Welcome to The Blacksmith, a striking blend of 19th-century craftsmanship and contemporary design in the picturesque hamlet of Livingston. Originally built in 1892 as a blacksmith's shop, this thoughtfully expanded three-bedroom, two-bath farmhouse balances historic charm with modern comfort.
The heart of the home is its original section, where 130-year-old wide-board floors and a dramatic wall of floor-to-ceiling bookshelves create an inviting living space anchored by a distinguished fireplace with a wood stove. To the southwest, a soaring 15-foot ceiling defines the open chef's kitchen, outfitted with updated appliances and designed for effortless cooking and entertaining. Adjacent, a spacious dining area welcomes gatherings, while a cozy lounge nook offers a relaxation retreat.

The northwest wing houses two first-floor bedrooms and a full bath, while the private second-floor suite features a spacious primary bedroom, an en-suite bath, and an enviable walk-in closet with custom built-ins.
The half-acre property extends the home's charm outdoors. A two-story barn presents endless possibilities as a studio, workshop, or garage. Established fencing, a shed, and an organic vegetable and herb garden off the kitchen patio enhance the home's country appeal.
Despite its serene setting, The Blacksmith is ideally located—just minutes from farmstands, orchards, cideries, and wineries. Hudson, Red Hook, and Tivoli are 15 minutes away, with the Taconic Parkway just seven minutes from your door and Amtrak accessible in 15.
Recent upgrades include ductless split units, a newer roof, updated windows, a UV water filtration system, new gutters, regrading, and insulation. A complete list of improvements is available upon request. The Blacksmith is a timeless Hudson Valley retreat, rich with character yet updated for modern living.
