A Private 27 Acre Catskills Retreat with Cabins, Waterfalls & Endless Possibilities! Tucked away at the end of a long private driveway behind a gated entrance, 379 Joel M Austin Rd offers a special combination of privacy, recreation, and natural beauty in the foothills of the Catskills. Formerly enjoyed as a seasonal family retreat and now utilized throughout the year, this meticulously maintained property feels like your own private getaway - yet remains just minutes from the conveniences of Cairo and the region's many destinations.
Nestled among the trees, the approximately 1,670 sq ft main home features 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath and 2 half baths across its split-level/1.5-story design. The inviting interior includes a spacious living area with access to a covered porch, a wood stove for cozy Catskills evenings, and a kitchen ready to serve everything from quiet weekends to gatherings with family and friends. Upstairs, a large bedroom opens to its own balcony overlooking the peaceful surroundings, complete with distinctive handcrafted heart railing details. An additional room off the bedroom offers even more flexible space.
But this property is about so much more than the house. Across its 27 beautiful acres, you'll discover 2 cabins, a 16' x 14' screened pavilion, playground, fire pit, tool and utility sheds, wood sheds, flagpole, expansive lawn, and a seasonal stream with waterfalls. There is plenty of room to gather, explore, entertain, relax by the fire, or simply disappear into the peace and quiet of your own wooded retreat.
Despite its wonderfully secluded setting, you don't have to leave modern convenience behind - cable internet is available at the home. And when you're ready to venture out, the best of the Catskills and Hudson Valley is within easy reach: approximately 25 minutes to Windham Mountain, 30 minutes to Hunter Mountain, 20 minutes to Zoom Flume Water Park, and 15 minutes to Dutchman's Landing Park and the Hudson River. Golfers will appreciate convenient access to Catskill Golf Resort, Thunderhart and Sunny Hill, while Cairo's growing business district - with coffee houses, breweries, bakeries, eateries and ice cream shops - is just minutes away.
Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, country escape, family compound, or your own private Catskills sanctuary, 379 Joel M Austin Rd is the kind of property where memories are made for generations. Explore the virtual tour, floor plans, aerial photography and dedicated multimedia property website to experience everything this extraordinary 27-acre retreat has to offer.
