Restoration Opportunity in Historic Snedens Landing The Hagen House, circa 1780. The Hagen House is a two story frame cottage resting on .82 acres in the storied community of Snedens Landing, one of the Hudson Valleys most historic and sought after areas. A 1968 report prepared for the Historical Committee of the Palisades Library notes the house has long been regarded as one of the oldest dwellings in Snedens Landing and recounts differing traditions about its earliest construction, including one account suggesting a small portion of the home may date to around 1710 and was later expanded in the eighteenth century, while another attributes the home to Stephen Hagen around 1798, whose family name became associated with the property. The home retains many characteristics of an early Hudson Valley cottage including wide plank floors, two fireplaces and simple architectural lines reflecting its long history. The property should be understood as a restoration opportunity rather than a conventional renovation project. The house remains largely in its original and time worn condition and is being sold strictly as is. Best suited for a historically minded buyer seeking a true restoration, the offering presents a rare chance to revive and steward an early home within one of the Hudson Rivers most storied enclaves. Located within the Orangetown Historic District, exterior alterations and restoration plans are subject to review by the Historic Areas Board of Review, a process intended to preserve the architectural integrity and historic character of this special community. Snedens Landing has long attracted artists and writers and those seeking a peaceful country setting within easy reach of Manhattan. The Hagen House presents a rare opportunity for thoughtful restoration within one of the Hudson Valleys most historically rich settings.
