Description

This home started out as a one-room schoolhouse built in the late 19th century and was added onto and converted into a cute cottage offering 2 bedrooms and plenty of living space on a manageable 1.3 acres of land. The spacious wrap-around deck offers a private place to relax or entertain. A nice yard surrounds the home and the garage and shed provide plenty of storage space. A huge bonus is that it backs up to over 2,000 acres of Watershed Recreational land so you can step right off of your property...This home started out as a one-room schoolhouse built in the late 19th century and was added onto and converted into a cute cottage offering 2 bedrooms and plenty of living space on a manageable 1.3 acres of land. The spacious wrap-around deck offers a private place to relax or entertain. A nice yard surrounds the home and the garage and shed provide plenty of storage space. A huge bonus is that it backs up to over 2,000 acres of Watershed Recreational land so you can step right off of your property to hike or hunt. The home has a newly remodeled kitchen with glass tile backsplash and Hickory cabinets. Other recent improvements include added spray foam insulation as well as a new septic and well. Some rooms could use cosmetics, but this just allows you to instill some of your own vision into the home. Located on a town-maintained road in Roxbury, an abundance of Catskills outdoor recreational opportunities, including skiing, are within close proximity.
