296 Bush Road, Stone Ridge, NY 12484

Located on a beautiful country road and nestled in the woods, this solid log home is a country charmer. The vivacious ferns, dark woods, and red metal roof impress you at first glance and greet you with a big "Welcome!" The interior channels laid-back comfort and rustic warmth. The common area has an open floor plan with a classic center hall layout: the kitchen and dining area are on one side of the staircase, and the living room is on the other. The two sides meet behind the stairs, where a full bath and the laundry room situate. A screened porch and extended open deck run the entire length of the back side of the house, which elevates the outdoor living to its best. Here you are in harmony with nature. If you are spiritual, it is simultaneously evoking and relaxing. You can let your thoughts flow or meditate. If you like to entertain, it is a perfect spot to have guests. Light up a deck-safe fire pit for smores or enjoy a few drinks. You can also imagine how many meals you will have right there. On the second floor, there are three bedrooms and a full bath. Like many a log home, this dwelling is energy-efficient, warmer in the winter, and cooler in the summer compared to a stick-built residence. The house also has a low profile with an 8-foot ceiling both upstairs and downstairs, notably budget-friendly in heating costs in the winter. There are also a whole house generator and a detached two-car garage; both will come in handy during winter. Six plus acres of land afford privacy and serenity, and the moderate distance from the main roads provides convenience. Lived in and cared for, this home is cozy, earthy, and practical. Fabulous location in the picturesque stone Ridge where well-kept stone cottages embellish the meandering country roads. Stone Ridge is a hamlet in Marbletown known for its eclectic art scenes, thriving local breweries, cideries, orchards, and vibrant farm-to-table food culture. An easy ride to Mohonk Mountain Preserves, Minnewaska Lake, Ashokan Reservoir, and Belleayre ski area. The world renowned climbing destination, The Gunks, is also in the area. Less than two hours from Manhattan.
