Description

Welcome to Farview -one of the finest examples of the Neo-Gothic style of architecture in the Hudson Valley. Designed and built by renowned architect, A.J. Downing in 1848, this solid brick mansion sits on the highest point of the historic Van Loon family lands. Sited up a long drive off Route 385 in Athens, the gracious home is centered on 3.2 private acres and is sandwiched between the Hudson River and the beautiful Sleepy Hollow Lake. The six bedroom / six bathroom home offers four floors of living space including grand proportions on the first floor - ideal for entertaining. The flexible layout also has multiple entry points delineating sections of the home (including the entire 4th floor) for easy investment / rental opportunity. Light streams in from the floor-to-ceiling windows on the main floor, which also features an extraordinary, oversized dining room with fireplace. While Farview is completely independent with its own private driveway, it does have Sleepy Hollow Lake's sewer and water services as well as full membership to their numerous recreational amenities. These include lake/beach access, two pools, tennis, pickle-ball and clubhouse. Across the street and through the Scenic Hudson's Forever Wild Nature Preserve is a Hudson River kayak & boat launch. The Catskill Mountain ski resorts of Windham and Hunter Mountain are 30 minutes away and Amtrak and the town of Hudson are only15 minutes from Farview.Whether you are searching for a historic home, weekend compound or an investment property with unlimited possibilities, Farview's location, historic uniqueness and year-round activities make this the perfect home.

    "Greene Co. is in the heart of the Hudson Valley and the Catskills in upstate NY. It is a quiet and scenic area, yet everything you would want is at your back door! PGA grade golf courses, ski resorts, Hudson River boating & fine dining. Athens is a historic & picturesque riverside village, full of civic pride and family oriented. Little league, soccer league, municipal pool, state preserves for hiking, & a dog park to name a few! As a bonus, the capital city of Albany is 30 minutes drive away. Also close to Amtrak Station, NYS Thruway & 2 hr drive from NYC! Have all you ever wanted or longed for here! "

    "Athens is a quaint, river front village with that small-town flair, yet filled with eclectic cafe's, upscale riverfront restaurants, cultural center & wonderfully equipped play grounds with river views. Marinas, outdoor summer concerts, & close to the Capital Region night life, Amtrack, ski resorts & PGA rated golf courses. The best of both worlds !"

    "Athens is a quaint and beautiful river front village with many well kept and restored historic homes. Civic pride is alive and well, as the village is clean, well kept and has attracted several eclectic and upscale restaurants, and hosts weekly concerts in the park all summer. Athens exudes that "Norman Rockwell" small town charm. There are several play parks as well as a one acre dog-park and ball fields for the little league. Centrally located, Athens is a 30 mile jaunt to the capital region in Albany, or just 10 miles to the Historic City of Hudson and the railway with direct Commute to NYC. Additionally, Athens is located within easy access to the NY State thruway. Athens is located within Greene Co, where there are 2 large ski resorts and PGA grade golf courses. Greene County has many cultural and civic events in all of its' towns, giving the whole county a "small town feel." To top it off, the majestic Catskill mountain range stands as a back-drop to beautiful rural scenery."
