A little country manor is about to hit the market 👀

Set high on a hill across 13 private acres in Kerhonkson, this upstate compound has all the good stuff: a 5-bedroom main house with original hardwoods, stone walls + fireplace, a separate guest cottage with garage, stable barn + paddock, pool, fruit trees, mature evergreens and plenty of room to disappear for the weekend—or stay forever.

Minutes from Minnewaska + Mohonk, with INNESS, Ravenwood and some of our favorite Accord/Kerhonkson spots nearby.

And she’s not live yet.

What if your lake house used to be a church? ⛪️🌊

Meet The Lady of the Lake — a design-forward former church overlooking Kinderhook Lake in Columbia County, NY.

Now a beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home, she still has the iconic steeple and chapel silhouette—but inside, it’s an entirely different story. A renovated kitchen, dreamy primary suite with green Zia tile, screened-in porch overlooking the lake, landscaped backyard with a pea gravel firepit area, and major updates from the roof to the plumbing, electrical and heating.

And potentially the best part? She may be delivered turnkey, furnishings included.

The location is pretty special, too. You’re minutes from Kinderhook, Chatham, Old Chatham and some of my favorite spots in Columbia County, with Hudson + Amtrak within easy reach.

I put together my Kinderhook + Old Chatham day guide with all the places I’d eat, shop, explore and spend a perfect day nearby.

Comment KINDERHOOK and I’ll send you the guide. 🥐☕️🌿

JUST SOLD ✨ 3 Schoolhouse Road, Saugerties — $1,095,000

This one was all about the details.

A modern black cabin set against unobstructed Catskill Mountain views, with custom walnut cabinetry, white oak floors, radiant heat, designer lighting, a seriously dreamy primary suite, and walls of glass that make the landscape part of the house.

Design-forward homes are always my favorite to represent, and I’m so happy to see this one officially closed and heading into its next chapter.

Congrats to my sellers — and to the lucky new owners who get to wake up to that view. 🖤

Thinking about selling a home in Saugerties, Woodstock, Kingston or the Catskills? I bring a design + staging lens to every listing to make sure the details that make a property special are the ones buyers actually notice.

Before & after home staging and pre-listing renovations in the Hudson Valley. ➡️

This is one of my favorite examples of how thoughtful updates can completely change a home’s value in the eyes of buyers—without taking on a full renovation.

For this listing, I oversaw a strategic pre-market refresh:
• Removed an awkward kitchen island and second sink to improve the kitchen layout
• Repainted the interior in Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, a warm white that instantly brightened the home
• Staged and styled every room to highlight the home’s best features

The results:
✔️ 5 days on market
✔️ Multiple offers
✔️ Landed well above asking price

One of the biggest mistakes I see sellers make is spending money in the wrong places. The right pre-listing improvements and staging strategy can dramatically change buyer perception—and often the final sale price.

If you’re thinking about selling in the Hudson Valley or Catskills, I’d be happy to walk through your home and help you decide which updates are actually worth making before listing.
