About this home
Welcome to Wolverton Creative Compound, a storied 119-acre estate set within a hidden valley offering complete seclusion, integrated creative workspaces, and timeless beauty. The original 1830s farmhouse is tucked away at the end of a private lane in Claverack, NY, where the road terminates in a round gravel driveway anchored by the property's original stone well. Two large ponds grace the land, including an aerated, swimmable pond directly in front of the house. Sited among meadows and mature woodlands, the main house, upgraded studio barn, and charming studio shed are framed by terraced stonework, a network of trails, and thoughtfully designed gardens. The setting is peaceful, restorative, and deeply connected to the land, yet only a short drive to both Hudson and Great Barrington.
The antique farmhouse offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms across 2,825 square feet, where original details like moldings, wood floors, and Dutch doors preserve its old-world charm. A generous double living room and a Vitsoe-outfitted studio lead to a bright dining area and kitchen, each with direct access to patios and gardens. The layout supports an easy indoor-outdoor rhythm, with covered porches and multiple terraces for lounging, cooking, or gathering. Two staircases rise to the upper-level bedrooms, where southern exposure fills each room with light, and the insulated attic improves year-round comfort. Throughout the home, an intentional color palette lends softness and cohesion. The design brings together European sensibility and Hudson Valley character, creating a live-work compound that balances utility with ease, warmth, and quiet sophistication.
Across the garden sits a fully insulated 1,900-square-foot historic barn transformed into a large-scale creative studio, complete with bathroom and clawfoot tub, kitchenette, updated electrical, and HVAC. The studio is wired for photography, cinematography, sound, editing, and workshop use, with fiber-optic service and an underground data connection linking house and studio. The compound has a full HUE lighting system with states created by a film lighting designer. A detached potting shed offers another versatile space, ideal as a garden studio, writer's nook, or future guest cottage, and connects to an outdoor bath deck that invites restorative soaks beneath the stars with its fireplace, clawfoot tub, and outdoor shower. A carport at the barn with EV charging and a full-property generator ensure comfort and continuity year-round, whether for everyday living or on-site production. A whole-house water filtration system adds another layer of comfort.
The primary pond is the centerpiece of the property. This aerated, swimmable pond, bordered by a pebble beach and firepit, is ideal for swimming or evening gatherings after a day in the studio. Terraced gardens by The Secret Gardener surround the home with a cottage-style blend of flowering plants, herbs, and vegetables. Rewilded fields and meadows lead to two miles of maintained trails through native grasses and towering trees. The land qualifies for a forestry exemption and includes multiple cleared areas, offering potential for a guest house, additional studios, horses, or even a helipad. Whether hosting music on the lawn, staging a shoot, convening a creative team, or watching the changing sky reflect in the pond, Wolverton Creative Compound is a rare legacy estate and true sanctuary for creative work and retreat....
