Graced with a custom built contemporary home with 3 bedrooms and 2 full/2 half baths, with expansive and panoramic views of the Catskills, as well as a stone cottage reminiscent of a Hobbit House. For those seeking the recreational lifestyle, apart from a multiple of trailheads within a short drive, the Schohairie Creek, Stoney Clove, and the Esopus for the trout fisherman, or to ski and ride, Hunter Mountain Ski Resort is a five minute drive, and Windham Ski perhaps 15 minutes. This property is composed of 11 discrete parcels with over 2,000 feet of road frontage, primarily zoned Rural Residential, which allows a large variety of both permitted and special uses that would allow a fabulous palette of options for either the private compound or the commercial endeavour. Experience the best the Catskill Mountains can offer! This is one of the only large acreage listings available, this could be your only chance to buy this much acreage......
