Ready for life north of NYC? This cute, country 2BD bungalow is located 10 minutes outside of the charming village of Cold Spring, with Metro North service to Grand Central, as well as a Main Street chock full of cafes, restaurants and unique shops. The property backs up to Fahnestock State Park, you can literally hike right out the back yard. The house is one level with a wood burning stove, in-house laundry and generator. The outdoors have so much to offer with a seasonal creek, fenced-in garden area and eventual use of a chicken coop. Enjoy the slower pace of the Hudson Valley, bask in nature and quiet evenings out back by the fire pit, this is an idyllic place to call home.

We (the owners) lived in (and loved!) this cozy home, and outgrew it with our growing family. We now live nearby, but still teach/work in the studio (separate building) out back. The backyard and driveway will be shared.

2 bed/ 1 bath plus an office. The bathroom and office are newly renovated. The front porch has 5 steps up, and there is also a slight incline w/ steps from the driveway to reach the house. The backyard is fenced and there's a playset. There's a wood burning stove in the living room that is VERY cozy. Right now there's a baby gate around it that we can take down if not needed. The house is not furnished. It's about an 8-10 minute drive to the Village of Cold Spring/the train station, and about a 10 minute drive to Fishkill where you'll find grocery, hardware, gym, etc. It's on .7 acres, and backs up to a state park with direct access to a private hiking trail. If you are a creative person looking for a serene woodland setting to get some focused work done... this might be the perfect spot for you. :)

About This Lister

I am a musician and music teacher, as is my husband. (We met teaching music together in Brooklyn, NY!). This home was our starter home and we are so excited to offer it up to rent as it is a very special home and piece of land. We have two young kids, a dog and chickens. One of us will be showing the space along with our agent. We will be the contact person for the tenants, and my husband is our fix-it-person.

Lister's Relationship to the Space

We own it / Landlord

Rental requirements

First month's rent and one month security deposit. $20 background check required. 1 year lease at least, but we would also ask you to consider a 1.5 yr lease so the turnover would be in the summer months when it's easier to move. :)

Pets Policy

One well trained dog is ok. Your dog must be kept in-doors while students are passing through the backyard. Thank you! (We might consider a cat but had a bad experience cat sitting, so let's talk..!)
