Red Hook, NY

River Road is a very scenic route stretching from Rhinebeck to Red Hook.  You really don't have to guess as to which river it is near, the Hudson River of course.

On River Road you will find beautiful homes, estates, farms, open fields and fantastic views of the Catskill Mountain and Hudson River in some spots.

River Road is a route you will take if you get off the Kingston Rhinecliff Bridge and is heading to Bard College or to a performance at the Fisher Center.

On the way you will past  the well known Migliorelli farmstand, and Poet's Walk a park operated by Scenic Hudson.

River Road has many bends so you have to be careful not to get too carried away with the scenery.  You will get to a crossroad where Barrytown Road crosses River Road which then becomes Annandale Road.  Bard College is located in Annandale so my next Blog post will take you from this crossing right to Bard College.

I don't know if this is humorous Monday. However, I had such a crazy start to my day that I just had to share this, now that I can laugh about it.

My husband is fortunate to be one of those people who has a vacation day today. I thought it would be nice to make him breakfast before heading off to pick up some signs and remove a lockbox for the property I am closing on tomorrow.

Okay, so here is where it gets funny; I cooked bacon, toasted an english muffin and was in the process of making some scrambled eggs when I decided it would be a good time to also make him a cup of espresso. So here I was thinking about the eggs on the stove while making the espresso. Then, I started pouring the espresso into what I thought was the cup, but, instead I poured it over the english muffin and bacon. So what can a girl do? I couldn't salvage this, so, I had to start all over.

Yes, sometimes you are better off not multitasking.

RED HOOK NY REAL ESTATE MARKET REPORT - SEPTEMBER 2009

In September the Red Hook NY single family real estate market did not have as many sales as in the month of August. I suspect some first time buyers waited until the last moment to get in on the $8000 Tax Credit so November could be a great month for home sales.

Properties on the market in Red Hook during September ranged from $169,900 - $2,900,000

So here is the breakdown of the September real estate market in the town of Red Hook, the village of Red Hook and the village of Tivoli.

Interesting Facts About Red Hook

1. Did you know Red Hook was once part of the town of Rhinebeck?

2. Because the communities had over 5000 residents the legislature decided to separate them in 1812 to make it more convenient for them to attend town meetings.

Data for report obtained from the Mid Hudson MLS

Because of the heavy rainfall this year it seems these fungi have popped up everywhere. I treat them all as poisonous. I wonder how you could tell which ones are edible? Don't worry, I am not likely to try one.

I enjoy living in Dutchess County; and it is a pleasure for me to help consumers with their real estate needs. If you are considering buying or selling real estate please give me a call.
