Buying in the Hudson Valley is an adventure, a treasure hunt. As you look, you may wonder what kinds of stories, spaces, and landscapes you will uncover. And, for someone with a love for fashion and art, Bruyn Estate in Pine Bush could be a perfect find.
New to market and listed for $1.695 million, the 8.5-acre spread has most recently functioned as a picturesque event and wedding venue, but has lived many lives and could become your private getaway now. In the 1800s, the homestead began as a working sheep farm, providing wool for Brooks Brothers during the brand’s beginning years. Its clothing ties don’t stop there though. By the 1980s, it had come into the hands of the great-grandson of Isaac Singer, founder of Singer Sewing Machines, one of the first American companies to reach pivotal success.
Arriving at the property today, upon first glance it gives the impression of just holding two charming farmhouses: A circa-1835 Greek Revival and a home made of reclaimed barn beams. However, what lies beyond their doors is lively and vibrant as well as utterly cozy. In both homes, a moody and dramatic vintage aesthetic unfolds, blending eclectic elegance with rustic Hudson Valley warmth. Exposed log walls, clawfoot tubs, striking wallpapers, and a black-painted staircase develop character and edge. Not to mention, between the two structures, there are eight bedrooms for fun-filled holiday celebrations.
The dramatic interiors may not be for everyone, but they have a point of view and garner a reaction, rather than being overly neutral or devised to suit everyone. Isn’t that what fashion and art are all about? With plenty of land to enjoy year-round as well, buyers could add a pool and gardens as they wish. Anthony D’Argenzio of This Old Hudson holds the listing.
