200-Acre Estate with Two Homes, Barn, Ponds and more
Tucked into the rolling hills of the Western Catskills, this 200-acre estate with two homes is a ready-made retreat with two ponds, two streams, hot tub, custom-designed sauna, and large barn. Both homes have been thoughtfully updated, blending modern convenience with timeless charm. Wander through open meadows, explore wooded trails, or dream up the next chapter for this remarkable landscape. The development options are endless - continue as a turn-key rental, build a family compound, board horses, start an agricultural project or farm, or create a unique retreat venue.
THE MAIN HOUSE
This late-1800s Greek Revival farmhouse greets you with pilastered corners, a metal gabled roof, and original wide-plank floors. On the first floor, sunlight pours into the dining room throughout the day, making it an ideal gathering place. The cozy living room features a warm pellet stove and serene views of the property. The updated kitchen includes a new Janska range/stove, wood floors, and generous storage. On this floor is also a renovated full bath, laundry room, office with woodstove, and easy access to the back deck where you'll find your own home spa including hot tub, sauna, and outdoor shower. Upstairs off the landing - you’ll find two large and one smaller bedroom (both with gorgeous wide plank flooring) and another renovated full bathroom. Outside, the fully fenced backyard is a true outdoor oasis: a stone patio, fire pit, chicken coop with electric, garden beds, views of the nearby stream and mature landscaping that gives full privacy. It’s the kind of space that invites slow mornings and late-night stargazing. This home also has multiple attached garage/storage spaces. Additional improvements include a new forced air system (heating and cooling), hot water heater, whole house water filter, pellet and wood stoves, upgraded 200 amp electric service and automatic whole-house Generac generator.
THE GUESTHOUSE
Built in 1925 and beautifully renovated just a few years ago, the guesthouse is filled with natural light and character including a double height living room, original wide-plank floors, a pellet stove for winter coziness, and renovated bathrooms. A first-floor bedroom and full bath add easy single-level living. This floor also has a large and sunny living room, eat-in kitchen and half bathroom. Upstairs, two bright and spacious bedrooms and another renovated full bath create a perfect setup for guests or extended stays. Additional improvements include new plumbing, roof, windows, siding and updated electric 200 amp service and automatic whole-house Generac generator.
THE PROPERTY
With 200 acres to explore, expand, or simply enjoy, the possibilities here are extraordinary. Adjacent to the main house lies a buildable parcel with its own pond and existing infrastructure (electric, well, and septic). For a more secluded setting with mountain views, choose from multiple potential sites across the property. The landscape flows between open fields and serene forests, threaded by stone walls and a stream that offers quiet moments of reflection — or a refreshing dip in summer. A huge barn with a recently updated roof stands ready for its next purpose. And perhaps the most magical spot for long hangs and gathering towards the middle of the property: the large swimming pond with dock making it ideal for paddling, fishing, or an afternoon float.
THE LOCATION
While the property feels like its own world, you’re just minutes from the charming towns of Stamford, Hobart, and Jefferson, where you’ll find shops, cafés, and everyday essentials. Outdoor lovers will appreciate easy access to the West Branch of the Delaware River, multiple trail systems, Cooperstown and skiing at Windham, Hunter, or Plattekill — all less than 50 minutes away. And best of all, it's under 3 hours from the GW Bridge, making this an effortless escape from NYC.
