Winter Hill - one of the most unique homes in the Hudson Valley, an unparalleled wedding of 19th and 21st century craftsmanship. Set at the end of a winding drive, on twenty serene, stone wall bordered, country acres - this is an entertainer's dream retreat.
Perched in the verdant highlands along the Hudson River, the fields and rolling hills of this home are just minutes to the shore.
A famous local home built in 1883 for a prominent citizen Winter Hill is a preeminent example of the Tudor Revival style. Gorgeous on the approaching drive, it is truly breathtaking when reached. Park under the porte-cochere and enter the building through the expansive wrap-around porch.
The first hint of the countless updates that have been made at this property. When you first enter the foyer through the original double doors, you will find an electronic entrance system and a new, artful, modern wall. We look out to the deep wrap-around porch with well designed exterior lighting.
The formal living room, centered around a dramatic wood-burning fireplace, is the first thing to greet you upon entering the home. The original wood floors are solid and comfortable under foot.
With a stunning, contemporary glass chandelier and walls of original windows and French doors, the expansive living room is a warm heart to the home.
A closer look at the restored original 1800's doors, which open out to the large slate porch and patio beyond. Light shines off of the original hardwood floors.
The front parlor is also a perfect den or library and is just off of the living room, but can easily be closed off by original smooth gliding double pocket doors.
This room has its own fireplace and plenty of space for seating. Restored stained glass windows over new, energy efficient ones perfectly capture the meeting of original craftsmanship and modern building materials.
This cozy, bright bay window seat is an amazing spot to laze and read. The stained glass detail on the windows of the tower, which continues up to the second floor, are illuminated by the beautiful globe fixture.
The expansive dining room (used now as a conference area) is open to the living room. Clearly, there is ample space for large dinner parties! Sliding doors here as well can close this space off.
At the head of the dining room is another dramatic fireplace, with original tile. It is surrounded by intricate woodwork on the mantel and pilasters. Notice the intricate metal work for the firewood cabinets.
Just next door from the dining room is the chef's kitchen. The view out from the windows is gorgeous and calming, and the stainless appliances and counters make meal preparation here a dream - and cleaning up afterward easy!
Four beautiful, matching glass fixtures cast warm light down. There is also convenient under-cabinet lighting here. There is ample cabinet space and the five burner stove can handle any recipe. Underfoot, the ceramic tile floor is easy to clean.
The double oven/microwave and bonus prep sink are musts for the serious cook. What will be the first meal that you prepare here?
Behind the dining room is this massively convenient office space or library. Work from home takes on a somewhat different meaning when you can have a true, state of the art office with a nearby second entrance, just down the hall from your kitchen. An entire staff can work here, separate from the rest of the home. Just don't put your desk in front of the central window. The views of your grounds will be too distracting!
The detail on the molding throughout this room has to be seen in person to be truly appreciated. This level of skill, pride in craftsmanship (and these material), are nearly impossible to come buy today. Where else will you find this? Also in this room is another fireplace.
Now used as an office, this rear room, just next to the bathrooms and a large potential closet, could be a great first floor bedroom. With two exposures to the private, tree ensconced rear yard, this would be a quiet and private retreat.
One of two first floor half bathrooms, this sleek, architect designed bathroom is something of a work of art. It feels like you are stepping into a museum installation when you enter this room.
The full size, four floor elevator is an amazing amenity. Whether accessibility is an issue now, or a thought for later, this elevator allows traveling from floor to floor in the home a quick breeze. It also means that moving furniture and doing chores is so much easier.
Off of the central hall and across from the formal living room, the staircase to the second floor is a true hand hewn work of art. Designed specifically for the original owner, Rev. Walter Thompson, the staircase is a one-of-a kind original.
Walls of windows, with the leaded glass design preserved so well here, as throughout the rest of the home, welcome natural light to pour in and allows residents views of the beautiful, natural landscape beyond. There is a built-in bench on the other side of this staircase which would be another great reading nook.
On the second floor, this large and open room has been virtually staged as a sitting room or library. Like so many other rooms in this house, it's centered on a unique fireplace with original tile work. From the windows, there are panoramic views out to the Hudson River Valley.
Is there some other way that you would use this room?
To the left of the sitting room is the possible first bedroom on this floor. Virtually staged, this expansive, bright room has ample space for a bed, seating area and entertainment nook. There is a closet on the left.
The room is large enough to divide if necessary. Oportunites abound!
This private rear corner room has beautiful views through the oversized, double-hung windows out to the established trees surrounding the home.
While staged as a comfortable family room, this expansive space could also easily be a primary bedroom. With some of the best views in the house, and the extension of the tower bay windows from the parlor below, this is a particularly striking room. Through the doorway on the right is a second room, perfect for a walk-in closet or, potentially, an attached bathroom.
This room could make for an amazing walk-in closet or, with renovations, an en-suite bath.
This is one of two half bathrooms on the second floor. The thoughtful updates are evident throughout this space.
Up to the third floor, this large and bright room could serves as another excellent bedroom. It could also be a craft room, home office, or more. As throughout the rest of the home, an intricately designed lighting system keeps the space cheerful.
On the other side of the large upper level, another great space for a bedroom. This cozy room overlooks the front of the home.
One of two bonus rooms on the upper level. How would you use this space?
This lower level room has its own walkout to the side yard and a nearby shower. This would be perfect as a home gym, studio space, playroom and more!
Also on the lower level, with large windows and an airy feeling, this would be a wonderful media room.
The deep and wide slate front porch is an entertainer's dream. After dinner, the party can move out to this covered space. Pick any of the many seating areas that overlook the grounds and watch as the sun sets over the highlands in the distance.
Whether you are entertaining a hundred or simply yourself, this is a striking place to relax as the park-like grounds unfold below.
Sprawling fields below and picnic areas atop the rolling hills of the property greet you at the edge of the front patio. The possibilities for gardens here are endless.
This home has parking unlike any other you will find. The well lit parking lot allows for around forty cars, with additional space elsewhere. Weddings, New Year's Eve parties, graduation celebrations... this is the home for all of your dreams. And if a guest is too tired to leave at night, there is the guest house!
The guest cottage, atop the two car garage, is a perfect spot for both short and long term guests. The staircase on the right leads up to the entrance to the cottage.
The guest cottage has stunning views of its own, out to the grounds of the home and beyond.
The cottage kitchen is a cozy and convenient space. Nearby, there is a full bathroom and a washer/dryer as well.
This is a view of the large shed and the water tower building, which holds an eighteen foot high tower that contains all of the water this home could need. The tower, like every mechanical aspect of this home, has been rigorously designed and built to exceed the highest standard. Between the two buildings is a propane fueled backup generator.
As we start to rise above the home, we can appreciate the craftsmanship of the cedar roof, the beauty of the brick chimneys, and the convenience and safety of the fire escape.
Perched atop the rolling twenty acres of land, this home has stood fast for over one hundred and forty years, through world wars, depressions and times of great triumphs.
Behind the home is conservation land and we can see the beautiful forest encircling the area.
Taken from the driveway, this image captures the expansiveness of the grounds.
Whether you imagine a garden, a tent for events, or even true farming in this space, the open field offers tremendous natural beauty, and boundless potential.
All of this, just minutes to the Garrison train station and the beautiful Hudson River. Seven minutes north, downtown Cold Spring, with its shops and restaurants, will welcome you. The Garrison golf course is just up the road and the entirety of the Hudson River valley is open before you. Come visit this flagship property in the heart of the Highlands. It's time to see Winter Hill.
Pictures alone cannot capture what this property truly offers. Stop by to see the amazing combination of preservation, both of the house's amazing original details and the grounds' natural beauty, and forward thinking restoration that makes this property a one in a million find.

This timeless Tudor Revival in the heart of Garrison is a one-of-a-kind home, perched atop twenty acres of verdant, natural beauty.

This timeless Tudor Revival in the heart of Garrison is a one-of-a-kind home, perched atop twenty acres of verdant, natural beauty. As you enter the property and approach the house on the long, winding drive, open fields flanked by stately trees stretch out to your left. When the house comes into view along the ridge, you begin to enter a different state of mind. Blood pressure drops, worries fade, and you are home. This is the home you have always wanted. A home where you can welcome family and friends. Built in 1883 for Rev. Walter Thompson and restored and modernized for use as an office over the past decade by a team of skilled architects, designers and craftsmen, Winter Hill emerges in full view as you crest the ridge. Park in either the sprawling forty space lot, perfect for entertaining many guests, or under the porte-cochere, connected to the wrap-around porch. Open the double doors and enter the main foyer, with a unique wall design, and find yourself in an elegant living room, centered on a huge wood-burning fireplace. Original details - pocket doors, gleaming hardwood floors and walls of multi-paned windows - are accentuated by the modern glass chandelier. Beyond is the front parlor, with striking bay window seating. Behind, you will find the massive central dining room, with amazing original fireplace details, then a perfect home office space or potential formal library, with its own fireplace. All of these rooms flow together to make an amazing space for entertaining. Imagine friends, family and community gathering here, in your home. Off the central hall, find the the chef's dream kitchen, with beautifully unique light fixtures, stainless appliances, two ovens, a prep sink and abundant counter space. More on this level: a back room that would be a great first floor bedroom, two half baths and a bonus room. Everywhere are open or wooded views. Step out to the covered front porch and slate patio. Here, you'll host drinks in the evening, or simply sit with a cup of tea in the morning, looking over the serene fields. On the second level, arrived at via the convenient, full four-floor elevator, or gorgeous front staircase, opportunity abounds. Currently used as offices, the many large and bright rooms here can be converted into guest bedrooms, family rooms, playrooms and more. Two of the rooms have fireplaces. Other 1800's details, like wood floors and leaded glass windows, are here, as elsewhere. Most rooms have views to the gorgeous grounds. One floor up, find even more bright spaces - bedrooms, guest areas, artist and craft rooms, or wherever your vision takes you. Let’s hop in the elevator and jet down to the lowest level, to discover large spaces that are perfect for home gyms and media rooms. There are huge storage rooms and the new utility systems, including state of the art electrical and a/v rooms. Leaving the basement through the walkout, we exit to the side yard and look out to the fields flowing before us. At the side is the private guest cottage above the two-car garage. This cottage has views of its own, a kitchen and full bathroom. This is a perfect spot for your guests, or extended family. Nearby, the large water tower ensures never running out of fresh water. From here, we can see the property at a different angle. The home’s cedar shingle siding and roof, with stately brick chimneys, rises before us. To our right, protected land, to our left the park-like land and rolling hills stretching out to the tree line, almost as far as you can see. All of this, just minutes to the train and the heart of Cold Spring. Come, visit Winter Hill and join its living story.
