About this property

Wappinger Cottage - Scandinavian retreat on a creek

  • Wappinger Cottage is a Scandinavian-inspired home on Wappinger Creek. Pets allowed. Air-conditioning. Underfloor heating. Ample off-street parking.

    The home is nestled in a serene neighborhood that invites peaceful walks through the forests and along the river. Poughkeepsie is nearby meaning tasty local restaurants and charming shops are always just a short drive away.

    We are located at the end of a short private road and not visible from the rest of the quaint, established neighborhood. On approach you will be discover a mysterious black barn-like structure. Follow the path to the wrap-around deck to be greeted with walls of glass and a beautiful view of the trees and creek.

    Flowing from the deck is a spacious open-plan living and dining space with a modern and efficient kitchen; two queen bedrooms with built-in closets- one with ensuite bathroom; a bunk room sleeping a further two guests; another bathroom with a tub; and a laundry room. The whole house has underfloor heating, which heats the polished concrete floors and radiates a cozy heat. In warm weather, large screened casement windows and sliding doors naturally ventilate the interior. High speed Wi-Fi, Apple TV, Nest thermostat and key-free access bring modern technology to the countryside.

    Uber and Lyft both operate in Poughkeepsie and there are also local taxis waiting at the train station.

    We are always available by phone or email if any issues arise.
