(First Showings Begin at the Open House on Sat 5/9)

Welcome to the Waterfall House, an exceptional 36.6 acre Hudson Valley compound recently featured in The New York Times (February 2025). Encompassing two distinct residences, dramatic water features, expansive meadows, and refined amenities, this estate is a sanctuary of absolute privacy and uncompromising style.

The main dwelling is a 2,880sf 4BD/3.5BA farmhouse whose origins trace back to the 18th century. The home has been masterfully reimagined by Adam Charlap Hyman (winner of the 2026 Cooper Hewitt National Design Award). His vision honors the historic farmhouse bones while introducing unexpected textures, rich layers, and idiosyncratic objects. The result is an imaginative, joyfully unpolished environment where every room feels deeply connected to the creative spirit of the Hudson Valley.

Inside, original wide plank floors, exquisite period details, and tall multi-paned windows frame sweeping views of the grounds. The chef's kitchen, anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace, features a breakfast nook and an eat-in dining area. It flows seamlessly into a formal dining room designed for effortless entertaining. Step down into the historic wing to find a generously sized, light filled living room, graced with a second wood burning fireplace and a bank of floor-to-ceiling windows that invite the outdoors in. Upstairs, the second floor offers three bedrooms, including a serene primary ensuite, while a private fourth bedroom occupies the third floor.

The property also features a 1,632sf, 2BD/2BA contemporary guest house renovated in 2008. Functioning as a fully independent dwelling that is deal for extended family and guests, it boasts light filled living spaces, a full kitchen, and a wood burning stove. Attached is a newly renovated woodworking shop with radiant heated floors and high end equipment (for purchase separately), built for serious craftsmanship.

Outside, the natural beauty of the estate rivals its interiors. Approached via a private lane that crosses two bridges, the property is defined by the constant, soothing sound of its own private waterfall. Stony Creek meanders through the landscape, offering approximately 2,200 feet of water frontage, an ancient millpond, and a tranquil swimming hole. Multiple paddocks, open fields, and a network of wooded trails provide endless freedom to hike, ride horseback, or simply explore the changing seasons.

Despite its profound seclusion, the Waterfall House is just a 0.7-mile walk or bike ride to the heart of Tivoli. This vibrant river village offers acclaimed farm-to-table dining, boutique shopping, and world class arts at the Kaatsbaan Cultural Park. With Bard College just minutes away and New York City accessible in under two hours via car or the nearby Rhinecliff Amtrak, this compound offers an unparalleled Hudson Valley lifestyle.
