Though Tim Hutton says he didn’t get into acting because of his movie actor father, Jim Hutton ("Where the Boys Are," "Bachelor in Paradise"), sometimes you can’t hold the talent down, whether inherited or not. Though his parents divorced when he was three and his mother moved him and his sister to the East Coast, he did go back to Los Angeles to live with his father at age sixteen. It was there at a high school play when Tim was bitten by the acting bug. Encouraged by both parents, he judiciously started out in television and by the age of twenty, became the youngest actor to win an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for the film, "Ordinary People." Since that time he has become one of Hollywood and television’s most successful actors and directors.

In 1990, Hutton purchased an historic 40-acre farm in Upstate New York’s Hudson Valley as a retreat. He bought it for $547,200 and did a complete, restoration of the property, including the original 1790 farmhouse. With all authentic details thoughtfully preserved, the farmhouse now has radiant floor heat and an additional five fireplaces for staying warm and cozy through the cold New York winters. He also added a new kitchen, still with period details, and the house has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, den, and a wide side porch running the full width of the home. The gently rolling grounds consist of streams, pastures, board fencing, a huge four-story post-and-beam barn with two garage bays and a caretaker residence with two bedrooms and bath. In addition there is a separate studio with open floorplan, kitchen and full bath along with an in-ground swimming pool and open air cabana with a fireplace.

Academy Award-winner Timothy Hutton’s historic retreat only an hour from New York City, now for sale and priced at $1.895 million.
