room and having long conversations on the porch.
