A Catskill Premier Listing:
One of the few last remaining large acreage private land-holdings of the area…this legacy estate is the pinnacle of perfection with a total of 279 ACRES of unspoiled beauty and dramatic vistas of the Catskill Mountains and Pepacton Reservoir Valley! From the minute you turn off the town maintained road…to drive down a beautiful tree-lined and stone walled private driveway (originally known as Hidden Treasure Road)…you will get your first glance of lovely MEADOWS, majestic FORESTS, mountain STREAMS, and magical VIEWS. As you travel along…past an original BARN…you will have an immediate sense of the history of this property and the vision of the current owner to have built such an amazing home on THE, end-of-the-valley, PREMIER SITE of the area. You will come to the last curve in the road…and then…the Estate House will appear…picture-perfect…on the crest of a hill…overlooking a beautiful spring-fed POND…and out to the most incredible PANORAMIC VIEWS you have ever seen…at any time…I guarantee it!
The house…as you would expect… was designed to literally enjoy…virtually “soak-in” all the surrounding glory of the site and its lush views. A soaring two-story atrium living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, exposed oak beams and massive hand-crafted FIELDSTONE FIREPLACE create the center of this home. A rare EUROPEAN KACHELOVEN separates this gathering room from an open kitchen-dining room with terra cotta tile floors, granite countertops, and custom-built in cherry & maple cabinets. All rooms look out to the one-of-a-kind, take-your-breath-away view!
This is a home with a floor plan created for large entertaining…with family and friends. There are 5 bedrooms and 3 baths. A corner windowed bedroom on the main level is currently used as a “work inspiring” STUDIO/OFFICE. The upstairs level is divided into 2 wings…featuring a separate MASTER SUITE RETREAT on one side…including a dramatic tiled bathroom with 2-person whirlpool tub…and then a 2 bedroom – 1 bath GUEST WING on the other side.
Many details complete the unique qualities of this home…including gorgeous maple & cherry crafted floors through-out, distinctive built-in cabinets, dramatic lighting fixtures, 6-zone radiant heat, 2-car drive-in garage space and separate/large ARTIST’s POTTERY STUDIO.
Also available…BUT, only with the sale of the Estate Home…is an adjoining 97.23 separately deeded acres with a renovated 1800’s GREEK REVIVIAL FARMHOUSE…also with an amazing view…priced at $595,000!
It's a great time to Buy...if you know where to look!
