Description

Behind a gate outside Narrowsburg, a long, circular drive opens onto 137 acres of woods, open lawn, and old stone walls. At the center sits a 1939 gambrel-roofed home, renovated in 2021 to open up walls and create a more contemporary feel. Inside, high beamed ceilings and hardwood floors carry through an open plan that takes in light from every side. The living area has a wood stove and a large picture window framing the trees. A split unit provides both heating and cooling. A dining area sits in a windowed niche between the living room and kitchen, and a second, cozier seating area is tucked by the front porch door. Painted wainscoting on the walls and ceiling gives the space a cabin feel. The redone kitchen has quartz counters, a peninsula with a pair of barstools, plenty of storage, and a door to the back deck. The first bedroom is on the main floor, with the full bath just across the hall. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms each have a recently renovated ensuite bath, plus closets, exposed beams, painted wainscoting, and great light. One bath has a tub, the other a walk-in shower; both are bright, with white tile and high-end fixtures. The laundry is on the first floor near the door to the attached garage. Heated and insulated, this one-car garage could easily become a game room, den, overflow sleeping space, or art studio, since the detached garage handles the cars. The Trex back deck looks out toward the fields, with a picnic table and grill for summer nights under the stars. The front porch is set up for a swing and morning coffee. The land is vast and invites exploration. Trails wind through the woods for ATVs, mountain bikes, or hikes, and there’s room for horses, gardens, and outdoor sports. The fire pit is where everyone gathers in the cooler months. A wood-fired sauna sits tucked against an old stone wall, overlooking a field. A whole-house propane generator keeps the lights on through winter storms. The detached three-bay garage has an unfinished space above, already plumbed for water with partial septic in place. It could become a guest house, a workshop, or an office, whatever the next owner has in mind. Main Street Narrowsburg, with its shops and restaurants, is only five minutes away. So is the Delaware River, for kayaking, swimming, and fishing. Callicoon is just 15 minutes away and has a lot to offer, with an Art Deco movie theater, restaurants and a farmers market
