法官埃莫里·蔡斯庄园 — 一座镀金时代的哈德逊河谷杰作

位于纽约卡茨基尔最著名的街区，俯瞰哈德逊河、里普·范·温克尔桥和弗雷德里克·丘奇传奇的奥拉纳，这座宏伟的埃莫里·蔡斯法官的维多利亚风格住宅建于1880年代，是哈德逊河谷黄金时代的庄严象征。

这座历史悠久、优雅大方的宏伟住宅曾接待过一位美国总统、一位宇航员以及纽约的司法成员。在它的传奇双客厅内，蔡斯法官的女儿曾庆祝她的婚礼招待会——这反映了这座住宅悠久的优雅聚会和精致款待的传统。

经过精心修复，这座住宅提供九间卧室和三间半浴室，和谐融合了现代舒适与不可替代的19世纪工艺。每一个细节都诉说着一个艺术时代，今天很少可以见到——从手工雕刻的木工到高耸的三层楼梯，再到复杂的石膏天花板、玛瑙壁炉、宽板地板和原始的口袋门。

图书馆配有原始的内置书架，仍然是静思的避风港。同时，新设计的美食厨房——通过一整面玻璃门沐浴在自然光中——与宽敞的阳台和宽敞的后院无缝连接，非常适合大型招待或亲密的夏夜聚会。一个宽敞的摇椅前廊和二楼阳台提供了理想的观景点，可以欣赏到河流不断变化的光线、颜色以及宏伟的日出和反射的河畔日落。

主屋后，一座两层的马车房恭候重新想象——也许可以作为客房、艺术家工作室或车库，可能性无穷无尽！从桥街通往院子的一个隐蔽服务车道入口为便利和隐私提供了保障。

虽然目前设置为私人住宅，但该物业的规模和布局轻松适合转变为优雅的客栈或精品民宿（需依据当地批准）。双客厅、正式的餐厅、宽敞的甲板和花园为接待客人或举办特殊聚会提供了理想的公共空间——这是住宅悠久社交历史的自然延伸。

这座住宅坐落于比提-鲍尔斯房子和通往河边的州维护小径之间，享有隐私和便利。短短的步行就能到达卡茨基尔复兴过的主街，那里有著名的餐厅、酒厂、精品店、福兰德当代艺术综合体和经典电影院。

哈德逊的美铁站仅10分钟车程，温德姆和亨特滑雪胜地25分钟，巴德学院25分钟，纽约市仅2小时，这座历史庄园位于文化活力与永恒之美的交汇点——对那些寻求承载遗产、优雅、永恒工艺与现代便利的真实哈德逊河谷杰作的人来说，这是一处难得的哈德逊河谷物业。

The Judge Emory Chase Residence — A Gilded Age Hudson Valley Masterpiece

Presiding over the most distinguished block in Catskill, New York, with sweeping vistas of the Hudson River, the Rip Van Winkle Bridge, and Frederic Church’s storied Olana, stands the magnificent 1880s Victorian home of Judge Emory Chase — a stately symbol of the Hudson Valley’s golden era.

Steeped in history and grace, this grand residence once welcomed a U.S. President, an astronaut, and members of New York’s judiciary. Within its storied double parlor, Judge Chase’s daughter celebrated her wedding reception — a reflection of the home’s long tradition of elegant gatherings and refined hospitality.

Painstakingly restored, the residence offers nine bedrooms and three and a half baths, harmoniously blending modern comfort with irreplaceable 19th-century craftsmanship. Every detail speaks to an era of artistry rarely seen today — from hand-carved millwork and the soaring three-story staircase to intricate plaster crown moldings, marble fireplaces, wide-plank floors, and original pocket doors.

The library, with its original built-in bookcases, remains a sanctuary for quiet reflection. Meanwhile, the newly designed gourmet kitchen — bathed in natural light through an entire wall of glass doors — opens seamlessly to a spacious deck and generous backyard, perfect for grand-scale entertaining or intimate summer evenings. A gracious rocking-chair front porch and second-floor balcony offer ideal vantage points for taking in the stunning views of the river’s ever-changing light, color and majestic sunrises and reflected river sunsets.

Behind the main house, a two-story carriage house awaits re-imagination — perhaps as a guest residence, artist’s studio, garage- the possibilities are endless! A discreet service road entrance from Bridge Street leads directly to the yard, offering both convenience and privacy.

While currently configured as a private home, the property’s scale and layout lend themselves effortlessly to transformation into an elegant inn or boutique bed-and-breakfast (subject to local approvals). The double parlors, formal dining room, expansive deck, and gardens provide ideal common spaces for hosting guests or special gatherings — a natural extension of the home’s long social history.

Nestled between the Beattie-Powers House and a state-maintained trail to the river’s edge, the residence enjoys both privacy and proximity. Just a short stroll leads to Catskill’s revitalized Main Street, home to acclaimed restaurants, breweries, boutiques, the Foreland contemporary art complex, and a classic movie theater.

With Hudson’s Amtrak station only 10 minutes away, Windham and Hunter ski resorts 25 minutes, Bard College 25 minutes, and New York City only 2 hours, this historic estate stands at the intersection of cultural vitality and timeless beauty — a rare Hudson Valley offering for those who seek a true Hudson Valley masterpiece steeped in heritage, elegance, timeless craftsmanship coupled with modern conveniences. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
