Set along a quiet no-thru road just off one of the Catskills' most scenic byways and only five minutes from Phoenicia, this spacious, authentic 1970s mountain home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths on 1.22 acres, mountain views, a heated in-ground pool, and exceptional indoor-outdoor living. There is something timeless about long summer afternoons by the pool, outdoor dinners on the deck, and evenings by the fire as the seasons change. With generously proportioned rooms, abundant gathering spaces, and seamless connections to the outdoors, the home offers a comfortable, highly livable layout designed to be enjoyed year-round.
An oversized kitchen with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, slate floors, and direct access to the deck flows naturally into the dramatic Great Room, where soaring ceilings, warm knotty pine paneling, walls of glass overlooking the pool and deck, a striking brick fireplace, and a cozy corner wood stove combine to create the warm, inviting character of a classic Catskills lodge.
Elsewhere, the home's thoughtful layout offers flexibility for full-time living, entertaining, remote work, and overnight guests. The primary bedroom, spacious den/guest area, and an additional large bedroom all open directly onto the pool deck, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow that makes the most of the warmer months.
The expansive deck, outdoor shower, and heated in-ground pool create an easy extension of daily life, whether enjoying breakfast outside, entertaining friends, or simply watching evening light filter across the property. Pool set-ups of this size and setting are an increasingly uncommon find in this part of the Catskills, and with mountain views in the distance, it's the kind of place where afternoons drift into evening, conversations linger, and summer seems to last just a little longer.
Established landscaping, mature trees, and classic stone walls frame an unusually generous expanse of level, usable land - an increasingly rare combination in this part of the Catskills. The property enjoys picturesque mountain views, with the potential for even wider vistas through selective clearing, while the level grounds offer exceptional flexibility for gardens, a fenced dog run, a studio or workshop, a play area, or simply room to spread out and enjoy. There may even be the opportunity for a future guest house or accessory structure, subject to municipal approvals.
Multiple living areas comfortably accommodate remote work, creative pursuits, extended stays, and gatherings large or small, making the home equally suited to full-time living or weekend escapes.
Just minutes from Phoenicia and convenient to Belleayre and Hunter Mountains, hiking, fishing, and countless outdoor adventures, the location offers easy access to everything that draws people to the Catskills - though some of the very best days may be the ones spent right at home.
