A Hudson Home with Period Details: $610K

  |  August 26, 2024

The city of Hudson has evolved quite a bit since its humble, post-Revolutionary whaling days. Now, its streets bustle with high-end arts and restaurants.

Today’s pick is off the main drag, yet still within city limits—a feat nowadays, since a lot of listings outside Hudson bill themselves as within the boundary (probably due to mailing-address reasons). Located on a one-way street, the house was built in 1927 and retains some vintage details. The exterior has its charms, from the bluestone steps to the front porch that juts from one corner.

The interior oozes traditional vibes. The foyer has an old-fashioned mail slot and a leaded-glass closet door.

The living room is painted a warm yellow that makes the brick fireplace pop.

Stairs to the second level hide behind a French door. The hall to the right has a built-in set of drawers and cupboards.

The dining room is just the right size for a four-seater dining table. Its decor matches that of the living room.

Check out that vintage telephone nook, complete with an O.G. telephone.

The kitchen has been renovated since it was first built; it has granite counters, a wine rack, and black appliances. A door leads to the backyard.

A crackled-glass pendant hangs over the breakfast nook table.

This first-floor primary bedroom is directly off the kitchen. It has mossy green walls with white trim, and a French door…

…to a wood-clad den/sunroom.

The main-floor bath has marble flooring and a glass-walled shower lined with mosaic tile.

The stairwell is thickly papered in a floral print that continues through the second-floor hallway.

Another built-in cupboard/drawer set is perfect for linens.

This bedroom is just big enough for a bed, desk, dresser, and nightstand. The bedroom and closet doors each have original trim and a glass doorknob.

This bathroom has good bones, like the blue tile, tall trim above the window, and the enclosed tub/shower. The flooring could use an update.

This bedroom is large and has a closet and rich hardwood flooring.

The rear part of the house comprises a small back porch, a bay window, and an additional door.

The property is just over a tenth of an acre, and includes a bluestone patio and a two-car garage. The house measures 1,917 square feet; a lot of the furnishings are available for sale separately if the new owner would like them.

The house is close to downtown Hudson and just a tenth of a mile from Scali’s Pizza & Pasta. If this Hudson home with period details hits your heart, find out more about 19 Aitken Avenue, Hudson, from Barbara Robinson with Red Apple Realty.
