Property Description

Historic Elijah Hudson Homestead & Farm Welcome to the Elijah Hudson homestead and farm in the hamlet of Malden Bridge, NY. Steeped in rich history dating back to the mid-1700s, this property boasts a captivating past as a colonial-era inn, a meeting place for traveling preachers, and the farm of the Federal Stores mercantile co-founder (Old Chatham). The homestead offers a glimpse into the region's storied past, with authentic features preserved to honor its heritage. The property encompasses 43 acres of picturesque land, including perennial gardens, heritage trees, sprawling fields, and tranquil woods teeming with wildlife. Two historic barns, including a remarkable German horse barn and a recently restored Dutch dairy barn, stand as testaments to the property's enduring legacy. The Dutch barn presents a blank canvas for the next owner's vision, while the German barn offers versatile finished spaces for entertainment, hobbies, and more. Experience the best of country living in this idyllic retreat, where generations have gathered to celebrate life's milestones and forge lasting memories. With its proximity to local amenities, recreational opportunities, and vibrant community life, the Elijah Hudson homestead offers an opportunity to own a piece of living history in the heart of upstate New York. Don't miss your chance to write the next chapter in this timeless legacy. Prime Location: Ideally located near Hudson, Kinderhook, Chatham, and The Berkshires, this home offers easy access to fine dining, art galleries, farmers' markets, and outdoor activities such as cross-country skiing and snowshoeing on the property, downhill skiing nearby, canoeing on local lakes, rivers, and ponds, as well as hiking and swimming. Its proximity to major routes, including the Taconic Parkway (just 10 minutes away), Amtrak, and Albany International Airport, ensures convenient travel to NYC, Boston, and beyond. This is a rare opportunity to own an inspiring and private mountaintop retreat.
