44 Autumn Ridge Rd, Saugerties, NY 12477

When Catskill Farms homes come on the market, they don't usually last long! This is a way to own a stylish, modern, well-built home - in a great location between Woodstock and Saugerties - without having to go through the building and landscaping process yourselves. The current owners also made incredible choices with their design details from the Schoolhouse Electric lights, the brass-handled kitchen cabinets, to the penny tiles in the bathrooms, so this is 100% move-in ready. The mid-century style house looks surprisingly small when you pull up in the driveway, adding an element of surprise and delight as you step from the entryway to the vaulted high ceilings, massive windows, and big open plan of the kitchen, living, and dining room. Two decks from this floor complete the connection to the beautiful natural surroundings. The master suite includes a full bath, walk-in closet, and large bedroom with windows looking out over the backyard and surrounding trees - and there is another full bathroom and bedroom on the same floor. The finished walk-out basement has a concrete floor, sliders to the bluestone patio, firepit, and playground these owners put in, and yet another generously sized bedroom and full bathroom. There is a good chunk of the basement dedicated to storage, the mechanicals, and a washer-dryer. Because everything is so new in this home, you can expect modern, efficient, easy living, including central air, an alarm system, and a heating/cooling system that can be controlled remotely to save on energy bills while ensuring the house is comfortable whenever you arrive. The house is set back from a private road with four Catskill Farms homes - and the location is just 10 minutes to the center of Woodstock or the Thruway entrance to/from NYC. It's very difficult to get a sense of how lovely this house is in pictures because of the feeling of space and light and being surrounded by nature, but this is the kind of place where time kind of stops and you let out a sigh of relief as soon as you pull up.
