About this property
Black Walnut - Historic Country Escape
Welcome to Black Walnut - a unique and charming getaway, just 10 minutes from the heart of downtown Hudson and the Amtrak station.
Once home to a vintage local candy store, this beautifully restored estate blends rustic Hudson Valley charm with modern comfort and artistic energy. Perfect for families, friend getaways or anyone seeking an upstate escape -offering large, inviting, living spaces and lots of sunlight!
The dining room opens to a welcoming front porch, while the farmhouse kitchen offers modern amenities, in-kitchen laundry, and access to a private patio perfect for outdoor dining or stargazing. The living room offers a classic wood stove, perfect for curling up beside with a good book, cocktail or cup of coffee.
Upstairs, the large primary bedroom is complemented by a spa-like bathroom with a soaking tub and rain shower. Step into the second bedroom — the hand-chosen cloud wallpaper adds a whimsical and soothing touch that blends rustic charm with a modern aesthetic.
The property’s screened-in porch offers dining and lounge seating — the perfect setting for evening cocktails, intimate dinners, or simply soaking in the upstate air.
