What's special
Charming 1930s Catskills cottage located on desirable Watson Hollow Road in low-tax Olive. This authentic cottage has wood floors, exposed beams and vintage details and built-ins throughout. There is a large, sunny living room with a Timberline wood stove to keep you warm on a snowy winter's night. Downstairs has an open-plan feeling with the dining room connecting to the living room, the kitchen & breakfast bar. The two upstairs bedrooms share a full bath with both a shower and a clawfoot tub. Adjacent to state land, this property consists of 3 acres with a flat lawn surrounding the house and a pretty fern-covered hillside behind. Sit on the stone front porch facing the quiet treelined road, and listen to the sounds of the creek. Located just outside the village of West Shokan, minutes from hiking trails, swimming holes, a public swimming pool, waterfalls, the Ashokan Reservoir, and only 25 minutes from the charming villages of Woodstock & Phoenicia. Just down the road from the famous Peekamoose Blue Hole (listed as one of the best swimming holes in America) and 30 minutes to both Bellayre and Hunter Mountain ski resorts. Property includes over 400 feet of stream frontage across Watson Hollow Road.
