Property Description

SUN-FILLED CATSKILLS CONTEMPORARY ON 14.5 ACRES IN THORNAPPLE RIDGE At the end of a quiet cul-de-sac just minutes from Margaretville, this light-filled contemporary sits on 14.5 acres across three separate parcels, with not another house in sight--even year-round. The setting feels removed yet well situated: Margaretville is about 10 minutes away and Andes about 15 minutes away. The main level features soaring cathedral ceilings and an expansive kitchen with extensive wood cabinetry, granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, opening to generous living and dining spaces centered around a raised-hearth fireplace. A dramatic wall of south-facing windows fills the home with natural light, captures the changing seasons, and frames the surrounding landscape. The oversized main-level primary suite features southern exposure, a walk-in closet, and an ensuite bath. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and a full bath. The walk-out lower level provides approximately 800 square feet of flexible space--ideal for a game room, studio, home office, or gym--with sliding doors opening onto a shaded deck, plus laundry and utility space. The land is as distinctive as the house. The home sits in an elevated clearing with mountain views, while a path leads to a broad open meadow with panoramic Catskills views. The third parcel offers mature hardwood forest and separate access from Miller Road. Together, the three parcels provide a beautiful mix of open meadow, woods and mountain landscape, with room to explore, garden, gather around the firepit or simply enjoy the quiet. Owners also enjoy the amenities of the ThornApple Ridge community, including its community pool and private nature trail. A rare combination of acreage, abundant natural light, extraordinary seclusion and easy access to the villages, dining and outdoor recreation of the western Catskills--this is a home designed for enjoying the Catskills in every seasTon.
