Welcome to your Catskills escape. Just two scenic miles from the beloved hamlet of Phoenicia, this sprawling ranch offers over 1,900 square feet of effortless one-level living surrounded by mountain beauty and year-round adventure. Whether you're searching for a weekend retreat from the city or a full-time upstate lifestyle, this home delivers the perfect balance of comfort, privacy, and convenience. Inside, an open and inviting layout creates an easy flow for both everyday living and entertaining. The spacious kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring solid wood cabinetry, a breakfast bar, and an expansive dining area ideal for gathering with friends after a day exploring the Catskills. Just beyond, the warm and welcoming living room is anchored by a striking stone wood-burning fireplace -- the perfect setting for snowy winter weekends and cozy mountain evenings. Skylights and oversized windows fill the home with natural light, creating a bright, airy atmosphere throughout. The generously sized primary suite feels like a private retreat, complete with a walk-in closet, whirlpool tub, and space for a reading nook or quiet sitting area. Two additional bedrooms and a second full bath provide flexibility for guests, a home office, or creative studio space. Set on a full acre of usable land framed by mature trees and perennial landscaping, the outdoor spaces are designed for relaxed Catskills living. Enjoy slow mornings on the covered front porch, summer dinners on the expansive rear deck, or evenings under the stars with mountain air all around you. With direct access from both the kitchen and primary suite, the deck seamlessly extends the living space outdoors. A heated oversized two-car garage with electric and a wood stove offers an exceptional space for hobbies, workshops, gear storage, or year-round projects, while the paved level driveway provides ample parking for guests and recreational vehicles. Perfectly positioned along the scenic Route 214 Byway with breathtaking views of the Stony Clove Pass and Creek, this property places you at the center of everything that makes the Catskills so desirable -- hiking, skiing, fishing, swimming, biking, and exploring the vibrant mountain towns nearby. Conveniently located just 2.5 hours from New York City and along the Trailways route between Phoenicia and Hunter, this is an ideal escape from city life without sacrificing accessibility.
