Conyn-Van Rensselaer House, 1766 Brick Dutch Colonial in Hudson, New York

If you're a Food Network viewer, you may recognize this house, or more so this kitchen. They belong to Nancy Fuller from the shows Farmhouse Rules, Holiday Baking Championship and Spring Baking Championship. Her upstate New York home has been the location for her show and many of the rooms, as well as the barns and much of the property, has been featured. She is selling her beloved property and now you have a chance to own this piece of history. 

There are links to articles where Nancy talks about the home in the full post. The family dairy farm that she talks about on the show is also for sale. It includes an 1860's farmhouse, but there are no photos of the house. I've added a link to that property in the post as well.

Charles Over Mansion, 1902 Brick Colonial Revival in Muncie, Indiana

LISTING DETAILS

Opportunity, style, historic value, modern amenities and VALUE are all things that generally can't be found in one single house. I can't quite explain the feelings involved with walking in this front door. The natural woodwork, the history and space are all entirely breathtaking. This home has undergone a significant renovation in the past several years culminating into the form that you see now. This home is one of the single greatest values in the US. At almost 12,000 sq ft, this home in the Emily Kimbrough Historic District is one of the single most recognizable homes in Muncie. It has been featured in Magazines, Television, Movies and local publications. It has been recognized nationally for it's charm, character and pure value. 

A look inside will reveal a plethora of natural wood, custom paint, professional work and class mixed with all updated and working mechanical systems.

It has almost 3300 sq ft of dry basement for storage and many other uses. Through the dining room you will find a magnificent kitchen attached to a large walk in pantry. Entertaining. Cozy living.

The Mountain House, 1899 Victorain Catskill Cottage in Mt. Tremper, New York

If anyone would like to purchase this house for me, you can message me on Facebook to let me know when I can move in. I'm in LOVE! How about you?

LISTING DETAILS

The Mountain House is like no property this veteran agent has ever seen. Sited on 26 uber-private acres and surrounded by state land, the home itself is accessed by a quarter-mile driveway through the woods and enjoys sweeping mountain views to the northeast and 800 feet of frontage and a waterfall on the Cold Spring Brook, a tributary of the Esopus Creek. The proportions of the house are grand, with 120 feet of columned porches, 12-foot ceilings and spacious rooms, yet there's no pretense here; this is a humble mountain retreat that offers plenty of relaxed space for family and friends. Many of the first floor walls and ceilings are clad in pressed tin, various ceilings are coffered or adorned with intricate plaster moldings, and original woodwork and floors are in chestnut and Douglas fir. There are multiple places to both gather and seek solitude - morning room, living room, billiard room, casual and formal dining rooms, the rooftop widow's watch, as well as plenty of spots on the rambling property that beckon. Bedrooms are all spacious, and the walk-up attic offers an opportunity to create yet another place to tuck away. The rear, brick portion of the home perhaps predates the construction of the clapboard-clad structure. Extensive renovations were undertaken by the current owners and include new systems, siding and insulation, and it was important to them to retain the aesthetic of the old while installing the new. A separate studio/guest cottage sits across the lawn, and is ripe for an interior renovation. An easy trail from The Mountain House leads to the rear boundary of the property, where the deck over the brook offers the most romantic and serene spot to get even farther away from the world. That said, the Emerson Resort and Spa and Foxfire Mountain House offer dining and recreation within walking distance, and the town of Phoenicia, Bellayre Ski Center and loads of other attractions are nearby.
