    17 High Meadow Road, Copake: $3,500/mo.

    Finding a bumper crop of new rental properties from Brownstoner’s Upstate listings is a bit like Christmas in August. And who else but us would tittering with joy over new rental listings? Perhaps you would. Let’s find out by showing you a bunch of cool stuff we found in Columbia County (east of Hudson, north of Dutchess County).

    Need lots of space, an in-ground pool, and a guest house for visiting friends and relatives? Then check out this 1800s Greek Revival farmhouse on a whopping 90 acres in Copake about a half-hour from the MA/NY border. It’s a stunner, alright, and although the monthly rent is a little pricy for us, it’s a huge house with 6 bedrooms and oh, those million dollar views. Beds: 6. Baths: 4.5. Square Feet: 4,000. Lot Size: 90 acres. Distance from Brooklyn: 2 hours, 21 minutes.

    287 route 17 chatham ny

    287 Route 17, Chatham: $1,500/mo.

    Here’s a good rental price for what you’re getting: a 4 bedroom, 1,500 square foot farmhouse. But there’s a reason it’s inexpensive, and that’s because it’s located near Columbia County’s northern border. It’s practically in the Capital District, or certainly close to it, so one might consider it a wee bit remote. And as we all know by now, the further north you go, the more prices head south. Beds: 4. Baths: 1.5. Square Feet: 1,530. Lot Size: 4 acres. Distance from Brooklyn: 2 hours, 36 minutes.

    360 State Route 9H, Claverack: $1,400/mo.

    Don’t let the lackluster exterior fool you. Inside, this cottage in Claverack is bright, well-maintained, and cozy (in the good way, not in the lame realtor-speak way) as can be. It’s also on a full acre about 10 minutes from Hudson. It’s available September 1st and tenant pays for electricity, heat, and trash pick-up. Beds: 3. Baths: 1. Square Feet: 1,200. Lot Size: 1 acre. Distance from Brooklyn:  2 hours, 20 minutes.
