Description
Tucked away on a serene mountainside in Margaretville, this cozy chalet offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Set on over 5 wooded acres, the home feels private yet remains easily accessible. The main living area is bright and airy, anchored by a wood stove—ideal after a day on the slopes or trails—and large picture windows fill the space with natural light, framing tranquil woodland views. The fully equipped open-concept kitchen and dining nook are perfect for entertaining or relaxed family meals. Just off the living area, two bedrooms look out to the forested backyard and a full bath has retro charm. Upstairs, a third bedroom offers treetop views and there is a cozy loft for unwinding. Enjoy the elevated balcony to read, stargaze, or take in the quiet of nature. Recently renovated throughout, the home features a new septic system, roof, flooring, and expansive picture windows. Inside, fresh paint complements the vintage tile, while carefully chosen wallpaper adds just the right touch of character. The outdoor spaces are a true extension of the home. The large and private deck acts as an open-air living room nestled among the trees—perfect for slow mornings, lazy afternoons, or starlit evenings. It leads to an open backyard surrounded by evergreens and wildlife, great for outdoor play or picnics, while the woods provide shade and privacy. Three sheds offer plenty of storage for gear and tools. And for those craving peace and proximity to nature, the property is directly adjacent to over 300 acres of protected NYC watershed land, guaranteeing an uninterrupted wilderness buffer and a deep sense of seclusion. Just 5 minutes from downtown Margaretville, the home is ideally located for year-round adventure: shop for fresh produce and crafts at Pakatakan Farmers' Market, sip coffee at Café Marguerite, or unwind with a glass of wine at Oda. Skiers will love the proximity to Belleayre and Plattekill, while warmer months bring hiking, biking, swimming, and fishing at nearby rivers, ponds, and endless Catskills trails. Whether hosting friends, escaping for solitude, or building a rental portfolio, this turn-key home is a peaceful, comfortable haven in the heart of the Catskills.Show Description
