for $995,000 with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, 1 half bath. This 2,726 square foot home was built in 1987 on a lot size of 21.2.
This bright and spacious home - once featured on the front page of the NY Times real estate section - sits on 21 private and mostly wooded acres with a pond, sauna, an incredible custom stone-clad wine cellar and access to a community pool and hiking trails. The property's four separately deeded lots border almost 50 acres of public, protected land, giving you incredible privacy as well as options for future projects. This secluded retreat is just minutes to Margaretville and 20 minutes from skiing at Belleayre and Plattekill.
The main level of the home boasts tall ceilings with sunlight streaming in through the skylights, which provide a dramatic view of the surrounding woods and sky. The stunning fireplace (built with stones from the Esopus Creek) is the focal piece of this home - situated in the double-height living room with refinished wood floors and multiple sitting areas. Nearby are the spacious dining room and well-appointed kitchen - with both a Viking and a Wolf oven, dishwasher, and deep copper sink. The private primary bedroom suite on the second floor gives you ample room for a king bed along with an ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower and slate tile throughout. On the ground floor are two more sunny bedrooms, a second full bath, a laundry room, and a large living area with built-in bookshelves that could make a great office, gym, or media room. Recent improvements include: refinished wood floors, new deck, boiler, washer/dryer, dishwasher, oil tank, hot water heater, and more.
Surrounding the home is perennial landscaping, as well as wooded areas lush with ferns and other native foliage. The deck off of the living room overlooks a generous side yard with a stone patio and fire pit, and a four-person cedar sauna with a new heating element is tucked underneath. Up a small hill from the home sits a beautiful custom wine cellar building with storage space for hundreds of wine bottles - and even more climate controlled wine storage in the detached two-car garage. A set of winding stone steps takes you through the trees down to the picturesque and serene pond. There is also a wooden boat shed for storing your canoe or paddleboards.
The shops and restaurants of Margaretville are minutes away and it's 30 minutes or less to Phoenicia, Bovina, Roxbury, and Delhi. You are also close to fishing in the East Branch of the Delaware River, kayaking in the Pepacton Reservoir, and some of the best ski mountains and hiking trails in the Catskills.
