Clermont Heritage Project 1: Restore, Reimagine, Revive
Set on 14.4 bucolic acres in the heart of Clermont, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom farmhouse with a wood-burning fireplace offers a rare opportunity to restore and reimagine a property steeped in character, history, and natural beauty. Once the vibrant residence of a master gardener, the home was inherited by its current owners. While it shows signs of gentle aging, it brims with potential—every space would benefit from a thoughtful refresh—and remains rich with possibility and anchored by timeless charm.
The land is a treasure in itself: mostly flat, partially wooded, serene, and laced with generous streamside frontage. Two vintage barn structures add texture and versatility to the property—ideal for storage, creative studios, or future guest spaces. Most uniquely, the property directly abuts and connects to the western boundary of the Clermont State Historic Site, offering seamless access to its lush gardens, meadows, and miles of trails. It's a backyard like no other—part private sanctuary, part living museum.
The house stands ready for a smart, budget-conscious restoration. Its bones are strong, the layout traditional and welcoming. With thoughtful updates to the kitchen, baths, and mechanical systems, this home can be beautifully brought into the present while preserving its authentic spirit.
Located minutes from Hudson, Red Hook, Rhinebeck, and Kingston, and accessible via Amtrak, the home offers rural tranquility with urban and cultural proximity. Whether you're drawn by the promise of a pastoral lifestyle, a love of restoration, or the rare chance to live beside one of the Hudson Valley's most treasured public landscapes, this property is a true diamond in the rough—waiting for its next devoted steward. (Construction management and owner's representation services available upon request.)
