Property Description
Introducing Potic Plains Farm, a 235-acre Hudson Valley estate and working farm where history, distinctive architecture, expansive land, and supporting structures are brought together in a private setting of uncommon scale and character. Anchored by a comprehensively restored 1761 stone house, the property features a contemporary residence designed by internationally renowned architect Alexander Gorlin. The 6,576-square-foot main residence creates a dialogue between old and new. The distinctly contemporary design stands in deliberate contrast to the original stone structure, while reclaimed materials connect the two periods with warmth and continuity. Beyond the main house are a caretaker's residence, detached garage with guest apartment, historic barns, and extensive agricultural and recreational infrastructure. Approximately 120 acres of open fields, currently maintained for hay, include a remarkably level 95-acre field bordered by Potic Creek and Catskill Creek, which converge at the eastern edge of the property. Together, the creeks provide approximately 1.73 miles of frontage and opportunities for swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and tubing. Woodlands, wetlands, and miles of nature trails invite walking, hiking, and exploration. Long vistas unfold across the farm, while vantage points throughout offer far-reaching views toward both the Catskills and Berkshires. The diversity and existing infrastructure create a canvas for an extraordinary range of future possibilities. Located on a dead-end road and only eight minutes from New York State Thruway Exit 21, Potic Plains Farm combines seclusion with convenient access to Catskill, Athens, Hudson, and the region beyond. Its breadth, history, and setting distinguish it as a truly one-of-a-kind Hudson Valley offering.
