The Edward Herrington House, circa 1886 - 1898 is one of the historic homes in the
charming hamlet of Hillsdale, New York. A multi-century-old sugar maple greets you as
you enter this quaint Hamlet Historic District home. This spacious 3-bedroom, 1.5 bathroom heritage residence takes you back in time with its many original details while
providing important updates. Read a book from the built-in library in the sitting room or
gather by the centrally located woodstove on cold winter days, which really does heat
the house, and relax in the peaceful upstairs screened-in sleeping porch in the warmer
months. Enjoy the private fenced backyard with a stone patio, raised garden beds and a
nice-sized shed for storage. Some other amenities include a reverse-osmosis water
filtration system, hardwood floors throughout, built-in cabinets and even a Murphy bed and more.
The location is ideal for those looking for a village home in a rural community.
Right down the road you will find the Harlem Valley Rail Trail and the Roe Jan Brewing
Co., renowned for its wood-fired pub menu and a wide variety of craft beers brewed
onsite. The brewery also sits inside the historic 1851 Hillsdale Mercantile Building.
Check out downtown Hillsdale's local shops, restaurants, farmers markets, parks,
library, antiquing, and the hamlet is only 6 minutes from Catamount's Adventure Park,
which offers year-round attractions including snow skiing, concerts, ropes courses and
the longest zip line in the USA. Tanglewood and the Norman Rockwell Museum are
about 30 minutes away too. Hillsdale sits between the vital waterway of the Hudson
River - the river that flows both ways - and the beautiful ancient rolling hills of the
Berkshire Mountains.
Hillsdale is about 2 hours from New York City and 2.5 hours from Boston. It is equidistance to Hudson, NY, and Great Barrington, MA. The Metro-North train station in Wassaic and the Amtrak station in Hudson make it easy to travel to New York City. Enjoy this vintage homestead with all it has to offer within historic Columbia County, NY, known for its beautiful mix of rural farmland, artsy towns, and nature, and is home to several properties recognized on the National Register of Historic Places.
Come step back in time. It would be our honor to introduce you to the Edward
Herrington House.
