Serenity Cove - An Entire Riverfront Landscape
Privately situated along the Hudson River, just south of the Kingston-Rhinecliff Bridge, Serenity Cove is an extraordinary 44.90-acre offering defined by breathtaking views, privacy, and natural beauty. Featuring approximately 1,000 feet of Hudson River frontage, a secluded cove, dramatic 40-foot waterfall, private pond, mature woodlands, and elevated river views, this remarkable property presents a rare opportunity to own a significant piece of the Hudson Valley.
The naturally sheltered waterfront cove gives the property its name, while a spectacular 40-foot waterfall cascades through the landscape toward the river. Together, these distinctive natural features create an exceptional setting of beauty and tranquility.
As the seasons change, so does the landscape. Fall is particularly spectacular, when the surrounding woodlands transform into brilliant autumn colors, revealing sweeping 180-degree panoramic views of the Hudson River. Mornings bring beautiful sunrises over the water, while evenings offer captivating views of the illuminated Kingston-Rhinecliff Bridge in the distance. Each season brings a different perspective to this remarkable landscape.
The property consists of approximately 12 acres along the riverfront and an additional 32.9 acres of wooded landscape west of Ulster Landing Road. This expansive woodland features maintained trails, varied terrain, and a large private pond, providing opportunities for recreation, exploration, conservation, or simply enjoying the peaceful natural surroundings. The combination of waterfront and woodland acreage creates an exceptional sense of space and privacy.
Despite its secluded setting, Serenity Cove is conveniently located near the celebrated restaurants, galleries, cultural attractions, and sophisticated country lifestyle of the Hudson Valley. Rhinebeck, Kingston, Woodstock, and Saugerties are within easy reach, along with Kingston Airport for private aviation and Amtrak service to New York City. Nearby parks provide additional recreational opportunities, including picnic areas and boat launches.
Serenity Cove offers tremendous potential as a magnificent private estate, compound, or sophisticated Hudson Valley retreat. Located within the Town of Ulster's R-30 Residential Zoning District, the property's substantial acreage may present additional opportunities for residential, agricultural, recreational, or conservation-oriented uses, subject to applicable zoning regulations and municipal approvals. The possibilities make this an especially compelling offering for those seeking both privacy and long-term potential.
Near the southern end of the property stands an approximately 3,774-square-foot brick three-unit residence awaiting updating, accompanied by a three-car garage. These existing improvements offer an opportunity to incorporate the structures into a broader vision for the property.
Serenity Cove is truly one of a kind. With substantial acreage, exceptional Hudson River frontage, a secluded cove, dramatic waterfall, private pond, and breathtaking 180-degree seasonal river views, this extraordinary property combines natural beauty, privacy, and remarkable potential.
More than simply a riverfront property, Serenity Cove is an entire Hudson Valley landscape, offering an extraordinary canvas of opportunity awaiting your vision.
