Rising above the Hudson Highlands with commanding views and unmistakable stone architecture, Dicks Castle remains one of the regions most recognizable and storied landmarks. A Moorish style castle fashioned after Alhambra in Granada, Spain and situated on 26 wooded acres, the exterior features turrets, arches and courtyards surrounded by sculptures and stone walls well over 100 years old. This residence offers an exceptionally rare opportunity: the ability to live inside a piece of Garrison history while enjoying space, privacy, and the contemporary comforts expected of a modern luxury home. This particular home is unlike any other in the castle. At approximately 2,700 square feet, it is the only unit with three full bedrooms and three full baths, a distinction that sets it apart immediately. The interior design elevates the castles character with thoughtful updates-tile floors from India with radiant heat, soaring volumes of space, and a layout that blends openness with intimate architectural moments. The heart of the home is a dramatic great room anchored by a fully functional Reynard fireplace and framed by 23-foot ceilings. From this vantage point, two floor-to-ceiling doors and windows open to sweeping panoramas of the Hudson River Valley and the lights of the United States Military Academy at West Point. Few homes in the Hudson Valley offer a view with this level of scale, continuity, and emotional impact. The primary bedroom suite looks out over the great room, giving it a lofted sense of retreat while maintaining connection to the architecture and the views beyond. Two additional bedrooms are generously sized, each appointed with Jacuzzi bathtubs, making them ideal for guests or extended-stay.Every room is positioned to take advantage of natural light and the castles unique lines. The floor plan supports both quiet day-to-day living and sophisticated entertaining, with thoughtful storage, a calm material palette, and an overall feeling of permanence that only legacy structures can provide. Exterior living is equally compelling. A private deck extends the living space outdoors, complete with a propane-fueled fire box perfect for warm evenings under the stars, watching river traffic drift below or the night-time glow of West Point across the valley.There is no other property like this. Inventory within Dicks Castle is scarce, and homes with this scale, bedroom count, and vantage point are almost never available. For buyers who want something that stands apart architecturally, historically, and emotionally this is a chance to own a singular residence in one of the Hudson Valleys most iconic landmarks.
