This 1902 Craftsman home was designed and built by Julian Burroughs, son of famed nature writer John Burroughs. Carefully maintained, restored and updated by their descendants, 5 Riverby Lane is an experience ready to be shared. Step back in time with Craftsman woodwork, architectural details and built-in furnishings while enjoying the modern comforts of the updated kitchen, bathrooms and new mudroom. As detailed in an article Julian wrote in 1906, the house, by design, is cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Energy-efficient windows frame views of the property and open up the living spaces. Looking for roomy and cozy? The expansive living room, with its large original fireplace built with cobblestones from a nearby stream, sets the stage for warm winter gatherings. In milder months, entertain or relax on the rustic screened-in front porch. With a full bathroom on each floor, one first-floor bedroom and three upstairs, there’s plenty of space for sleep, work and hobbies. Reached by a winding country lane and nestled in a private, bucolic setting highlighted by seasonal views of the Hudson, the home feels remote but is anything but. Located between Kingston and New Paltz, it offers easy access to the region’s hiking trails, historic sites, shopping and dining. If you are looking for a refuge from modern life without sacrificing modern comforts and proximity to activities, you’ve found it. 1 year lease. Owner pays lawn mowing and snow plowing. Tenant pays for all utilities and rental insurance which is required. Tenant is responsible for garbage service.
