About This Home
As of April 2024Originally a summer house for a local wealthy family, this home is a historic Hudson River landmark . The estate offers privacy at the end of a long drive and is adjacent to over one hundred acres of undeveloped land that is part of the Scenic Hudson Land Trust. Perched on top of a bluff with views of the Hudson River, the Peltz Estate offers an opportunity to sip tea on sleeping porches and watch the ships go by. Located in an area of historic Selkirk called Cedar Hill this home is one of the few remaining of the forgotten mansions that once lined the river. The property is made up of over twenty acres, the former Peltz home, and multiple original outbuildings. Circa 1886 and built in Queen Anne style, Peltz Estate offers charming details, hardwood floors, three fireplaces, dual sleeping porches with haint blue ceilings, and an expansive front porch. All of which are all fine examples of a simpler time of days past. The interior of the home features six bedrooms, three with ensuite bathrooms. Four spacious, remodeled bathrooms and a half bath are located within the home. A large library offers floor to ceiling shelves, large windows, and a cozy gas fireplace. The interior is comfortable and inviting. Tall ceilings are present throughout the home and crown moulding adorns every ceiling. The property includes over twenty acres, two large historic barns, a corn crib, ice house, laundry house which contains a large primitive antique laundry machine that dates to the 19th century, original ice house, antique garage, and carriage houses. A gazebo overlooking a tranquil pond and a courtyard are prime spaces for outdoor relaxation. A three season room offers views from the comforts of inside. Once a working farm, Peltz Estate has the potential to become one once again. The property welcomes equestrian dreams, desires to have a private life, or aspirations of becoming bed and breakfast inn keeper. The hamlet of Selkirk is located fifteen minutes from Albany, thirty minutes from Hudson, and fifteen minutes to the nearest Amtrack station. Selkirk is known for it's rich history, historic homes, and is headquarters for the New York Audubon Society, and Audubon International. Charming villages of Bethlehem, Delmar, and Slingerlands are close by. Farm raised foods and farmers markets are readily available and convenient. Home will be sold fully furnished and move in ready.Please contact Rachel Pitts mobile 843-870-2591 or Jason Loeb 917-579-3394 for further info.
