862 County Rt.2 (Kripplebush Rd)

Welcome to 862 Kripplebush Road! Nestled on 2.5 acres of whispering pines and mature plantings, discover this sturdy one bedroom home. Built almost 75 years ago, the structure is solid and has stood the 'test of time'! Available for the first time, and lovingly lived in by the original owner till she was 103! This parcel was part of a larger trac of land purchased by her family, and used as farm back in the late 1800's. The 18.5 acre lot wrapping around this property is also available for sale. So now we have some history, lets get to the house..... Originally built as a one-bedroom ranch home, mindfully planned to easily add more bedrooms if needed from the end of the hallway, where you will find a window! The eat-in Kitchen still has the original pine cabinets, and Formica counter; large pantry is an added storage space! Living room is large for a home of this size, boasting a great opportunity to catch the summer breeze with the cross-ventilation. Although the house does need some updating, everything is functional. Care was given to the major functions of the home. In 2024 a new electric panel box was added, 40-year roof shingles in 2022, and the Burnham V8M Boiler, which supplies your hot-water baseboard heat, is estimated to be about 12-14 years old. Hot water is supplied by an electric (2010). There is a garage, but sellers are not guaranteeing the structural soundness of that entire building. Come take a look, whether you are looking for just a small place, or looking to renovate and add on to create a Country Estate, like the ones just around the corner on Bone Hollow Road, I invite you to take a look. Stone Ridge and Kerhonkson are just minutes away. Come enjoy the clean fresh air and plenty of open space the Catskills have to offer! The adjoining vacant 18.5 acre parcel is also available for sale MLS# 20264907.
