Set among nearly seven acres of forest, this house is secluded yet doesn’t sacrifice convenience. Main Street is a quick 8-minute drive away. Once you're here, though, that's easy to forget. The curved private driveway sets the tone immediately. Unseen from the road or its neighbors, this is a private retreat. A convenient carport was built into the house, allowing a quick and easy way to lug in the groceries should the weather not cooperate. It doubles as firewood storage. It's the kind of considered detail that reveals how the whole house was thought out. Inside, a welcome bench and a bluestone floor entry provide a place to take off shoes. A coat closet is there at the ready. A stone-faced wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room area, and above it, a stained tongue-and-groove wood ceiling slants upward to a generous height. Wide-plank wood floors also add architectural detail to the room and the house, giving the home a country house character. The kitchen is open and functional: a vented Wolf gas range, quartz countertops, and a mix of open shelving and closed cabinetry. Bosch appliances - dishwasher, refrigerator, and range hood - give the kitchen a sleek look and dependable functionality. A dining table for six sits comfortably between the kitchen and the living room. Glass sliding doors allow the greenery and light into the space. They open onto a hero of a large deck that earns its keep in all seasons. In summer, the surrounding forest closes in gently — the sounds here are swaying trees and birdsong. Doesn’t take much to envision grilling and hosting friends out there. Take in the fall foliage come autumn. Watch the snow fall in winter. Get a buds-eye view of spring popping. The first-floor bedroom comfortably accommodates a king bed, with large windows on two sides that keep it bright and connected to the surrounding trees. A tiled bath/shower bathroom sits just alongside. Downstairs, the lower floor offers a different vibe. The den is equally suited to a favorite series, a reading chair, or whatever else the mood calls for. Shiplap ceilings, wood paneled walls, and wide-plank wood floors create a cottage-like feel. Walk-out glass doors provide direct access to the back yard. The spacious second bedroom again offers flexibility – a king-size bed or a smaller bed, plus an office? The renovated second full bathroom has a tiled, glass-enclosed shower. The unfinished portion of the lower level provides ample storage and houses the on-demand Bosch washer and dryer, hot water heater, and furnace. For the times you just don't feel like cooking, or fancy a cooling dip in the Delaware River, run out of wine and cheese, or want to take in some art, head down to Narrowsburg.
