Property Description
Creative compound, multi-generational living, or personal retreat — you decide! Welcome to a truly extraordinary historic estate in the heart of Accord, one of the most sought after hamlets in the Hudson Valley. Beyond the gates, a sense of tranquility envelops you as you approach the meticulously restored and expanded 1815 stone home, surrounded by rolling hills, ponds, and the forest’s edge. Privacy and modern amenities are both rarely found with homes of this vintage, as fans of the region’s iconic stone homes know too well. The compound is a true testament to the commitment of the current owner and their team of artisans who spent two years breathing new life into this remarkable property. The main house, a masterpiece in itself, greets you with a grand entryway featuring a 10' high cupola that draws your gaze upward to the custom metalwork staircase while bathing the space in natural light. The sunlit kitchen is a chef's dream, boasting picture windows on three sides, Sub-Zero appliances, a 6-range dual-fuel ILVE stove, Wolf drawer microwave, wine fridge, and a custom underlit countertop. This natural gathering space has ample room for a large dining table, a balcony that’s perfect for grilling, and access to the large bluestone patio. The details are endless, 12” face, White Oak floors (hand-picked felled trees) to imported Moroccan brass, vintage Noguchi light fixtures and Venetian plaster on the walls. The first floor also hosts a full bath adorned in handmade Zia tiles and a cozy guest bedroom. Upstairs, you’ll discover the remarkably bright and expansive 1000 sq feet primary suite with its bucolic views, spa-like bathroom with soaking tub and radiant floors, vintage Scandinavian fixtures, and reclaimed chestnut beams from a 19th-century church. A library/studio on the landing plus another bedroom finishes this level. The lower level is designed for entertainment, featuring two large living spaces with a wood-burning fireplace, cozy den with exposed stone walls, a very romantic bathroom with clawfoot tub, and polished concrete floors with radiant heat. The two cottages are true show stoppers, with high-end finishes including white-washed solid hickory floors, imported Zia tiles, vintage lighting fixtures, and custom metalwork. Each cottage is equipped with a full kitchen and washer/dryer. One cottage boasts a private bluestone patio with outdoor shower, while the other features an early 20th-century stained glass windows in the lofted bedroom and living space. These buildings are totally flexible: equally suitable for hosting guests, creating your perfect work from home haven, or housing staff. The barn, with its vaulted ceilings, could not be a more iconic spot to entertain. The building has been almost entirely rebuilt, exposing original woodwork and adding new details like reclaimed mid-century sliding doors which open to the bluestone firepit area. A newly poured concrete floor with radiant heat makes it a versatile space for large gatherings in three-plus seasons, and an unfinished two-story area with a separate entrance would be ideal for a music, yoga, or art studio. There is currently a two-car garage and a separate area stands ready to build out a much larger garage. Wander the estate, past the babbling creek to the spring-fed pond, and the thoughtful landscaping with borders created from on-site bluestone. Every detail has been perfected, creating a harmonious connection between the land and the structures. Located minutes from INNESS, this property offers proximity to golf, tennis, pools, and seven-day-a-week dining with stunning Catskills views (plus a luxurious spa coming this spring). Explore nearby attractions such as Minnewaska State Park, Mohonk Preserve, Westwind Orchard, Saunderskill Farm, Arrowood Farms, Accord Market, Mill & Main, and more. This estate is a masterpiece of history, craftsmanship, and natural beauty awaiting your presence.

HUD Foreclosures

HUD foreclosures and VA Foreclosures are some of the best homes to buy when price is part of the equation. As with most Americans, price is always a concern. If not buying the same house for less, why not buy more house for the same dollar invested? When looking for a good deal it is hard to do better than the VA or HUD foreclosures market. The simple truth is that there are just more VA and HUD homes on the market, as they represent such a large number of mortgages that are generated each year. This translates into more foreclosures just by the magnitude of difference between all others comparing to the two largest. The two largest also being government owned and operated means that they have less time to wait to make money back on the home. The FHA is especially known for selling HUD homes for less than the average sales price in a given area. FHA foreclosures represent a fraction of HUD but they are still a significant number of homes and both should be considered. VA (Veterans Administration) and HUD (Housing and Urban Development) have different and unique opportunities for the buyer. Both are often forgiven for the local taxes normally associated with the purchase of a home (this is on a county by county basis). Be sure to ask the local title company or escrow company to look into it for you before closing as this is often missed due to their are not used to dealing with the 2 to 3 percent of the market that VA and HUD foreclosures represent.

Foreclosure Listings Increasing

As the market settled after the mortgage meltdown foreclosure listings also settled and fewer homes were on the market with a placard reading “Bank Foreclosure” in big red lettering. This was a good thing for the entire real estate market. Having an abundance of foreclosures brings the entire market down and it makes it harder for home owners, who would like to move, to get the appropriate price for their home as a similar home down the same street was sold for substantially less and the appraiser is using the foreclosure as a comparable sale. This is just one of the problems when there are too many foreclosure listings in any area. Another issue is the television set that sits in everyone’s living room harping about the price of homes based on the number of foreclosures and this constant barrage of negative information makes most people sit on the sidelines waiting for the market to either implode completely or to correct itself. Meanwhile while they wait, others are buying foreclosure listings and making great investments. Whatever the reason, a market can only handle so many foreclosure listings at any given time. The more foreclosures, the lower the market gets and this is a lesson the banks that were foreclosing and selling off realized too late. The market and their investments would have been better off if there had not been a rush to divest themselves of the toxic assets made more toxic by their own actions.
