About this home
A log home + Guest cottage + Pool
Set high above the Durham Valley Scenic Byway on 2.5 private acres, this exceptional Catskills property offers one of today's most sought-after combinations--a welcoming log home, a stone guest cottage, and an in-ground pool--all surrounded by the beauty of the Durham Valley. Travel this designated scenic route through rolling farmland, historic barns, and sweeping mountain views before arriving at a property that feels perfectly at home in its surroundings.
Inside, exposed logs, timber accents, and walls of windows bring the outdoors in, while the updated kitchen with granite countertops opens to inviting gathering spaces where rich wood tones create a warm, comfortable atmosphere. The spacious first-floor primary suite features a gas fireplace, Jacuzzi tub, and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms share an updated bath with a walk-in tiled shower, while a unique loft currently used as a fourth sleeping area offers additional space for guests, a home office, or hobbies.
What truly sets this property apart is the separate two-bedroom stone cottage. Rich with character, it features cobblestone walls, warm knotty pine interiors, etched stained-glass accents, a full kitchen, full bath, and a wood stove that makes it especially inviting year-round. It feels like something out of a favorite novel, yet offers all the comforts of home. Whether used for guests, a private home office, creative studio, or rental income opportunities, it provides the flexibility today's buyers are looking for.
Outdoor living was clearly part of the vision. Expansive decks capture the changing mountain views, while the beautifully positioned in-ground pool feels like a natural extension of the landscape, framed by exposed ledge rock and open skies. Recent improvements, include a cement patio surround, and custom pool cover, complete this favorite gathering place.
Practical features include a metal roof, reliable cell service, high-speed internet that makes working from home easy, an automatic Generac standby generator, a new storage barn, and abundant storage throughout.
Located just 15 minutes from Windham Mountain Club and the Village of Catskill, you'll have easy access to skiing, golf, hiking, restaurants, shopping, the Hudson River waterfront, and the New York State Thruway.
If you're searching for a full-time residence, weekend escape, or a property that offers lifestyle with investment potential, this is a rare opportunity to own a unique and versatile Catskills property in one of the region's most scenic valleys.
