1091 Albany Post Road is the kind of property people imagine when they dream about the Hudson Valley — expansive skies, river frontage, mountain views, and a home that feels both refined and deeply connected to the land.
This offering represents a newly created private estate parcel. The seller will subdivide the original 78.68-acre property to convey the primary residence, a fully finished detached cottage, and approximately 5 acres surrounding the fenced grounds and rear of the home. The remaining acreage will be retained by the owner, ensuring the integrity of the landscape while creating an exclusive, manageable estate footprint.
The residence itself is a masterclass in restoration. Classic Cape architecture meets modern precision, resulting in a home that feels crisp, timeless, and intentional in every detail. Sunlight spills across wide oak floors, while exposed beams and a statement brick fireplace create a natural focal point in the main living space. The layout flows effortlessly — open enough for entertaining, yet defined enough to preserve warmth and intimacy.
The kitchen is sleek and functional, anchored by premium appliances and clean-lined cabinetry, designed for serious cooking as much as casual gathering. Three generous bedrooms provide peaceful private quarters, while five beautifully finished tiled baths elevate everyday living into something indulgent. A formal dining space offers a setting worthy of long dinners and celebration.
The outdoor experience rivals the interior. A circular paved drive winds through custom iron fencing to a setting that feels secluded and cinematic. Hardy board siding and Azek trim give the home a sharp architectural presence while ensuring longevity. Behind the main residence, the finished cottage offers flexibility rarely found — ideal as guest accommodations, a creative studio, executive office, or caretaker residence.
The grounds are designed to be lived in. A 30 x 40 concrete patio and 10 x 30 pergola anchor the outdoor entertaining area, centered around a masonry fire feature built for year-round enjoyment. Beyond the fenced lawn, the landscape opens into rolling meadow and wooded edges that stretch toward the Wallkill River, offering more than 1,600 feet of waterfront and uninterrupted views of the Shawangunk ridge.
Though the setting feels remote, convenience remains close at hand. Gardiner’s village charm, New Paltz dining and culture, and the Hudson Valley’s outdoor recreation scene are all minutes away.
This is not simply a home purchase — it is the acquisition of a curated Hudson Valley retreat, designed for those who want beauty, privacy, and architectural integrity in equal measure.
