Welcome to Rosette House, a charming 1925 home set on a triple lot within an easy walk of the shops, galleries, and restaurants of Warren Street. Tastefully restored and full of antique character, the house features raised ceilings and original wood floors that stretch across the bright, open living space. Three bedrooms and two full baths fill 1,570 square feet. Out back, a sweeping lawn shaded by mature trees spreads across a yard far more expansive than neighboring yards, with plenty of room for a pool, garden, and summer gatherings. The welcoming front porch leads to an open living, dining, and kitchen area, and the rooms fill with natural light. A renovated kitchen and full bath complete the first floor. At the back, an insulated mudroom with its own heat makes muddy boots and wet dogs easy to manage before stepping out to a small new deck. Upstairs, a wide landing serves as a reading nook or home office, and three bedrooms share a newly renovated second full bath. From 1860, this land belonged to the fairgrounds of the Columbia County Agricultural and Horticultural Association, once known as the Hudson River Driving Park, and Oakwood Boulevard begins where the old horse gate opened onto Fairview Avenue. Today the owners' investment extends well beyond the finishes, with an updated electrical system, refinished wood floors, and fresh paint. Out back, a broad, level lawn stretches beneath a towering evergreen and a grand old shade tree, and new fencing and solar lighting give pets room to roam. A stone patio and replanted gardens round out the yard, and a detached garage makes a natural workshop or art studio. Around the corner, Oakdale Park's spring-fed lake and wooded loop trail make for a favorite morning outing, and the high school tennis courts are close by. Supernatural Coffee and the newly opened Pocketbook Hudson, an 1880s factory reborn as a hotel with a bathhouse of thermal pools and steam, are each a short walk away. Upper Depot, Return, and Union Street Brewing all pour within a few blocks of one another. Warren Street rewards a slow afternoon among its antique shops and galleries, with a stop at the Spotty Dog, a bookstore with its own bar, before dinner at Feast & Floret or Le Perche. For everyday errands, an Aldi grocery store is just two minutes away. Basilica Hudson hosts concerts and seasonal markets on the riverfront, and Amtrak reaches Manhattan in about two hours, with Albany under an hour's drive.
