Richmond Hill, a Classic Federal House built in 1814 for Walter Livingston; 58 acres surrounded by forever-protected lands on one of the prettiest roads in Columbia County.

Lovely Palladian elements enhance the facade of this stylish and important structure with a subtle sense of formality not often seen in our area. Inside are gorgeous details including intricately carved mantels, gracefully proportioned parlors, a wide hall and a sweeping staircase with two landings leading to four bedrooms. A large kitchen wing with a sunporch overlooks the rear fields and woodlands with a peek at the Catskill Mountains. Near the house are two significant carriage houses, designed in the style of A.J. Davis, framing a large graveled courtyard.

The farm complex includes a period Dutch barn and a huge dairy barn with a soaring hay loft ready for reinterpretation to modern use. Richmond Hill is on the National Register; 15 minutes to Hudson Amtrak, 20 minutes to Columbia County Airport.
