Excellent value is what you will discover in this 1 of a kind artistically hand hewn log home situated on a secluded corner lot that borders NY State lands so building is not permitted in the back of the house. Nestled in the heartlands of the Catskill Mountains, a short 2 hour drive from NYC, accessible to Woodstock, Phoenicia, Belleayre Mountain, Hunter Mountain, and Windham Mountain. This designer home features a center stone chimney with a gas cast iron fireplace, new kitchen appliances, new washer/dryer, and a loft overlooking the living room. From the front porch you will enter into an open concept living room, dining room and kitchen with a unique kitchen island and a pantry. Down the hall is a full bath with a laundry area and a guest Bedroom. Exit the dining area to the back deck, that has more privacy than you can imagine. The second floor features a large loft area - second living room with a master bedroom, full bathroom, jacuzzi, and a third bedroom. There is a finished basement with a separate office/ recreation area, and another Bedroom, a new furnace HWBB, and a whole house water filtration treatment system. For additional comfort there is a Mitsubishi mini split that provides heat and A/C. Original owner of this home, having purchased it while a local artisan builder was still putting his finishing touches on the home, so it has never been on the open realestate Market. Having lived in this lovely home for the last 20 years, it has been joyful to share this home with friends and family, and we have cherished our time here. The peace and quiet of the winter mountains, the songs of the bird sanctuary in the back of the house during the spring, with the changing mountain view colors of the fall leaves, and the night skies of dancing stars all summer long makes this home truly a magical experience. .
