Located at the end of a lightly traveled country road you will find a gem not to be missed. This charming newly constructed farmhouse was built on the foundation of the original late 1800’s home maintaining the same footprint and adding all of the amenities one expects with a well built contemporary home. The house was built by a respected local builder and attention to detail was given in every way. Enter the house through the newly added, generous mudroom to discover a light filled open space where kitchen, dinning, living and family room flow seamlessly together to create the perfect environment to enjoy with family and entertain. White washed tongue and groove walls throughout have been paired with hardwood floors and many large energy efficient windows to create inviting and exciting spaces. The kitchen has everything you need, stainless appliances, extra deep stainless sink, smooth soapstone counter tops and plenty of cupboard room. The beautiful hand crafted stone fireplace is the focal point from nearly every angle, it was built by a local stone mason who is respected for his craftsmanship and design. The custom designed central staircase is in perfect harmony with the different living spaces and creates a natural divider between the living and family room. A lovely half bath with vintage vanity and ceramic bowl sink is privately located down the hall from the kitchen. The large deck will extend your living space in the warmer months and it’s the perfect place for al fresco diners or an afternoon siesta in the shade of the tree canopy. On the second floor the master suite is all about space, light and peaked ceilings. While very spacious the room is also cozy and inviting, with great details such as a large walk in closet and sliding barn door to the master bath which is beautifully appointed featuring a new claw foot tub and a luxurious marble tiled walk in shower with rain shower head. The 2 additional bedrooms are generously sized and each have large closets. The guest bathroom is appointed with a walking shower and rustic tumbled marble tile. Other important details include upgraded electric, propane zoned heating, on demand hot water, new plumbing, high quality insulation, Anderson wood windows, and so much more, all new in 2014.
The 16.51 surveyed acres are level to gently sloped, with mostly open fields, stone walls and shade trees. Property borders on hundreds of Forever Wild NYC land, what a great bonus! The land is a blank canvas waiting for someone's personal touch and vision; plenty of room for fruit trees and gardens or for pets to run free. And when the sun gets high and the days are long enjoy a refreshing swim in 1 of the 2 ponds or simply lounge and relax under the shade of the tree canopy. Two barns and a 2 car garage offer ample space for storage, livestock, or parking.
Close to everything the Catskills have to offer, ski centers, world class fishing and hunting, kayaking, swimming holes, great hiking, farms & farmers markets, fantastic eateries and so, so much more!
