Description

The Harper House · Circa 1794 The Harpersfield/Stamford residence of Colonel John Harper - the town's founding namesake - represents one of the Catskills' most significant historic offerings and stands as a living record of regional heritage. Architectural enthusiasts will appreciate the Federal-style rear (circa 1794) and Greek Revival front (circa 1845), reflecting two eras of masterful craftsmanship. The home is an exceptional blend of architecture, history, and landscape. Its most unique feature: rare wall murals by LaMont Warner, head draftsman and designer for American Arts & Crafts legend Gustav Stickley, which transform the entry into a living work of art and offer a glimpse into the decorative arts of the early 20th century. The property beautifully balances history and modern living. Wide-plank floors, hand-hewn beams, original woodwork, and multiple fireplaces anchor the interiors with timeless warmth, while the Wolf-equipped chef's kitchen with Mission-style cherry cabinetry, custom granite farm sink, cedar-lined pantry, and Vermont Soapstone stove forms the heart of the home. Five bedrooms - including a newly finished two-room suite - and two recently renovated spa-like bathrooms (one with a sauna) ensure comfort and privacy for family and guests. Modern updates such as spray-foam insulation, a CWC septic, and high-speed fiber internet provide ease behind the scenes. Outdoors, the craftsmanship continues in stone: a sweeping bluestone patio with outdoor fireplace, dramatic hand-stacked retaining walls, and stone-capped steps embody the Catskills tradition of building with the land itself. Mature maples and curated landscaping frame 116+ acres of meadows, trails, and woodlands, while NYS Forever Wild land across the road guarantees preservation of the views. Outbuildings include a sugar sap house, original outhouse, ice house, and woodworking studio. An extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of Catskills history, designed for modern living. This is not simply a home but a legacy estate - a place where art, architecture, and nature exist in perfect conversation.Show Description
