The riverfront village of Athens in Greene County is completely worth the 10 minutes it takes to get to it from the NYS Thruway. It’s a gorgeous, historic town that’s peaceful and jammed-packed with real estate eye-candy like this c.1880 Queen Anne Victorian. The house is located a few steps from the Hudson River and rubs elbows with more real estate eye-candy in a tree-lined residential neighborhood. Like mermaid frescos on the ceiling, plank floors under your feet, and a million-and-one ornate architectural details that you’ll continue to discover the longer you live here? Then this gem might be for you. We’re simply nuts about the slate roof shingles, pocket doors, and all the natural light allowed inside. To get here, take exit 21 off the I-87 Thruway, hop onto Route 385, and head into the village. You’re almost home already.
