544 Briscoe Road

Set on 5+ wooded acres on a quiet road in Swan Lake, this two-bedroom, one-bath A-frame is about as close to a perfect nature retreat as it gets. Surrounded by the forest and Briacoe Lake just across the road, this adorable home is designed for exactly what it sounds like — a genuine escape. The A-frame does its job beautifully: dramatic angles and a layout that makes smart use of every inch. Large windows in the living room pull the forest in, making the nature outside feel like part of the room. The kitchen has a proper sitting area, and the bedrooms feel peacefully separated from the rest of the home. Step outside to an open yard with a grilling area, and wooded acres to roam. Jeffersonville is five minutes away and covers all the essentials — Sullivan Sundries, Bloom Coffee, Deli Cat and Slug Wine for coffee and specialty provisions, and Peck's Market for the week's groceries. Livingston Manor, Roscoe, and Callicoon are all 15-20 minutes away, each offering great breweries, farmers markets, bagels worth the drive, and Bethel Woods Center for the Arts — built on the grounds where Woodstock took place, and still one of the best places to catch live music in the Northeast is an easy 12 minute drive. All under 2 hours from the GWB. Currently operating as a successful short-term rental, with financials available upon request. Whether used for a personal escape or an income-producing asset, or both, this property is a rare and ready find in one of the Catskills' most sought-after pockets.
