Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
A grand townhouse in the middle of Hudson, Venus In Furs is not only a great place for exploring the Catskills and the Hudson Valley, but it’s also a destination in its own right. Whether sinking into the plush Chesterfield, or spending long evenings around the fire pit, you have plenty of options when it comes to relaxation. There’s a serious kitchen as well as a grill, but if you aren’t feeling like cooking yourself, the restaurants start from about a block away, while you can also reach the banks of the river in about ten minutes on foot.
