427 West Saugerties Road, Saugerties

Nestled in the heart of the Blue Mountains in West Saugerties, this spectacular 16-acre parcel features the breathtaking 17-foot Schalk's Falls, created by the Plattekill Stream. A natural landmark long admired by travelers, the waterfall dominates the approach to the property and remains one of the most captivating sights in the region.

A historic building known as the West Saugerties Community Club still stands proudly on the land, retaining its original wood floors and charming wainscoting. Believed to date back to the mid-1800s, the structure originally served as a chapel. Nearby, an antique red barn and a spacious modern two-car garage add both character and functionality to the property.

The main house, built in the early 1900s and lovingly maintained by generations of the same family, features 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a pull-down attic, and a stone foundation basement. The living room frames views of the mountains and the falls, while the kitchen connects to a formal dining room. A separate den with side yard access offers potential for a first-floor bedroom. Step out onto the newly painted deck to fully take in the roar and beauty of the falls.

A long, mowed meadow beside the house glows with fireflies on summer evenings, adding to the enchanting atmosphere. Winding trails lead through a hidden wilderness filled with ancient bluestone outcroppings and streambeds smoothed by time. An old quarry road descends to the stream, where three estuaries converge in a magical woodland setting. The property follows the Plattekill Stream along one edge, offering private access to this serene natural feature.

This historic setting offers unmatched beauty, with panoramic mountain views and a sense of timeless wonder.

Please note: Do not drive into the driveway without an appointment. The house is occupied and security cameras are in use.
