Home to the century-old, and exclusive, "Ivy League" Tuscarora Hunt and Fish Club, the Mill Brook Valley is unarguably the most prestigious address in Delaware County's Catskills. This pristine estate is surrounded by 1600 acres of Tuscarora land and is optimally located just south of the Pepacton Reservoir (a beautiful walk to the reservoir) and north of the Beaverkill Valley, the renowned blue-ribbon fly fishing capital that attracts anglers from around the world. A preserved, conservation mecca, the Millbrook Valley is surrounded by the reservoir, is part of the Catskill Forrest Preserve, and is in the environmentally protected Catskill Watershed. This is nature at its finest... pure and pristine.

A short distance from Ulster County the property is at the southern edge of Delaware County, and is privately approached through field and forest, by a bucolic, seldom-used, seasonal road or a scenic town-maintained road that hugs the beautiful Mill Brook. A long winding drive, framed by massive, artisan-laid stone walls, leads past the converted barn to the 19th century Greek Revival situated high above the valley, affording breath-taking, long range Catskill mountain vistas. Sunsets are intoxicating from the large, southwest-facing, farmhouse porch.

There are 98 stunning photos attached, documenting the breadth and scope of this property, not a fish-eye or wide angle lens among them. No exclamation points needed, no excuses necessary, this property simply put is remarkable. No expense has been spared. 14.92 acres.
