Back in the early 1980s, the Pine Bush and the surrounding areas in Orange County were the sites of some of the best known UFO sightings in New York State. In fact, so prolific were the sightings that every spring, the village celebrates its unusual claim to fame with a UFO Festival. Author Whitley Schrieber’s account of alien encounters outlined in his book Communion is perhaps the most famous of the Pine Bush sightings, which, according to Schrieber, took place at his home located nearby. While reports of sightings have dropped off in recent years, there are many who still claim that Pine Bush, and the Hudson Valley in general, is a hotbed for glimpsing UFOs mid-flight. If it’s true, maybe you can catch your own glimpse from this 18th century carriage house on 2 acres 10 minutes from Pine Bush. For around $91/square foot, the house includes 4 beds/2 baths, over 2100 square feet, and an additional steel-sided workshop on the property. Is it an out-of-this-world bargain? Perhaps, and the extra land behind the house should provide plenty of landing space for the mothership when it comes…and it will.
