536 Mount Guardian Road Ext, Bearsville, NY 12409

Welcome to The Birchtree Chalet. Nestled in one of the most desirable enclaves of Woodstock NY, this property reflects its name in the leafy shadows of the glorious Mount Guardian. This lovely furnished curated home sits on 4 landscaped acres of Catskills beauty, with a seasonal running brook outfitted with occasional fairytale-like bridges. Located off of a private road in an area of fine homes, this enchanting 2 bedroom, 2 bath chalet-style house features an upscale gourmet kitchen with terracotta hued Tuscan tile floors, fully-stacked and ready for chef-created meals. The farmhouse-chic dining area is open to the kitchen, under original exposed wood beams with an expansive picture window framed by the Japanese Maple overlooking the magical leafy property. It's the ideal spot for a morning coffee or an unhurried dinner. The open plan white-wash beamed living room consist of leisurely sitting area, entertainment set-up and an artisanal pool table with all the accessories. The expansive living area leads onto a wraparound deck with breathtaking seasonal mountain views. You will be enjoying outdoor meals on that deck (and you will find an awesome stainless steel Weber grill to help you with those) well into the snowy months, surrounded by whispering trees, chirping birds and the view of gorgeous birches (the property's namesake). The main floor features a newly renovated designer bathroom with marble rain-shower and river rock flooring. Another newly renovated Italian rustic tiled modern bath on the second floor is conveniently located between the two bedrooms. The spacious primary bedroom has its own balcony, perfect for morning sun salutations with birds or the nightly show of lightning bugs. Both bedrooms are equipped with top-of-the-line split heat/AC units, allowing you to keep the temperature to your ideal standard. Second bedroom features a picture-window overlooking magnificent greenery. It can equally be ideal as a WFH set-up as the sleeping unit is modular. Parking for one car in the separate garage, crafted to sit within chalet theme, is included in the rental, as well as the use of the washer/dryer in the basement. The grounds are lovingly landscaped and impeccably maintained to preserve the character of the area. You will love the jewel of a hiking trail that curves just steps away from the house, and for the real adventurers there is a magnificent Overlook Mountain trail just minutes away. When the mood strikes, you are just a few minutes drive from Woodstock Village with charming shops and restaurants (all available for take-out or delivery as well). And if you're up for a short scenic drive, it will take you to the ever-popular Phoenicia Diner. The newly renovated Bearsville Theater Complex is literally at your doorstep with a new addition of the excellent Nancy's of Woodstock Artisinal Creamery scooping out beautiful handmade creations.
