Welcome to Kanso Cottage Estate, a historic Hudson Valley retreat with roots stretching back to the late 1800s. Once part of a boys' camp and originally built by Dutch settlers, this park-like 16-acre estate includes three dwellings-the stone main house, a stone guest cottage, and a green guest cabin-along with additional structures including a pool house with outdoor shower and a potting shed. At the heart of the property is the stone main house, where wide-plank floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and sunlit dining room create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The dining room opens onto a private pea stone courtyard, and the kitchen is outfitted with a Bertazzoni gas range, stone counters, and new appliances. Upstairs, the primary suite opens onto a private balcony and features a newly renovated bath with dual sinks and a walk-in shower. Two additional guest dwellings extend the property's charm. The stone cottage includes a fireplace, electric heat, and cedar deck overlooking a magnificent 200-year-old oak tree. A short stroll beyond, a green cabin offers a kitchenette, full bath, and open living/sleeping quarters anchored by a wood stove and pine floors and illuminated by a skylight. Outdoors, the property unfolds like a storybook. A heated gunite pool with its own heated pool house and outdoor shower is surrounded by flowering gardens and newly planted apple and cherry trees. A half basketball court, vegetable garden, and hidden paths winding past century-old oaks and a stream that traces the edge of the property offer endless opportunities for recreation and exploration. Located on a quiet country road just 15 minutes from Hudson and Amtrak, Kanso Cottage Estate offers the best of both worlds: total privacy and the ability to immerse yourself in Hudson's dining, art, and cultural scene. Currently a successful short-term rental, the property offers new owners the flexibility to continue its income-producing potential, enjoy it as a private compound, or both.
