Secluded Mountain House surrounded by Catskills Park | House in Elka Park
4 Bedroom House in Elka Park
NOTE: NO PARTIES OR GATHERINGS PLEASE
This is a beautifully restored 1850s farmhouse nestled in the heart of the Catskill Nature preserve. At an elevation of 2200 feet, and bordering the 275,000 acres of Catskills National Park, you're surrounded by idyllic mountain views across the Platte Clove. The main floor is an open floor plan that’s great for socializing. There are four bedrooms + two full baths upstairs and one half bath downstairs. The wrap-around porch comes set with antique rocking chairs and outdoor dining table, a fire pit, and in warmer weather, there is much good swimming to be done in our pond, or at the waterfalls across the street.
The house is full of beautiful design moments — exposed, hand-hewn, reclaimed barn beams, wooden floors, a clawfoot tub in the guest bath, a gorgeous slate-lined walk-in shower in the master bath, and antique furniture pieces, many of which are the original pieces that came with the house when we bought it. Enjoy an indoor wood-burning stove, and an outdoor hot tub, sauna, pond, fire pit, incredible star gazing, and so on.
We also have a back-up generator, HRV heat recovery ventilation system, and radiant floor heating (both of which make the house eco-friendly and very comfortable). We've spent many perfect winter weekends up here and have worked out a prompt plowing service with our neighbor so we're never snowed in.
There are no other houses in view from the property. Nearby are Hunter Mountain ski resort (less than 15 minutes away), Tannersville (nearby bars, restaurants, grocery), Saugerties (just down the mountain —home to Miss Lucy's famous french toast), and Woodstock is only a few away. The trailheads for Huckleberry Point, Indian Head, Sugarloaf, Lookout Mountain, and more are literally boarding the property, right outside the front door!
In the spring, summer and fall, it's about 20 minutes off the NY State Thruway, exit 20 (Saugerties). In the winter months, it’s a few extra minutes, winding through an incredibly scenic Catskills Preserve, right past Kaaterskill Falls. And is only 8 miles from Hunter Mountain Ski Resort.
