Amenia median price rises 11% as home sales climb in December

AMENIA — Home prices in Amenia reached their highest level of the year in December, capping off a 2025 market that saw both rising values and increased sales activity.

The median sale price for a single-family home in Amenia was $389,000 in 2025, up 11% from $351,000 in 2024. The number of house sales also increased to 29, up from 25 the year before.

December’s trailing 12-month median marked the high point of the year, with every recorded residential transfer that month closing above the $389,000 annual median. Three single-family homes sold in December.

Despite rising prices, Amenia remains more affordable than much of northeastern Dutchess County. In 2025, the median single-family house price was $529,000 in Pine Plains, $661,000 in Washington, $662,500 in Stanford and $427,000 in North East.
Inventory in Amenia remains limited. In mid-February, 12 single-family homes were listed for sale — roughly a five-month supply — including five priced under $400,000 and three listed above $2 million. Among them was a publicly listed 6,500-square-foot lakeside home in Silo Ridge offered at $8.9 million.
