A 200-year-old Hudson Valley church is on the market and comes with some great extras like a pipe organ, antique pews and a yard filled with dead bodies. There have been some interesting Hudson Valley real estate listings over the years, but perhaps none quite as curious as a church that recently hit the market in Dutchess County, New York. We told you about the home in Wappingers Falls that came with its own replica of the oval office , the Peekskill house that has a separate cottage hiding in its attic and the home of a former Muppets artist that looks like something out of Fraggle Rock .
While all of these homes have their own unique selling features, none of them have a cemetery. Historic Hudson Valley Church Goes On The Market The historic Dutch Reformed Church in Hyde Park recently hit the market and is being offered by Keller Williams Realty Partners for $1.4 Million.
Built in 1824, this is the first time in its history that it's been put up for sale. The church property includes the 200-seat church, a functional antique organ, a rectory built in the late 1800s and a cafeteria. Oh, and it also comes with a cemetery.
According to the listing, an adjacent .28-acre parcel is included in the sale that features the historic burial ground. For prospective owners who don't want a yard full of bones next to their business, there are most likely lots of regulations and rules when it comes to owning a cemetery that would make it almost impossible to make any changes to that part.
