About this home
Perched above the meeting point of Fishkill Creek and the Hudson River, this home offers unobstructed sightlines that stretch all the way to the mountains of Cornwall. Sunsets are vibrant, nights sparkle—this is one of the most breathtaking vistas in Beacon.
Originally built in 1920 and cherished by the same family for a century, this extraordinary home was completely reimagined in 2021–2022. Design-forward updates blend with the original craftsmanship and salvaged materials—including bricks from the historic Denning’s Point Brickworks, now inlaid throughout the custom brickwork on all three floors. The renovation honors the home’s heritage while introducing bold, contemporary style. Add the cinematic views, and you’ve got a one-of-a-kind property with deep roots and a renewed spirit.
While the original center hall Colonial footprint remains intact, the home has been fully transformed for modern living. A striking glass-walled addition maximizes light and views, while connecting the house to a heated garage via breezeway. The main level offers a bright, open kitchen anchored by a dramatic tiered island, a spacious living/dining area with a modern inset fireplace, and a guest bedroom with an en suite bath. A powder room featuring a custom metal vanity completes the floor.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a showstopper: vaulted ceilings, a spa-like en suite bath, walk-in designer closet, and private deck with unmatched Hudson Valley views. A second large bedroom with en suite bath and soaking tub, along with a hallway beverage bar, add comfort and luxury.
The lower level— reengineered with a lowered foundation—adds flexibility. Included is a second kitchen/bar, office or den with custom French doors, a full bathroom, mudroom/laundry with built-ins, and generous storage throughout.
Outside, the property continues to impress. A fully renovated historic barn includes a vaulted ceiling, kitchenette, full bath, and private deck—ideal for hosting guests or exploring short-term rental possibilities. Below the barn is a workshop, and beneath the garage, a climate-controlled studio space offers potential for a home gym, office, or artist’s studio..
Set on a beautifully landscaped lot with custom pavers and thoughtful outdoor areas, this home is just under a mile from Main Street, and minutes to the Beacon Greenway, Madam Brett Park, and the Metro-North station. Beacon is a dynamic and vibrant community with something for everyone. Outdoor enthusiasts can hike Mount Beacon or stroll along the Hudson River, while art lovers can immerse themselves in the local art scene. Savor delicious meals at local favorites like Kitchen and Coffee, The Roundhouse and Lyonshare and experience the unique blend of small-town charm and vibrant culture that Beacon is known for. Not only is Beacon the perfect launch pad to so many great towns in the Hudson Valley, it is located just 60 miles north of the George Washington Bridge.
