A unique opportunity to rent one of the Hudson Valley's most poetic and iconic homes; The Peary Homestead, featured in Veranda and Private Gardens of the Hudson Valley, is now available from Labor Day through Memorial Day. Newly renovated in 2020 by renowned architect Chip Bohl and Designer Louise Copeland, this fully furnished Gothic Style home in Germantown, NY was built in 1823 by the sea captain Robert Peary. A chic blend of Hudson Valley contemporary style and traditional art and antiques, the home rests on the high point of Northern Boulevard with views of the Hudson River. The Peary Homestead has hosted a litany of notable figures in residence including a naturalist, a famous business executive and the lead horticulturalist of The New York Botanical Gardens. The exterior features extensive and cultivated English style country gardens including parterre and espalier perennial gardens and a 270-foot greenhouse with fenced in cutting and vegetable kitchen gardens. The inground pool incorporates 2 lotus water gardens and can stay open through September. Inside, the 4028 square foot main house features 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. A fully screened exterior porch with seating and dining furniture provides outdoor space well-into the autumn, and just inside the open floorplan chef's kitchen with an eating area provides phenomenal space for cooking and entertaining. In addition, the first level boasts a pantry, mudroom, formal dining-room, living room, office, half bath and sunroom overlooking the gardens. Extremely cozy in winter, this home has 3 fireplaces scattered throughout the lower level. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes a gas fireplace, en-suite bath, and 2 walk-in dressing room closets.
