Description
Nestled on 15 acres in the woods above the Rondout Reservoir, this contemporary Catskills retreat pairs a rustic exterior that settles quietly into its natural surroundings with bright, chic, and decidedly modern interiors.Inside, soaring ceilings, oversized windows, skylights, and hardwood floors bring light and nature into nearly every room. The main living space centers around a whitewashed fireplace with wood-burning stove, flanked by built-in shelves and framed by windows overlooking the treetops with seasonal glimpses of the reservoir beyond. A dramatic double-height entry flows into a glass-wrapped dining room, where the changing seasons provide an ever-evolving backdrop for dinner parties, long lunches, and gatherings with friends.The home's crisp black-and-white palette continues into the kitchen, while thoughtfully updated bathrooms add an elevated edge with clean lines and refined fixtures. The primary bedroom has a wood-burning fireplace of its own, bringing a little extra romance to chilly Catskills nights. An airy loft creates an ideal perch for a home office, media space, or reading nook.A third bedroom with its own private entrance and amenities offers exceptional flexibility. Create a private guest suite, artist's studio, creative workspace, or explore its potential for income-producing accommodations, subject to applicable approvals.Outside, an expansive deck makes summer dinners and entertaining easy, while the secluded backyard delivers the privacy and sense of escape upstate weekends are made for. A substantial workshop and two unfinished lower-level spaces offer plenty of storage, utility, and intriguing possibilities for whatever comes next. Down the hill, the Rondout Reservoir stretches between forested Catskills ridgelines, offering spectacular scenery and renowned trout fishing. Just beyond, the southern reaches of Catskill Park put some of the region's most beautiful wild landscapes practically at your doorstep. When you're ready to come out of the woods, there's plenty to explore from nearby from coffee, books, and cocktails on Main Street in nearby Ellenville to the restaurants, breweries, and boutiques on Main Street in Livingston Manor. Grahamsville keeps things refreshingly local and low-key, while some of the Catskills' best-loved small towns are an easy afternoon adventure away. Just about two hours away from NYC by car, yet a world away.
