"Springside" the early 19th century residence which for decades was a staple on the Greene County Historical Society's "Old Homes Tour", has just come on the market. This area landmark is situated in a charming part of the village that contains many period houses including the residence of artist Thomas Cole, a National Historic Site, and has been lovingly restored to its 19th century splendor. The beautifully landscaped grounds include an ornamental pond and a spring house that has long been renowned for its delicious, cool, pure water, which was conducted by a series of wooden troughs to most of the homes in the village as early as 1806. Located within easy access to the NYS Thruway, the rail line to New York City, and the shopping and antique center of Hudson. Of special interest are the grand central stairway, the lovely interior woodwork, 5 fire places, and the tall windows with colored glass that extend across an entire wall of the sitting room. The home has 6 bedrooms and 5 baths. At the rear of the property is a cozy 5-room carriage house featuring a working fireplace, two bedrooms and a deck. This would make a great Bed and Breakfast!
