Built approx. 1830 and first occupied by the prominent businessman and shipbuilder William Morton, his wife and 13 children. He located the house just one street from the Hudson River, a convenient location for his Morton & Edmonds Boatyard. This fine house was designed with double parlors boasting handsome mantles, arches, doric columns and ornate decorative molding details. A total of five bedrooms and a library are on the upper floors. This Second Empire style Mansard roof allows for third floor bedrooms with full ceiling height (plus a peak of the river!). Recent improvements include a radiant heated laundry room with half bath and gas insert in the early kitchen fireplace. A full length open porch on one side of the house is mirrored by a glass enclosed porch on the other, communing with well-tended perennial gardens, yard and shed (original privy). Steps to the waterfront park, weekend ferry, kayak launch, library, unique restaurants & brewery. Come explore this charming historic village and see why it's so popular with New Yorkers, both weekend & full time. Minutes to Hudson (Amtrak).
