Description
Perfectly tucked into a storybook forest in a pretty hamlet (Mount Tremper) in a town (Shandaken) at the heart of the Catskills, this secluded 1.65-acre compound offers TWO serene mountain retreats. These two thoughtfully renovated sanctuaries have what you’re looking for - rustic charm AND the modern convenience of new mechanicals, insulation, plumbing, and electric - all updated in the last few years. Let’s explore! First there’s the charming pine-sided 1-bedroom, 1-bath cottage. Its highlights include a spacious kitchen with a gas range and butcher block countertops, a bright living/dining area, a large bedroom, a full bath, and gleaming hardwood floors throughout. There is even a laundry room with a slop sink to keep the floors gleaming! Just outside, the bluestone patio has striking mountain views. Further down the long gravel drive is a two-story, cedar-sided, 3-bedroom, 2-bath abode offering rich oak floors throughout and a warm, organic vibe. The first floor has a large bedroom, full bath, laundry room, and kitchen with ample storage. The great room, anchored by a wood-burning stove with a stone surround, is perfect for winter evenings. Upstairs, are two more bedrooms and an additional full bath, ideal for hosting the guests who will inevitably flock to your forest hideaway! Outside, it’s so very peaceful. There is sound courtesy of a babbling, seasonal creek and a charming courtyard for stargazing. There is also an additional stone foundation that’s ready for conversion into a shed or studio and a detached two-car garage with electric. Despite the seclusion, this special property is just 15 minutes from Woodstock’s lively Tinker Street and year-round adventure spots like Belleayre Mountain Ski Center, the Ashokan Rail Trail, and Tremper Fire Tower - to name just a few. Whether you live in one home and rent the other or use one as a guest house, you’ll find a way to use these great spaces! Just over two hours from NYC, this low-maintenance homestead offers the perfect balance of solitude and suitability. Schedule your private tour today!
