ABOUT THE PROPERTY
2 Bed โ 1 Bath โ 1448 Sq Ft โ 0.65 Acres
The gravel crunches softly beneath as you pull into the driveway, the Catskill air carrying the scent of pine and the promise of a slower pace. Ahead, a charming cottage waits, its wraparound porch inviting you to pause for a moment before stepping inside.
You can almost imagine another era hereโa simpler time when evenings stretched long and neighbors waved from their front porches. Yet as you open the door, it's clear this home has been thoughtfully reimagined for modern living.
Sunlight spills across the original hardwood floors, drawing you through the open-concept main level where each space flows naturally into the next. The farmhouse-inspired kitchen, complete with butcher-block countertops and an authentic antique farmhouse sink, opens to a welcoming dining area made for lingering meals and meaningful conversations. Just beyond, the cozy living room creates the heart of the homeโa comfortable gathering space where family and friends can stay connected whether they're preparing dinner, sharing stories around the table, or settling in for a relaxing evening. Large windows fill the space with natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout the day.
In the bathroom there is a stunning antique vanity and vintage soaking tub that can transform everyday routines into moments of relaxation. Here, a hot bath feels less like a necessity and more like a ritual.
Downstairs, the finished walkout lower level offers space to make your ownโan inviting recreation room, a cozy movie lounge, a place for guests to unwind, or simply a retreat after a day spent exploring everything the Catskills have to offer.
Outside, the backyard provides room to gather, garden, entertain, or simply enjoy the quiet beauty of the surrounding landscape. As the sun begins to dip behind the hills, the wraparound porch becomes the perfect place to relive the day's adventuresโa morning hike through the forests surrounding Mongaup Pond, an afternoon spent browsing the shops and cafรฉs of Livingston Manor, or an evening concert under the stars at nearby Bethel Woods, the legendary site of Woodstock.
Life here is about finding the perfect balance between adventure and relaxation. Spend weekends casting a line into the famed waters of Willowemoc Creek or the Delaware River, kayaking across pristine mountain lakes, discovering local breweries like Catskill Brewery and Upward Brewing, or enjoying dinner at one of Sullivan County's celebrated farm-to-table restaurants. In the winter months, nearby skiing, snow tubing, and four-season recreation ensure there's always something to explore.
What makes this home truly special is that behind its storybook charm lies the confidence of extensive renovationsโfrom the roof and siding to the insulation, lighting, septic system, and more. The character has been lovingly preserved while the major updates have already been completed, allowing you to simply arrive and enjoy.
And while the surrounding region feels like a world away, local shops, restaurants, and everyday conveniences are just a short walk from your front door.
Whether you envision it as a weekend retreat from city life, a full-time residence surrounded by the natural beauty of the Catskills, or an income-producing getaway that visitors will remember long after their stay, this cottage offers more than a place to live. It offers a place to slow down, reconnect, and create lasting memories in one of New York's most beloved mountain destinations.
Your Catskills story begins here.
