Rooted in legacy, Embury Stone House is a 1930 historic retreat set on 12 private acres. With 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, 4,164 square feet of turnkey living space, and a heated pool, the property pairs comfort with pedigree. Designed by renowned architect Aymar Embury II, the stone landmark was built as part of former Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau Jr.'s Fishkill Farms estate, and became a favored hunting retreat for President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Hewn from stone quarried directly from the hillside, the home remains a masterwork of craft, with gables, soaring chimneys, and arched doorways that capture its storied past.
Inside, original timber beams, mantels, and a grand stone fireplace anchor warm gathering spaces, while broad Tudor-style windows frame mountain and woodland views, and flood the home with light. The modern kitchen, outfitted with Viking appliances, opens to one of many large stone patios for effortless indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. A breakfast nook steps down to a first floor guest bedroom or office with a half bath powder room. Off the kitchen a stairway leads to a sun-drenched gameroom. Upstairs, three bedrooms span two floors, including a primary suite warmed by a stone fireplace, and a third floor suite with a clawfoot tub, office, and an additional room. A flexible attic with a bathroom is not included in the square footage. Recent updates include a new HVAC system, a glass-enclosed shower, and an extended driveway.
Outdoors, the property showcases extensive stonework amidst a landscape of rolling meadows, towering trees, and a meandering creek. The heated saltwater pool and spa create a summer centerpiece, alongside multiple terraced patios that invite alfresco dining surrounded by thousands of acres of protected wilderness. A gated entrance, fencing, and thoughtful lighting enhance both privacy and peace of mind.
With a successful history as a short-term rental, this property offers strong investment potential and lasting legacy. Though completely private, it is just 20 minutes from Beacon and Cold Spring's cultural centers, with direct access to major thoroughfares for an easy connection to New York City. With its rich history, timeless architecture, and turnkey comforts, Embury Stone House is a rare chance to own a piece of Hudson Valley History.
