Blue Hilltop Hudson Farmhouse

Our Hudson farmhouse – nestled on 10 acres on a hilltop overlooking the Catskill mountains – is a peaceful retreat, secluded in the countryside yet minutes away from Hudson’s popular restaurants, antique stores and art galleries. Enjoy the Hudson Valley’s hiking trails, orchards and ski slopes, or relax by the pool or in front of the fireplace. The house has been featured in Vogue Living AU and New York Magazine, with interior design and custom furniture pieces by renowned architect Léon Krier.
