About This Home

As of January 2026

Perched high atop the trees, this spacious Catskill retreat offers peace, beauty, and room to breathe. Set on 23 private acres up a long tree-lined driveway off a scenic country road known for its waterfalls and swimming holes - this property combines wide-open treetop views with sought after privacy, direct access to the Kaaterskill Creek, a cleared buildable site overlooking a pond, and convenient proximity to Amtrak in Hudson. Thoughtfully laid out and filled with natural light, the home is well-maintained and move-in ready, with plenty of opportunity to make it your own. Sunlight pours through large windows that frame the surrounding treetops and expansive sky. The spacious living room opens to a wraparound deck - the perfect spot to enjoy morning coffee while taking in the sunrise. A pellet stove adds warmth and character during cooler months, while the eat-in kitchen and separate dining room make everyday living and entertaining effortless. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a relaxing retreat with tranquil views and a jacuzzi tub. Three additional generously sized bedrooms and a full bath complete this level, along with the convenience of a second-floor washer and dryer. The walk-out basement adds practicality and peace of mind, featuring a two-car garage, storage rooms, and a utility area with a new boiler and hot water heater. A whole-house Generac generator ensures year-round comfort and reliability. Outside, nature truly takes center stage. Wander along private walking paths and ATV trails, gather around the fire pit under the stars, or follow your own trail down to the Kaaterskill Creek for kayaking, fishing, or simply relaxing by the water's edge. The cleared, buildable site overlooking the quiet, bass-filled pond - complete with a well and electric service - is ready for a future guesthouse, studio, or workshop. Located just 15 minutes from downtown Catskill, 25 minutes to Hudson, and 30 minutes to Hunter Mountain and Woodstock, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, convenience, and natural beauty - a peaceful upstate escape that's easy to reach and hard to leave.
