Surrounded by nearly 6 acres of pristine woodland directly abutting NY State Forever Wild land, the property feels like a hidden sanctuary—where creativity flows freely and nature is your nearest neighbor.

The home's contemporary design is both understated and striking, with clean lines and low-maintenance grounds that are alive with mature landscaping, artfully crafted stonework, and organic textures that ground the space in its natural surroundings. A private loop trail meanders through the trees, while thoughtfully placed outdoor spaces invite quiet mornings with coffee, afternoons in the barrel sauna, and evenings under the stars.

It offers the perfect place to pause, unpack, and let the day slip away, with plenty of room to stow everyday essentials in style. At the heart of the home, this central hub also features a discreetly tucked-away laundry and mechanical room, providing a dedicated space for organization and care—allowing the rest of the home to remain beautifully serene and effortlessly composed.

Thoughtfully designed with upgraded appliances, generous storage, and expansive counters, it's a space that inspires both everyday meals and elevated entertaining. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a grand, vaulted living and dining area—airy and inviting—where you can gather around a table for ten or unwind in a relaxed yet refined lounge space. Framed by oversized windows and sliding glass doors, the room invites in breathtaking seasonal mountaintop views and an abundance of natural light. There's a sense of serenity here, as if nature itself is part of the decor—sunlight filtering through the trees, dancing across wide-plank floors and textured finishes.The home's thoughtful layout features two private bedroom wings, creating a tranquil balance between connection and retreat. Each wing offers a peaceful sanctuary to unplug, unwind, and feel enveloped by the stillness of the surrounding landscape.
