VEDDERWOOD
A rare opportunity to own a beautiful restored circa 1800 farmhouse, well located within Greene County. Set on 1.5 acres of rolling countryside, this historic residence was part of the larger Vedder Farm, established by early Dutch settlers. The sprawling house was once an early inn for travelers headed via railway to the famed Catskill Mountain House. Today Vedderwood has been thoughtfully and meticulously renovated to preserve its architectural integrity, while offering the comforts of modern farmhouse living. At approximately 3,800 square feet, Vedderwood seamlessly blends original early character with contemporary convenience. New systems throughout, including central air conditioning, updated plumbing and electrical, insulated windows, all under a new roof to ensure peace of mind for future generations.
The main floor is beautifully laid out for gathering and entertaining and features a gracious open-plan kitchen and dining area, gracious living room with light filled bay window, den, full bathroom and expansive deck. Original architectural details remain intact throughout, including a classic center-hall plan, double parlors, and wide-plank wood floors that lend warmth and authenticity throughout the house. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms and two full modern baths provide comfortable accommodations for family and friends. Two front bedrooms have direct access to upper decks for morning coffee, and the serene primary suite retains the original fireplace mantle and hearth. A separate office and secondary back staircase create an ideal retreat for remote work, creative pursuits, or guest quarters.
The house is located in the heart of the Hudson River Valley, offering easy access to scenic landscapes and parks, mountain ski resorts, numerous restaurants, art galleries, and national historic sites. Located just 15 minutes from the Hudson Amtrak train station and approximately 2.5 hours from New York City, Vedderwood offers the perfect balance of tranquility and accessibility. A timeless upstate farmhouse, restored with care and awaiting its next chapter.
