Overview
Description
Burroughs Hill began as a hunting cabin and was expanded in the 1940s by an architect and sculptor who added the great room and basement. Over the past decade, it has been thoughtfully renovated, preserving its original character while adding modern comfort and functionality. Perched above the Hudson with sweeping river views, the home offers 4 bedrooms, 4 full baths, and a flexible room that works well as a home office, study, or creative space. Expansive windows and skylights fill the interiors with natural light, while original details from the early 1900s give Burroughs Hill a warm, layered feel. The layout balances open living spaces with cozy private corners. A spacious great room with soaring ceilings flows into a kitchen featuring a Viking electric stove, custom cabinetry, and an island bar. A screened porch offers a quiet spot to take in the panoramic river views. The main level also includes a library and an ensuite bedroom, ideal for guests or flexible living. Upstairs, a skylit room, 2 full baths, an ensuite primary bedroom with Hudson River views and a walk-in closet, and two additional bedrooms were added during the renovation, along with a new main staircase and mudroom. Custom built-ins, hidden storage throughout, and a dedicated indoor gardening alcove add both function and charm. Two separate HVAC systems allow for flexible climate control: radiator heat serves the great room and bedrooms with individual room controls. Outside, hand-built stone walls, winding pathways, and thoughtfully planted gardens create a landscape designed for beauty and ease. Just 90 minutes from New York City, Burroughs Hill is ideal for a weekend retreat or full-time living.
