Putnam County c.1830s Farmhouse with a Mountain in the Backyard, $320,000

  |  November 14, 2016

When it comes to western Putnam County, in general, you’re going to have much better luck finding residential properties in the $500,000 listing price range. However, we discovered this hidden farmhouse at the base of Anthony’s Nose in Garrison listed for considerably less than that. Is it a huge house? Heavens, no. But, the location can’t be beat, close to coveted access to public transportation (both Cold Spring and Garrison stations are near this property), the Hudson River, and a picturesque mountain setting with hiking right in the back yard.

The cottage includes 1200 square feet, two bedrooms, 1.5 baths, hardwood floors, built-in shelves to save space, wood stove, and tile floors in the kitchen. Plus, the lot size is nearly an acre in size, and the property taxes are less than $6500/year. That’s a real rarity in these parts, so we suspect this house may not be on the market for long.

Located less than an hour from NYC.
