Originally built in the 1800s and professionally redesigned by an interior designer, this light-filled 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home blends original hand-hewn beams with elevated modern finishes and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Two spacious ensuite bedrooms--one on each level--offer ideal flexibility for guests, rental income, or multi-generational living.

The open-concept living and dining space is anchored by a cozy wood-burning stove and surrounded by oversized windows that frame the natural beauty of the Catskills.
Step outside to the expansive, freshly painted deck--perfect for entertaining, dining, or unwinding with sunset views over your private pond and rolling mountain landscape.

EV charger-ready for added convenience.
