Following up on yesterday’s post about a beautiful but slightly rundown turn of the century house in Kingston, NY, we thought we’d take a look at what’s on the market in the former state capital. The most eye-popping property on the market right now, as far as we can tell, is the Cordts Mansion, a 30-room, Second Empire house on 13 acres overlooking the Hudson River. You’ve gotta click thru and check out the photos in the listing. It’s insane! And the price? $2,700,000, slightly less than what the Carroll Gardens Atrocity is listed for. Drool.

  1. This house is owned by the artist Hunt Slonem and is profiled in the gorgeous book Pleasure Palaces. This is not in a very nice neighborhood of Kingston, NY. It needs a ton of work.
    Not a bargain in these recession times.Must cost a fortune to maintain.

  2. Husband and I will hire ourselves out as a butler and ladies’ maid couple if we may be allowed to live in that CARRIAGE HOUSE!!! (drool drool drool)
    Yes, m’Lord? Very good, m’lady. (practicing in front of mirror)
