The main level features a spacious living room anchored by a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, a large dining area ideal for hosting groups of 10+, and a chef’s kitchen with butcher-block countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an island perfect for gathering. Sliding barn doors open to a balcony with lake and mountain views—an instant guest favorite. This level also includes a bedroom and a fully tiled bathroom with a soaking tub. The mostly finished lower level adds significant rental flexibility and sleeping capacity. Accessible from both inside and multiple exterior entrances, it includes a recreation or game room, a large bedroom with a cozy bed nook, pellet stove, sitting area, and deck access, plus an additional guest room and a second full bath.

The outdoor space is designed for guest enjoyment, with room for grilling, lounging, and evenings around the firepit under the stars. Located within Catskill Park and under two hours from NYC, the home is close to the Neversink and Rondout Reservoirs, Willowemoc and Sundown Wild Forests, Peekamoose Blue Hole, and world-class fishing, hiking, and outdoor recreation.
