This ~2,700-sqft home is a retreat for the senses, set on almost five private acres with breathtaking mountain views, lush gardens, and the quiet majesty of the Catskills enveloping every corner. Rich in history, the property once operated as a bed and breakfast, its inviting layout and serene setting perfect for welcoming guests. With its three bedrooms, including a first-floor primary suite, an office, a large dining room, and multiple gathering spaces, the home is ideally suited for those looking to reimagine it as a hospitality destination once again. The Catskills' enduring appeal as a haven for travelers makes this an exciting opportunity for anyone seeking a home with both personal and entrepreneurial potential. Inside, original millwork flows throughout, with hardwood floors underfoot and details that speak to an era of artisanship. At the heart of the living room, a stunning river stone fireplace, crafted from hand-selected Esopus Creek rocks, stands as a monument to both the land and the art of design. The kitchen is a nod to a simpler time, featuring a vintage cast-iron farm sink, solid wood cabinetry, and a breakfast nook alcove bathed in morning light. A separate dining room with french doors leading out to a covered porch invites gatherings both intimate and festive, while a wood paneled mudroom with laundry brings practicality and charm to the everyday. The first-floor primary suite with stunning mountain view is a private retreat, with a cozy seating area and a luxurious new bathroom with a chic, curbless walk-in shower. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms, one featuring its own fireplace, share another full bath. An office completes the second floor, offering a space for quiet creativity or productive days. Step outside, and the magic continues. Over two decades of meticulous landscaping have transformed the gardens into a true sanctuary, with vibrant perennials gracing both the front and back of the property. In the back, a hidden gem awaits—a secret garden enclosed by hand-built deer fencing. Here, hydrangeas and other seasonal blooms flourish from spring through fall, creating a serene retreat that invites you to wander among the flowers or simply pause to take in the tranquility. Beyond the property's bounds, hundreds of acres of protected lands stretch up the hill, the Ashokan Reservoir and its trails beckon, and the nearby towns of Woodstock, Phoenicia, and Kingston provide an abundance of culture, dining, and shopping. Winter adventures await at Belleayre Mountain, and year-round serenity is yours in this idyllic Catskills retreat. The home's thoughtful updates—new roof, state-of-the-art septic system, newly painted exterior and a freshly paved driveway—enhance its enduring character. High Point Mountain House is not just a home—it is a living testament to design, nature, and the art of living well. Come and let this extraordinary property inspire the next chapter of your story.
