$635,000

Discover Coxsackie--a historic river town. This is what 635,000 buys you: three private acres, seasonal river views, municipal water and sewer--all in the heart of town. A stroll along the Hudson River feels like stepping back in time, with its preserved period architecture and historic district. A revitalized riverfront park, boat launch, restaurants, shops and the James Newbury Hotel add to Coxsackie's exceptional value compared with Catskill, Athens and Hudson. Tucked well back from the road yet a short stroll to town, the property feels like a private country retreat. Custom built by its current owners and offered for the first time, this four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home offers easy one-level living. Inside, an open floor plan, cathedral ceiling, sunken living room and abundant windows create a bright, airy feel. The spacious kitchen flows into the dining and living areas--perfect for casual entertaining or formal dinners that spill onto the large deck for views, conversation and the sounds of nature. All four bedrooms are privately situated away from the main living areas, including a generous primary with en-suite bath. Main-level laundry adds convenience. An enormous unfinished basement provides abundant storage and space for a gym, workshop or recreation area. Four split heating and cooling units and a Buderus boiler provide year-round comfort. Outside, park-like grounds continue down the hillside, offering privacy and plenty of room for a vegetable garden, pool and much more. Enjoy the hot tub, or settle onto the front porch with a good book or take a summer nap--the perfect place to leave the workweek behind. Approximately 25 minutes to Hudson's Amtrak station and 30 minutes to Albany International Airport, with Windham, Hunter Mountain, golf and the Hudson Valley and Catskills within easy reach.
