Welcome home to a peaceful and renovated escape that is just minutes to Livingston Manor’s Main Street. This location offers the best of both worlds with the home quietly tucked away in nature with private deeded lake access - yet only a 5 minute drive to Main Street for all of the great offerings in town. A winning combo for easy weekends or everyday living! The home naturally falls into two “wings” with lovely spaces for communal gathering and for privacy and quiet. A thoughtful renovation allows the property to be both elegant and cozy - with modern upgrades and clean lines seamlessly blended with curated remnants of the home’s original charm. The central and airy living and dining space has high ceilings and leads out to the wrap-around deck that overlooks the property. Sunshine streams in through the glass sliders and it’s easy to picture all of the summer barbeques you will host. This space also has one of the home’s bedrooms, a flexible loft area, a large mudroom with a laundry closet, and a full bath. A more private, nestled away part of the home offers two additional bedrooms and a beautiful, renovated full bath. Another mud room - you can’t have too many in the country - complete with stylish tile, connects to the garage. Surrounded by trees for absolute privacy, this retreat sits far off the road on 5 acres with a sprawling lawn and woods to wander. The wrap around deck features an outdoor shower and is an ideal spot for watching the morning fog disappear or dining al fresco. This home’s deeded access to Trojan Lake is .3 miles down the road. Spend your summers sunning on the brand new dock that offers easy access for swimming, paddle boarding, canoeing or kayaking! Livingston Manor is fun! Its bustling Main Street has an endless supply of good food and great businesses to support. Sunshine Colony, Threshold, The Walk In, Kirin Thai Market, The Kaatskeller, Jitterbug, Upstream Wines, Spruce, Drooz, Homestead, and Seasons are some favorites but the list goes on and on! The recently built Catskill Art Space has an incredible calendar of shows and great programming with Artist’s talks, yoga classes, dance performances, and children’s workshops. The Farmer’s Market on Sunday is always a treat and even if you don’t buy a thing you will enjoy cruising up and down Main Street! Roscoe is only 10 minutes away and Jeffersonville is 20 - both offering even more special spots for dining and shopping. This private oasis offers more than one way to enjoy nature but should you decide to venture from home the area offers many nearby fishing spots (it’s a world class fly fishing destination!), lakes, and hiking trails. Located just about 2 hours from NYC.
