...The School : A Rare Beaverkill Offering in the Western Catskills

The School in Cooks Falls, rich in history, beautifully converted and restored for modern living, is a distinctive home which sits along the banks of the legendary Beaverkill River - one of the most storied trout streams in the country. Located in Cooks Falls, Delaware County, The School offers rare private river frontage with direct access for fishing, swimming, and riverside relaxation. The residence offers approximately 4,072 square feet of thoughtfully reimagined living space, blending the scale and character of the original school with a refined and yet relaxed approach to modern living. Rarely does a property of such provenance and presence come to the market in this celebrated stretch of the Beaverkill Valley. Approached from the river beneath mature trees and framed by beautifully established grounds, the property offers a quintessential Catskills setting. Terraces and gardens invite outdoor living amongst the surrounding landscape, combining historic character, scale, and a remarkable sense of place. This is not simply another country house, but a property with a story and a provenance. The School features three bedrooms, expansive common areas, high ceilings and flexible space well-suited for full-time use, a weekend retreat, or creative pursuits. Subtle remnants of its past remain throughout, including the school bell still housed in the belfry, the original water fountain... quiet details that speak to the building's history and its life before becoming a private residence. Few historic houses survive with such integrity, and fewer still have been transformed into homes of this scale while retaining so many reminders of their original purpose. Set on over four acres, the property enjoys a peaceful, open setting with mature landscape and room to breathe. A classic French parterre extends from the kitchen, providing an ''outdoor hedged private room'' complete with bluestone table for entertaining. A separate two-story barn adds valuable additional space: ideal for storage, workshop use, or future creative conversion. The combination of private riverfront access, acreage, and historic structure makes this a standout offering in the Catskills. Located just minutes from Roscoe and Livingston Manor, the home is close to renowned fly-fishing, dining, farmers' markets and local shops, yet feels entirely removed from it all. Just over 100 miles from from New York City, this is a rare opportunity to own a meaningful piece of Catskills history in one of its most desirable riverfront settings.
