Nature Lovers Estate in Catskill Park with 131 Acres to Wander and River FrontageQuiet country roads follow the path of the Neversink River, leading you to a winding driveway that guides you through the trees and into the mountains to reveal a magical 131-acre hill-top estate. Inspired by Swedish farmhouse design and brought to life by famed architect Peter Pennoyer, this unique home offers a true nature lover’s retreat. Tucked into Wildcat Mountain, with a storybook setting, this sprawling getaway offers a thoughtful pairing of form and function. Warm wood accents are complemented by clean, modern lines and there are many unexpected moments to fall in love with. Sunlight streams in through the oversized windows, which keep the mountain views in sight at all times, quietly reminding you of the surrounding beauty. The heart of the home is the architect’s signature rotunda, showcasing a stunning library that overlooks the dining room below, and exuding a sense of history and quiet elegance. A charming cantalevered sun room adjoins this space and would be an incredible writing room or art studio. There are two spacious “primary” bedrooms - one on each level - each with king size proportions and elegant en suite full baths. The remaining bedrooms and another full bath can be found upstairs offering plenty of space for guests to comfortably spread out. A cozy living room with a wood burning fireplace leads out to a spacious deck overlooking the property. Three sets of french doors create a wall of windows making this room ideal for year round enjoyment and blurring the lines between inside and out.This home has been meticulously maintained by the current owners and has benefitted from many lovely upgrades, including a full renovation for each bathroom. The basement has super high ceilings and leads right out to the yard - adding a flexible space well appointed for an exercise room and additional storage. Nestled into the rolling hillside for maximum privacy, nature abounds just outside your front door. Established, private hiking trails dot the expansive property and the 131 acres includes water frontage on the East Branch of the Neversink River. Flowering trees and a wall of mature hydrangeas provide a full season of exquisite blooms and beauty. Set inside Catskill Park with incredible access to the best nature the area has to offer, this special location offers incredible opportunities for fishing, hiking and skiing - Belleayre is only 40 minutes away! The Neversink River is world famous for its fly fishing and Sundown Wild Forest has amazing swimming spots. 25-35 minutes on gorgeous country roads gets you to fun destination towns like Livingston Manor, Kerhonkson/Accord, Hurleyville and Ellenville, providing great options shopping, dining and entertainment.
