Discover the perfect blend of modern comfort and serene seclusion in this 2,342 sq ft, 3 bed/3 bath contemporary Cape. Located in the heart of Windham yet offering complete privacy, this home is a tranquil retreat. Renovated in 2005, it features a chef's kitchen, a comfortable living room with a wood-burning fireplace, and French doors that lead to a stone patio ideal for entertaining. The main floor also includes a library-office, an enclosed heated porch great for getting comfortable with a book and a cup of tea, and a laundry room for added convenience.Upstairs, the luxurious master suite impresses with vaulted ceilings, a Juliet balcony overlooking this mini estate, and skylights that flood the space with natural light. You'll also find the other two bedrooms and a spacious hall bath. Radiant heat beneath tile and wood floors adds comfort and style. Set on over 2.5 acres, this property is a nature lover's paradise, boasting a covered porch, landscaped grounds, and a peaceful pond for lounging and picnics.Outbuildings include "The Red House," an unfinished 2-story house currently used for storage, offers plenty of potential for transformation. The structure offers a spacious layout; it's a blank canvas ready for updates and your creativity. There is also a pool house and a smaller storage shed. My favorite is a cozy seasonal cabin, complete with electricity and a woodstove, it's a charming space for relaxation or creativity. Inside, you'll find a comfortable bed, a sitting area, and a desk perfect for a studio or quiet retreat. The inground pool, surrounded by lush greenery, provides a tranquil setting for relaxation or hosting gatherings.Just minutes from the Windham Path and the town's best restaurants. Close to skiing, golf, hiking, mountain biking, and the laid-back Catskill scene with wineries, breweries, and farm-to-table dining, this property offers a peaceful escape with endless possibilities.
