2884 Atlantic Avenue, Stottville, NY 12172 - Columbia County

Enchanting, affordable two-bedroom Carpenter Gothic cottage with distinctive vergeboards (decorative gable trim). Enter the living room through a long charming, enclosed porch, great for relaxing during three seasons overlooking the side/back yard with tall spruce trees and, across the street, a handsome craftsman style church. The wide living/dining room has an original fireplace mantel and freshly painted floors that connect with the striking black and white floor tiles of the bright stylish kitchen with dark walls and cupboards, 1930s white enameled drainboard sink, 2022 dishwasher and gas range, bright red retro countertop, and modern stainless ceiling fan. Around the corner is the newly renovated bathroom with combination bath and shower. Upstairs are two ample bedrooms; one has original mantel. The walkout lower level includes a laundry room with a 2022 stacking washer/dryer, enameled sink, and shelves, plus a storage/work room that needs renovation, and a utility room. Built circa 1850 by skilled carpenters following the style of famous American landscape designer A. J. Downing (1815 -1852), who promoted Gothic Revival homes in the US. In his book Cottage Residences, he advocated ornamental ''pendent being cut out of inch board, and the points terminated by acorns turned and nailed on,'' as represented by the vergeboards on this house. The house has municipal water and sewer, natural gas, is steps from the Albany-Hudson Electric Trail, Claverack Creek, and convenient to Greenport shopping. Downtown Hudson is just a few minutes away with all it has to offer, and NYC is two hours away.
