A 70+/- ACRE HIGH-QUALITY COUNTRY HAVEN!

First time offered, exceptional, newer builder-owned residence on nearly 70 enchanting acres nestled in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains, less than three hours from the George Washington Bridge. The home, built in 2006, feels like a PRIVATE OASIS, set back from the road on a mostly open, level lot. Relax on either of the two back decks and listen to the soothing sounds of Ouleout Creek, which flows year-round and is famous for trout fishing. Across the stream are woods for exploring, hunting, and trails for hiking. A versatile, open floor plan boasts spectacular views from every window. The Great Room encompasses the kitchen, dining room, and the living room, featuring maple floors, striking beams, and tongue and groove ceilings that soar to 19 feet, and is the perfect space for large gatherings or casual get togethers. Quality, quality, and quality was the focus for the homeowners when they meticulously designed and built the home. The kitchen boasts gleaming granite countertops, hickory cabinets, and mirror-like stainless steel appliances. The loft overlooks the Great Room and is perfect for a yoga studio, home office, rec room, or a cozy den. The spacious first-floor primary suite has two walk-in closets, a deck offering a striking hillside vista, and a luxurious bathroom. A second bedroom on this level serves as a craft room. A designated room for a home office looks out to the 1,700 feet of road frontage spanning the front of the property. Cell service and satellite internet is strong at the property and fiber optic internet is available at the road. The ground level of this home includes two bedrooms, a full bathroom, a second large living room, laundry room, heated pantry, and ample storage. With the addition of a kitchenette, this space could be a great in-law apartment. Stay warm and cozy in the colder months with a state-of-the-art 7-zone economical radiant heat system with two sources - oil and coal. Coal is an energy efficient and economical way to heat this 4,700 sq ft home. In the warmer months, stay cool and comfortable with central air. Enjoy peace of mind with the hard-wired 40,000-watt propane-fired backup generator. The generator automatically starts within 5 seconds of losing power, and then automatically powers down when power is restored. The 3-bay attached garage is fully equipped with heat, electric, and plumbing. Thinking bigger? There is an opportunity for expansion on the 70+/- acres with three wells to support growth. Start a farmette, or offer the property as a short-term rental. Come experience how this country haven checks all the boxes: privacy, newer & high-quality construction, stream, room to roam, views, and access to services & amenities.
