Austerlitz NY Real Estate & Homes for Sale

Welcome to Wildflower Cottage, a charming hideaway nestled in the woods of upstate New York. This modernized interpretation of a traditional New England bungalow has undergone a complete remodel, optimizing every inch of its footprint. The recent additions of decks, porches, stairs, and planter walls seamlessly blend the cottage with its natural surroundings. Reimagined and designed by Rebecca O'Donnell, founder of The Quiet Botanist, this partially wooded and cleared land features wildflower gardens, diverse birdlife, and a stream. Situated adjacent to the expansive Bebee National Conservation Area, this property offers a secluded haven for nature enthusiasts, while still being conveniently located in charming Columbia County and a short drive to the picturesque Berkshires.

On over eight acres of woodlands in the hills of Austerlitz sits this picturesque cabin. Connected to hundreds of acres of state land, you can hike Harvey Mountain right out your front door. The recent renovations make this light & bright home a completely move-in-ready proposition. The original beams have been left untouched throughout and create warmth in tone, while the rest of the home has been finished with a clean, neutral palette. The kitchen has an English style range, marble countertops and lovely deep red cabinetry, and a farmhouse sink looks out over the property. The adjacent living area is anchored by a wood stove. There are two bedrooms and two baths on the main floor, one is ensuite and the other, with an antique clawfoot tub, is shared. Both are finished with beautiful Moroccan zellige tile. Upstairs, there is a cozy, private living space and a large light filled third bedroom. You'll find a large two car garage outside for parking & hobbies. The home borders the Hudson Valley/Berkshire border and is equidistant to both Chatham and West Stockbridge and just over 2h to NYC.
