5036 DELAWARE TPKE
RENSSELAERVILLE, NY 12147

Built in 1809 and architect designed, this classically ornamented federal house is absolutely exuberant in its overall exterior design. The second floor Palladian tri-panel window over the columned front entrance is right out of eighteenth-century design books. Entirely intact with gracious rooms and original details throughout, rarely do we see a house of this historic quality come onto the market. Enter into the huge center hall with soaring ceilings, plaster medallions, and the impressive carved staircase. Formal parlors flank the front hall and lead into smaller, more intimate spaces as one is drawn from room to room. Original fireplaces are found on both floors and early wavy glass punctuates the multi-paned windows. Flooded with natural light, the house is surrounded by extensive lawns and dry-laid stone walls supporting terraces of different levels rising toward the rear of the large lot. Nestled right on Main Street in the most picturesque hamlet in the Helderberg Hills, just three hours from NYC and forty-five minutes from Albany International airport or the Hudson Amtrak station.
