Tucked away at the end of a long private driveway, this nearly 5,000 square foot home on six acres feels like a world of its own. Mature trees and thoughtful landscaping give the property a magical, nestled-in-the-woods quality, with Japanese maples, lilies, and native plantings throughout, plus a sculpted hedgerow out back with a touch of Alice in Wonderland charm. A heated in-ground pool sits within its own leafy enclave, and the fenced backyard, in a finish chosen to disappear into the landscape, keeps both gardens and dogs happily contained.
Inside, the main level is open concept done right. The layout flows naturally from space to space, so the living room, dining areas, and kitchen each feel defined without ever feeling closed off. The kitchen was built for people who actually cook, with abundant counter space and storage, Thermador appliances including a professional cooktop with pot filler, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. A formal dining room handles the holidays, while a generous eat-in area off the kitchen is where everyday life happens. The living room's wood burning fireplace keeps things cozy once the Catskills turn cold, and a massive light-filled rec room offers endless possibilities: media room, playroom, or the home library of your dreams. When the weather warms up, a large deck off the kitchen makes entertaining easy.
Upstairs are six well-proportioned bedrooms and three full baths. The primary suite is spacious and serene, with a walk-in closet and room to spare. Two staircases serve the second floor, a thoughtful bit of design that gives guests and family members their own sense of privacy.
Downstairs, the full basement with high ceilings holds a genuinely impressive wine room. An attached two-car garage opens into a roomy mudroom where everyone can drop their gear, and storage abounds throughout the house.
The property sits high above Creek Locks Road, with public access to the Rondout Creek less than five minutes away, perfect for anyone who wants to drop a kayak in the water on a whim. Uptown Kingston's shops and restaurants, Rosendale's charming main street, and New Paltz are all close by, and New York City is just under two hours away.
