Set on over 16 secluded acres with panoramic mountain views, this is the kind of Catskills property you've come upstate hoping to find--but rarely do. Private, peaceful, and surrounded by nature, it offers that feeling of complete escape... the kind you can't quite put into words until you're standing there. Fully and tastefully renovated in 2018 using top-grade materials, the home blends warmth, comfort, and thoughtful design throughout. The kitchen is designed for gathering, with an easy flow into the surrounding living spaces--perfect for entertaining, weekend visits, or simply being together without feeling crowded. Natural light fills the entire home, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere throughout. The living room features vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and two walls of windows that bring the outdoors in, with the front-facing windows perfectly framing the mountain views. A wood burning fireplace adds warmth and ambiance, making it just as inviting in the winter as it is in the warmer months. Just off the kitchen, a cozy den offers its own entrance to the deck, creating an ideal space to unwind, read, or step outside and take in the views. The first-floor primary suite provides ease and comfort with its own ensuite bath, while upstairs you'll find three additional bedrooms and a full bath, with plenty of room for guests, friends, or work-from-home flexibility. The partially finished lower level adds even more versatility, with a family room, laundry area, utility space, and direct access to the attached two-car garage. Step outside, and this is where the property truly sets itself apart. The views stretch for miles, the setting is completely private, and the land invites you to slow down and stay awhile. Gather around the fire pit under the stars, explore the acreage, or simply take in the quiet. A fully refurbished barn offers endless possibilities--studio, workshop, storage, or that creative space everyone talks about but rarely has. Located just minutes from Windham and within easy reach of Hunter, Hudson, Woodstock, and Catskill, you're right in the heart of everything people love about the region--skiing, hiking, mountain biking, antiquing, and farm-to-table dining. All of this, just two hours north of New York City.
