Cove House, Germantown

Perched atop a bluff overlooking the Hudson River, Cove House is a secluded 12-acre estate formerly part of the Philip Rockefeller farm. The main building is a 3,500-square-foot Italian-inspired farmhouse with a two-level arched pergola porch and a cupola. On the primary level, the house features 10′ and 14′ ceilings. The house features plaster walls and classical trim. Hardwood and wide-board antique pine floors are seen throughout the house. The main house was built in 1999.

The spacious chef’s kitchen features a Wolf dual-fuel range and Vermont soapstone countertops. It opens to a generous dining area with striking views of the Hudson River. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room. Two additional rooms on the main level are currently configured as an office suite. Together, they could also accommodate a private main-level bedroom suite.

Upstairs are three bedrooms, including an expansive primary suite with French doors opening onto a private 400-square-foot deck. The primary bathroom includes a claw-foot tub and shower. On the third level, there is a hidden playroom and cupola lookout.

The double-depth attached garage accommodates up to four cars. Alternatively, a portion of the space could be retained as a two-car garage while allowing for the installation of an elevator.

Walker’s Mill Germantown
A rare and historically significant Hudson Valley estate set within a matchless idyllic landscape of cascading water, mature woodlands, and over 20 acres adjoining protected conservation land. The property comprises two extraordinary structures — a former grist mill and barn — each transformed into its own residence.

Known as “Walker’s Mill,” the site has evolved over generations since its development by members of the Livingston family over 200 years ago. Celebrated interior designer David Whitcomb acquired the long-abandoned ca-1800 mill in the 1960s and undertook a visionary transformation that would become one of the defining creative projects of his career. Published in Architectural Digest and admired within the design community, Whitcomb’s adaptive reuse preserved the spirit of the original industrial structure through the incorporation of salvaged timber framing, locally gathered fieldstone, the historic waterwheel and other reclaimed architectural elements.

Together with the converted barn residence, the ensemble forms an exceptional compound where history, architecture, landscape, and artistic legacy exist in complete harmony. Both deeply private and profoundly evocative, Walker’s Mill represents a singular opportunity to steward an important historic property within one of the Hudson Valley’s most enchanting natural settings.

A heartfelt thank you for supporting the 3rd Annual Gingerbread House Event

Four years ago, I wanted to come up with an idea to add to the Germantown Winter Glow. What could be more fitting than a gingerbread house event? The Germantown Central School Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA) agreed to help. We decided to make it a fundraiser for GCS Giving, a program run through the PTSA that helps students in the school district, as determined by the school social workers. Funds raised are used throughout the year for gifts through the Holiday Giving Program, support for families who have a sudden loss of income, emergency clothing needs, field trip fees, summer camp registration fees, extracurricular activities, sports equipment, school pictures, and yearbooks.

2023 was our first year, and we had no idea what to expect. But the school and community really came through! The gingerbread creations were amazing and the support was wonderful. We ended up raising over $2,500.

Last year, the gingerbread houses were once again incredible, but the fundraising was not as successful. Despite the effort shown by everyone, we raised less than the first year.

This year, I debated whether to continue the event, but one Germantown resident turned it around for me by giving a very generous early donation, which was matched by his company! The community’s generosity for the 2025 event has been overwhelming. We are still in the process of receiving donations, but we can safely say we raised over $8,000. The adult entries sold out and raised more than $2,000. Pamela Murphy, a Hinkein Realty agent, single-handedly raised $2,000.

A special shout-out to the school’s CAP program and Janet Crawford for decorating gingerbread houses with students each year. The Firehouse has been wonderful by providing event space.

To the participants, thank you for your efforts. Without you, there would be no event! Be patient with us as we figure out ways to improve the process.

We all know this was a hard year with many very worthwhile nonprofit organizations out there. Thank you for supporting children in our local community.

Wishing you all a wonderful Holiday Season.
Patty
