I have owned and stewarded this amazing property in Gardiner, NY for 24 years. I bought it as a young single mama, and my boys and I have grown together in this nurturing place (that was a wreck when we got it!) We managed to fix it up with family and friends, and settle into a nurturing and inspiring love-fueled life here. I studied anthropology, writing and film, am a community weaver and creative, have long been an entrepeneur (as a restaurant owner for 7 years), then (for 13 years) a shop owner of Fair Trade, handmade items from around the world. I also co-founded a craft collective that I co-facilitated for 4 years. Along the way, I have continued to produce, create and direct site-specific theater productions-- and garden on this beautiful land! I am a writer, and offer Breathwork sessions, retreats and events here. I LOVE the Hudson Valley for its wild natural beauty, friendly earth-minded people, and the well of creativity it is. I am sad to sell this property but we must embrace change and new adventures await...
Month-to-month rental only possible at this time. Since the property is on the market, flexibility will be needed in terms of end-game/vacating space. You would be given one-month's notice, but that may be many months from now. Stay extension is possible until the property changes hands. (Potentially longer.) The cottage would also need to be kept in view-ready condition so a tidy, thoughtful person is a must to honor very occasional viewings. Cost in listing here is BEFORE utilities and fuel. TOTAL, including electricity, internet, water, garbage, snow plowing, and fuel, is usually $3200 (has been more in the past) but DISCOUNTED to $3000 now (including all extras mentioned above) to accommodate flexibility and expectations of tidiness and occasional access by potential buyers. (With notice and shoes off.) One-month deposit required, plus first month's rent. One-month deposit required, plus first month's rent. Cottage must be left in immaculate condition, or a $200 cleaning fee will be charged. One reference and a video/ FT call or visit requested. Driver's license required.
