luxury houses for sale Putnam County, United States

Set upon a private rise within the Hudson Highlands, Evarts Hill is a restored 1929 French Normandy style estate distinguished by its provenance, craftsmanship, and natural and formal landscapes. Encompassing 53.65 acres and bordered by conserved lands of the Hudson Highlands Land Trust, the property offers exceptional privacy and an unspoiled natural setting just 50 miles from New York City. The setting preserves the integrity of one of Garrison's last original country estates. The estate was held by a single family for generations before its recent renewal. The main residence, a stone-and-stucco chateau with a slate roof, draws inspiration from rural Normandy and the Loire Valley. Designed with restraint and classic proportions, it combines formal architecture with a sense of intimacy, and ease suited to its surroundings. A three-story rotunda anchors the interior and introduces a classic curved staircase that rises through the center of the home. The floor plan unfolds in a balanced sequence of rooms. Grand entertaining spaces are complemented by more intimate private rooms. Approximately 6,200 square feet, which includes six bedrooms/five baths, and one half bath. Original features—deep-set windows, sleeping porches, and period millwork—remain intact, supported by a full restoration completed in 2018. Modern systems include radiant heating, central climate control, fiber-optic connectivity, and discreet security integration. The estate comprises a series of interconnected structures and landscapes. A converted carriage house of approximately 4,000 square feet serves as a guest residence, offering five bedrooms/bathrooms, a garage, and an artist's studio marked by a distinctive tower element. Outdoor areas include a gunite pool surrounded by stone terraces, established gardens, a parterred rose garden, and an open lawn. A separate Billiards Lodge with a large stone fireplace offers a private retreat. Evarts Hill represents a rare continuity of architecture, land, and history. It is an early-20th-century Hudson Highlands estate reimagined for modern living, set amid lasting beauty and privacy.

Rustic cabin with private dock located on a small private lake. Enjoy peace and tranquility from your deck while you take in the best nature has to offer in this 2 bedroom cabin with direct waterfront access. This property is a private co-op owning 110 acres in Putnam County with a large lake surrounded by 28 cabins concealed from the lake by trees and plantings. Shareholders hold leases to their cabins. The lake is motor-free and offers swimming, fishing and (non-motor) boating. The cabin is seasonal since the community water is turned off from approximately the middle of October until the middle of April thus making it the perfect three-season get away. The community is careful to preserve the quiet and historic nature of this special place. The cabins were built starting in the 1920's and the ability to make changes to their exterior, size, structure and concealment is greatly restricted in order to preserve their rustic character. Likewise, the community considers itself the steward of the lake and the surrounding wooded landscape. Financing is not permitted. Final sale is dependent upon co-op Board approval of prospective buyers. Please note there is no toilet in the cabin, only an outhouse.
