In Upstate New York, an Artist’s Home in a Former Masonic Temple Asks $2.25M
Location: 57 Cold Water Street, Hillsdale, New York

Lot Size: 0.54 acres

From the Agent: "In the bucolic town of Hillsdale, the former Masonic Temple has been restored to its former glory and reimagined as an artist’s live/work space. Built in 1928, it is hedged, gated, and exceptionally private, centrally sited in the charming village. Inside, the space is ethereal and expansive, with 14-foot tin ceilings and large, steel casement windows that flood the interior with natural light and offer pastoral views of the surrounding hills. The majestic scale of the building is a delight to take in and can be attributed to its builders—the Masons were known for building with mathematical precision, understanding geometry and the power of form and proportion. This is both a piece of history and an architectural paragon."
The handsome brick-clad property is about a two-hour drive from Manhattan.
The main living areas are housed on the upper level and connected via an open floor plan.
Soaring ceilings continue into the kitchen, which has a wooden island.
The three bathrooms feature all-new fixtures and appliances.
"The building is currently set up as a spectacular artist studio and private residence," notes the listing agent. "In addition to plenty of parking, the property also has room for a pool."
