歡迎來到麥克·布朗水屋，一個佔地119英畝的歷史悠久莊園，坐落於一個隱秘的山谷中，提供完全的隱私和永恆的美麗。原始的1830年代農舍隱藏在紐約克拉弗拉克的一條私人小徑的盡頭，這條路終止於一個圓形的砾石車道，旁邊是該地產的原始石井。土地上有兩個大型池塘，一個就在房子正前方，水質良好可供游泳。主要房屋、升級過的穀倉和迷人的工作室小屋坐落於草地和成熟的樹林之間，圍繞著梯田狀的石工、步道網絡和經過精心設計的花園。這裡的環境寧靜、恢復精力，與土地有著深厚的聯繫，同時距離哈德遜和大巴林頓僅需短暫車程。

這座古董農舍擁有四間臥室和兩間浴室，總面積2,825平方英尺，原始的細節如雕花邊、木地板和荷蘭門保存了其舊世界的魅力。一個寬敞的雙客廳和一個配備Vitsoe模組化書架的辦公小角，通往明亮的餐區、廚房，以及通往露台和花園的直通通道。房屋的布局鼓勵室內和戶外之間的自然律動，設有遮蓋的門廊和多個露台，可供休息、烹飪或聚會。兩條樓梯通向樓上的臥室，南向的采光使每個房間充滿陽光，閣樓經過隔熱以提高四季的舒適度。整個房屋的色調搭配既柔和又統一。整體設計將歐洲的品味與哈德遜山谷的特徵相融合，平衡了實用與便捷、溫暖和低調的優雅。

花園對面是一座完全隔熱的歷史穀倉，已轉變為大型創意工作室，配備浴室、爪足浴缸、簡易廚房以及更新的電力和暖通空調系統。一個獨立的花房提供了另一個多功能空間，理想用作花園工作室、作家小角或未來的客房小屋。它連接到一個戶外浴池甲板，邀請在星空下享受恢復性的浸泡，這裡設有壁爐、爪足浴缸和戶外淋浴。在房子旁邊，一個帶有電動汽車充電設施的車棚和全物業發電機，確保全年舒適和持續的電力。

主要池塘是這個地產的中心——水質良好、可供游泳，並被卵石沙灘和篝火坑圍繞。這裡非常適合游泳、觀鳥或晚上聚會。這裡能看到丹頂鶴、蒼鷺，甚至白頭鷹的身影，令人流連忘返的觀鳥天堂。由「秘密花園者」設計的梯田花園將房子圍繞，融合了田園風格的花卉植物、香草和蔬菜。再生的田野和草地通往兩英里維護的步道，穿過本地草類和高大的樹木。這片土地符合林業豁免條件，並包括多個開闊區域，為建造客房、養馬甚至直升機坪提供了潛力。無論是在草坪上舉辦音樂會，從花園收獲，還是欣賞變化的天空在池塘中的倒影，麥克·布朗水屋都是一個難得的遺產莊園和真正的庇護所。

Welcome to Mac Brown Waterhouse, a storied 119-acre estate set within a hidden valley offering complete seclusion and timeless beauty. The original 1830s farmhouse is tucked away at the end of a private lane in Claverack, NY, where the road terminates in a round gravel driveway anchored by the property’s original stone well. Two large ponds grace the land, one directly in front of the house that is aerated and swimmable. Sited among meadows and mature woodlands, the main house, upgraded barn, and charming studio shed are framed by terraced stonework, a network of trails, and thoughtfully designed gardens. The setting is peaceful, restorative, and deeply connected to the land, yet only a short drive to both Hudson and Great Barrington.

The antique farmhouse offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms across 2,825 square feet, where original details like moldings, wood floors, and Dutch doors preserve its old-world charm. A generous double living room and an office nook outfitted with Vitsoe modular shelving, lead to a bright dining area, kitchen, and direct access to the patios and gardens. The layout encourages an easy indoor-outdoor rhythm, with covered porches, and multiple terraces for lounging, cooking, or gathering. Two staircases rise to the upper-level bedrooms, where the southern exposure fills each room with light, and the attic has been insulated to improve year-round comfort. Throughout the home an intentional color palette lends softness and cohesion. The overall design brings together European sensibility and Hudson Valley character, balancing utility with ease, warmth, and quiet sophistication.


Across the garden sits a fully insulated, historic barn that has been transformed into a large-scale creative studio, complete with a bathroom with a clawfoot tub, kitchenette, updated electrical and HVAC. A detached potting shed offers another versatile space, ideal as a garden studio, writer’s nook, or future guest cottage. It’s connected to an outdoor bath deck that invites restorative soaks beneath the stars with its fireplace, clawfoot tub, and outdoor shower. Next to the house, a carport with EV charging and a full-property generator ensures comfort and continuity year-round.


The primary pond is the centerpiece of the property—aerated, swimmable, and bordered by a pebble beach and firepit. It's ideal for swimming, birdwatching, or evening gatherings. Cranes, herons, and even bald eagle sightings make it a birdwatching paradise. Terraced gardens by The Secret Gardener surround the home with a cottage-style blend of flowering plants, herbs and vegetables. Rewilded fields and meadows lead to two miles of maintained trails through native grasses and towering trees. The land qualifies for a forestry exemption and includes multiple cleared areas, offering potential for a guest house, horses, or even a helipad. Whether hosting music on the lawn, harvesting from the garden, or watching the changing sky reflect in the pond, Mac Brown Waterhouse is a rare legacy estate and true sanctuary. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
