"The collaboration with NevelHaus marks Pacaso's first foray into both new development and New York, We've had many buyers ask us since we launched in late 2020 when we're heading to New York and we are really excited and eager to respond to that demand with the first Pacaso in a first-of-its-kind collection of luxury homes in the historic Hudson Valley."

- Pacaso CEO and Co-Founder Austin Allison

The Pacaso home comes fully furnished and professionally decorated.
