What's around 1017 Veterans Way

About this property

It's the one you've been waiting for all summer. This two-bedroom Phoenicia cabin has a wild heart and a way of inspiring wonder. Warm, intimate and filled with natural light, it opens to native gardens, a labyrinth circling the firepit and mountain views rising beyond. Set in a neighborhood that feels distinctly Phoenicia, just outside the village and around the corner from the mighty Esopus Creek, it occupies a particularly sweet spot - connected to community and village life, yet with gardens, mountains and water woven into daily life. Originally built in 1946 as a seasonal hunting cabin from a kit - with a manufacturer's stamp still visible in the attic - the house has evolved over the decades for comfortable year-round living while retaining the simplicity and character of an old Catskills cabin. The open floor plan centers around the living room and woodstove. The eat-in kitchen opens directly onto this space, as do the other rooms, creating an easy flow, while windows in almost every direction bring in abundant natural light. Delicious knotty pine paneling and original hardwood floors run through most of the house, giving it the warmth and authenticity that are increasingly difficult to find. Unexpected details include vintage 1940s metal kitchen cabinets and a pressed-tin ceiling in the generous primary bedroom. Thoughtful improvements include a beautifully renovated bathroom and a stackable washer and dryer. This is a house made for small pleasures - tea and a book beside the crackle of the woodstove, cooking while still being part of the conversation, or watching the seasons change through the many windows. Outside, the cultivated and the wild intermingle in a wonderfully informal naturalistic garden beneath a canopy of enormous mature trees. Native and pollinator-friendly plantings unfold with the seasons, from bleeding hearts in early spring to black-eyed Susans and wood asters later in the year, alive with hummingbirds, butterflies and other visitors. The mature trees and layered plantings give the property a surprising sense of privacy and enclosure, while glimpses of the mountains beyond keep it connected to the larger landscape. The labyrinth and its central firepit create an unforgettable centerpiece. There are places to garden, gather and eat outside, as well as quieter corners for reading, drawing or simply spending time among the wildflowers and feeling free. The separate studio has been fully finished and heated, with a wall of windows facing the gardens and mountain views. Filled with natural light, it feels almost like a room within the garden - an especially appealing spot for an office, workshop, creative pursuits or simply a space of one's own. And then there is Phoenicia itself. The village's restaurants, shops and lively small-town life are a stone's throw away, while the trout-filled Esopus Creek is just around the corner for legendary fly-fishing, swimming, or simply listening to the water rush by. Head across the nearby bridge toward Woodland Valley for a water and mountain view that regularly stops visitors in their tracks, or venture just a little farther to the Romer Mountain trailhead and into the Catskill trail system. Come winter, both Belleayre and Hunter Mountains are about 20 minutes away, making this an easy home base for ski days followed by evenings around the woodstove. Walk to the creek. Wander into Phoenicia. Follow the labyrinth, watch the garden change, then come in and put another log on the fire. There is always something here worth noticing. Perhaps that's the real magic of this cabin: it makes the everyday feel extraordinary.
