For the buyer with vision and a willingness to put in some effort, this is a truly worthwhile opportunity to restore a special Catskills property. The home has been somewhat neglected over the past two years and will need attention and some work to bring it back to its original condition. What makes that investment especially appealing is the exceptional setting, distinctive Alta Log design, generous acreage, and thoughtful features that provide an outstanding foundation for creating a beautiful mountain retreat.
Set on 5.65 wooded acres in a peaceful corner of the Catskills, this three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home is conveniently located near Woodstock, Phoenicia, Stone Ridge, and the Ashokan Reservoir. A winding driveway through mature hemlock trees leads to a home designed to embrace its natural surroundings, with abundant windows, soaring wood-clad ceilings, exposed joinery, and spacious, open living areas.
The heart of the home is a dramatic great room with vaulted ceilings, a woodstove set into a substantial stone hearth, and a wonderful sense of connection to the surrounding landscape. A deep front deck overlooks the tranquil woodland setting and offers ample space for outdoor dining, gardening, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
The main level also features a large and versatile home office with access to both a private patio and the backyard, along with two bedrooms, a full bath, an impressive entry, and a powder room.
Upstairs, the expansive primary suite feels like a private retreat tucked into the treetops. A generous window seat takes advantage of elevated views of the property, while multiple seating areas add to its relaxed, cabin-in-the-sky character. The primary bath has been opened up and is ready for renovation, offering the opportunity to create a space entirely your own.
The property also offers an impressive collection of amenities, including a barrel sauna, plunge pool, finished lower level for recreation and entertaining, two-car garage, garden, wine cellar, and numerous outdoor spaces. There is a wonderful sense of privacy here, yet the area's restaurants, shops, culture, hiking, swimming, and other Catskills attractions are all within easy reach.
With its beautiful natural setting, unique architectural character, and wealth of existing features, this property offers the rare chance to bring a distinctive Catskills home back to its full potential.
