Property Description

Storybook charm (c.1950) just a mile from the Woodstock Village Green; with stream frontage! A rare treat in the village. Step up onto an elegant rocking chair porch with it's unique arched red door of this cape style personality. An adorable enclosed foyer (mud room) delivers you to a light, airy, simple lifestyle. You are immediately greeted by an open floor plan where a huge living room and gracious dining room (with a breakfast bar and additional kitchen cabinetry) flow together seamlessly. The updated kitchen and half-bath make entertaining inside or outside a snap. Access to the screened porch out the sliding glass doors make this easy living. The spacious living room is anchored by a large corner fireplace where you can relax apres-ski, or hunker down to read a book. Upstairs there are 2 large bedrooms with ample closets and plenty of room for a desk or in-home office. The newly renovated bathroom features a herringbone tiled shower/tub enclosure with a swinging glass door. Upstairs and down, you'll hear sounds of the stream and feel the privacy of nature. This is a magical and rare location that is right in town, yet feels like you are out in the woods. The house is sited down a driveway behind 2 other homes, separating it from the road, and it backs up to 2 streams and a calming wooded area. The streams meander by a large screened porch, deck, and picturesque pond. Over look your own piece of heaven while you dine al fresco on the deck just off the kitchen. This half-acre has room for a stream-side fire pit, garden, space for lawn games, or a place to relax and lounge in the sun. A full basement with laundry adds to the comfort and storage options. Easy-peasy, as you are a 2 hour drive from NYC. Or, drive up and leave the car in the driveway (the Trailways bus line can drop you off/or pick you up right in front of your new address). Experience and enjoy the many local chef owned restaurants, groovy stores, and fun town events. Only 1/4 mile to the Bearsville music complex; with world-class music at the Theatre, many summer outdoor festivals, dining at 2 great restaurants... or just stop in for a refreshing ice cream. Great proximity to hiking, skiing, and everything the Catskills has to offer! Get comfortable in this ''move in and relax'' situation!
