What's Selling in the Hudson Valley Rivertowns - September 2011

11-05-11
Donna Cox

Every month for the past 8 years, I've written a column in the Nyack Villager outlining what’s going in the real estate market in our area. The Nyack Villager is a great magazine that covers "All The News That's Fit To Print" in the Hudson Valley Rivertowns.

What are the Rockland County Rivertowns? The Rivertowns are a collection of small towns and villages situated on the western banks of the Hudson River. The Rivertowns are among the most special and sought after locations in the lower Hudson Valley and include Palisades, Sneden's Landing, Piermont, Upper Grandview, Grand View, South Nyack, Nyack, Central Nyack and Upper Nyack. Located about 15 minutes north of Manhattan, the Rivertowns are perfect for those looking to live in a beautiful, diverse and convenient location with easy access to Manhattan, Connecticut and Westchester.

Here are all the homes that sold during September 2011.

Description
Extraordinary c 1920 stone castle. Turning into the driveway is like stepping back into medieval Scotland. Surrounded by the wooded hills of High Tor state park, the stone manor house is a replica of one constructed in Scotland in 1229. Magnificent architectural details that must be seen to be believed. One of the last true estates left in Rockland County, situated on 7.95 acres with a carriage house, caretaker’s cottage, horse barn and more. Built in the 1920s by Harold Deming and former residence of world renowned doctor, humanitarian and activist, this estate has been a part of the very fabric of Rockland County for generations. A once in a lifetime opportunity with endless possibilities. Call Donna Cox @ 845-641-8613 for more information and to schedule a private viewing.
