New Paltz, New York, in Ulster County, is a little over a two-hour drive from the city. It's a thriving college town, thanks to SUNY New Paltz, and outdoor enthusiasts can find lots to do here. There's Mohonk Mountain House, a sprawling 1869 Victorian resort where you can try winter activities like snowshoeing and ice-skating, or just chill in the spa. Other New Paltz highlights include Historic Huguenot Street, a living history museum that shows how New Paltz's first settlers lived; proximity to several state parks, including Minnewaska State Park and the Mohonk Preserve; and a number of wineries, farms, and art galleries.

If any of that sounds appealing to you, consider this three-bedroom, two-bath modern house at 11 Van Kleeck Ave., now on the market for $419,900. The house, built in 1984, was inspired by minimalist Scandinavian design, and has clean lines and lots of light-colored wood.

The living space has an open plan, with big picture windows and recessed lighting.
