Esopus Hudson River-front Farmhouse, $800,000

Not only is this a lovely 1872 farmhouse, it’s right on the waterfront. We particularly like the big sunroom with giant windows that look out onto the river. At around $389/square foot, you’re definitely paying for the land (4.3 acres’ worth) and the views, not to mention the backyard slip to park your new fabulous boat. And the taxes are pure insanity at $19,454.

Thanks to Google Street View, we can tell that there’s an additional structure on the property (a small one, so we’re thinking either a garden shed or a children’s play house) with a greenhouse attached to it. It’s located right on River Road, but it’s a quiet street heading down to the water with lots of other nicely-appointed houses on it. Gorgeous house, gorgeous area. Pretty property inside and out.
