About this home
Historic Federal-Era Village Home in Picturesque Rensselaerville
Nestled within the expansive Hyuck Nature Preserve, Rensselaerville is a pristine White Pine village dating to circa 1820, renowned for its stunning historic homes and natural beauty. The Preserve offers miles of managed trails, a breathtaking 300-foot waterfall (plus a hidden cascade), and exclusive summer swimming and boating memberships for residents—with lifeguards and lessons for children. Its ecological research center hosts seasonal nature programs, focusing on local flora, wildlife, and aquatic life.
The vibrant village community centers around Conkling Hall, a cultural hub for music, theater, yoga, and Pilates. Nearby, the village boasts a community food store, restaurant, library, and year-round events and galas that celebrate local arts and fellowship. Since the pandemic, Rensselaerville has attracted a thriving community of artists and like-minded residents. Surrounded by state nature trails, it’s an ideal destination for hikers, bird watchers, and dog walkers, with supermarkets conveniently located in Greenville and New Scotland.
Set on 11.8 lush acres, this historic home benefits from serene walking trails, streams, and ponds that attract diverse wildlife and birds. The gardens feature abundant perennials, expansive lawns, fragrant honey locust and black walnut trees—creating a tranquil, Eden-like summer retreat. An organic vegetable garden lies just above the house, maintained with sustainable practices.
Built around 1820 during the village’s heyday as a felt-making center powered by nearby waterfalls and white pine forests, this home once served as the town apothecary—digging here has unearthed fascinating relics. Designed to capture natural light throughout the day with classic 8-over-8 mullioned sash windows and double exposures, it was meticulously restored by the historic specialist behind The Thomas Cole House. Original “witches hat” door hardware, period fireplaces, and wide-board white pine floors grace the living rooms, preserving the authentic charm of this exquisite Federal-era residence.
