Salvato Mill
Salvato Mill
Brimming with rich history, Salvato Mill is an 18th century stone mill that was lovingly converted to a home in the 1960s. Located in Salt Point, NY and set on 11 private acres, this water mill home is a striking testament to time that’s only 2 hours north of NYC. Cared for by two generations of the Salvato family and listed on the National Historic Register, the mill was renovated by an architect and interior designer duo and beautifully decorated by a stylist/set designer featuring mid-century antiques and original art from the family’s collection.
This 2-story property comfortably sleeps up to 8 people with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and large open-concept living and dining rooms, perfect for a group of friends. Experience waterfall views from nearly every room and epic swimming in the warmer months. In addition to the distinctive water feature, the mill also features original stone walls that provide so much character and warmth—the connection to history and nature is around every corner.
Enjoy your morning coffee snuggled in the kitchen’s breakfast nook, lounge by the fireplace, or tickle the ivories on the charming old grand piano. Upstairs there’s a cozy sitting room that opens out to an original 18th century courtyard where you can grill up lunch before going for dip in the private waterfall. If you can bear to part with this majestic property for a few hours, we recommend visiting the nearby towns of Millbrook, Rhinebeck, Millerton, and Sharon, CT, all filled with charming antique shops, restaurants, and cafes. Cap off your evening back at Salvato Mill with drinks by the outdoor fireplace surrounded by fireflies and all the history from these storied walls.
