About this home
There are homes you admire, and then there are homes you admire and carry them with you for years...the kind you pass countless times and quietly wonder about. Who lived there? What the lives looked like within those walls? What celebrations filled the rooms? What stories unfolded beside the fireplaces on winter evenings? Which generation planted the trees, walked the fields, gathered around the long kitchen table, or watched the seasons roll across the ridge from the same windows that remain today?
652 Albany Post Road is just that kind of home.
Sited on 39 remarkable acres, beneath the Shawangunk Ridge, this c.1800 brick and stone Colonial, with its earlier stone wing, stands as one of Gardiner's most enduring historic presences. Timeless and deeply rooted in place, the home feels less like a property and more like a living piece of Hudson Valley history.
Inside, centuries of craftsmanship remain beautifully intact. Wide plank floors worn smooth with time, hand-hewn beams, original millwork, deep-set windows, Dutch doors, built-ins, and multiple fireplaces create interiors rich with warmth, texture, and memories. The oldest stone portion of the home centers around an extraordinary hearth kitchen where exposed masonry, dark timber beams, and the original fireplace evoke another era entirely, a room that feels made for lingering conversations, candlelight, and generations gathered together.
The elegant brick and stone Colonial section offers gracious proportions and beautifully scaled rooms filled with soft natural light. Arched openings, antique mantels, and expansive living spaces create an atmosphere which feels both stately and deeply personal. A first-floor bedroom and full bath provide flexibility for guests or even potential single-level living. The upstairs bedrooms feel peaceful, private, and suspended back in time.
Outside, the landscape unfolds into rolling lawns, meadows, mature trees, and some wooded acreage, with sweeping views toward the ridge of the 'Gunks'. The setting is quintessential Gardiner: pastoral, protected, and impossibly serene.
What makes this property extraordinary is not perfection or trend-driven renovation. It is authenticity and history. It gives you the feeling that it has been lived in, loved deeply, and carefully carried forward for more than two centuries.
A rare opportunity here to become the next steward of one of the Hudson Valley's truly unforgettable, iconic homes....
