Historic 1780 Home In Snedens Landing - The Hagen House

The Hagen House is a two-story 18th-century frame cottage set on 0.82 wooded acres in the historic hamlet of Snedens Landing, one of the Hudson Valley’s most preserved and atmospheric communities just outside Manhattan. Long regarded as one of the oldest homes in the area, portions of the structure may date to the early 1700s, with later eighteenth-century expansion. The house retains original period character throughout, including wide plank floors, two fireplaces, hand-scaled rooms, simple early American architectural lines, and a distinctive spiral staircase originally sourced from Bill Murray’s nearby Snedens Landing residence. Much of the home remains in an untouched, timeworn condition, offering authentic historic texture rarely found in preserved locations. The surrounding property provides a secluded woodland setting with natural landscape views typical of the lower Hudson River region. Snedens Landing itself is known for its quiet historic roads, stone walls, mature trees, and artist-community atmosphere, making it a versatile backdrop for period productions and rural Northeast settings. Located within the Orangetown Historic District and approximately 30 minutes from Manhattan, the property offers the look and feel of a remote historic countryside location with convenient production access from New York City.
