(plus one special waterfront bonus!)
It’s the season of flannel, woodsmoke, and candlelight — when scrolling for houses somehow feels like self-care.
The Hudson Valley does “cozy” better than anywhere, and these homes are proof. Whether you dream of curling up by a fire, watching the snow from a big old farmhouse window, or sipping cocoa beside the river — these are the spots calling your name.
