About this property

This exceptional Catskills estate captures everything you look for in a mountain retreat, beautifully balancing historic charm with tasteful upgrades across more than 16 acres of pristine land. The property serves as a true sanctuary, anchored by a crystal-clear pond near the house that provides a peaceful backdrop for both quiet relaxation and lively outdoor entertainment. The expansive grounds invite endless exploration, featuring a large dedicated garden area, two separate rolling hay fields, a functional and sizable detached storage barn, and a newly-built chicken coop. Inside, the solid and meticulously-maintained home showcases original, rich wood details seamlessly integrated with a full chef's kitchen. The ground floor layout is designed for effortless daily living, offering a convenient half bath, a practical mudroom and laundry space off the kitchen for coats and boots, and a versatile bonus room currently utilized as a music studio. In the main living area, a cozy wood-burning stove and a custom built-in bookshelf create a warm, inviting focal point while a picture window and sliding doors provide unobstructed and spectacular outdoor views. The overall integrity extends to the lower level, where an impressively dry basement has been transformed into a fully-equipped home gym. Upstairs, the second level hosts a spacious primary bedroom retreat complete with a sleek, contemporary ensuite bathroom, alongside two additional bright bedrooms and a well-appointed full bath. The third level reveals a unique, lofted top floor that serves as an ultra-private fourth bedroom or quiet workspace. Located just five minutes from the heart of downtown Stamford and a convenient two-and-a-half-hour drive from the George Washington Bridge, this versatile property is perfectly suited as a peaceful weekend getaway or a permanent full-time residence.

Questions to ask before you buy

Good questions for any home near the slopes.

  1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
  2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
  3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
  4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
  5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
  6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
