Property Description
Welcome to your ultimate Upstate retreat, perfectly perched between Hunter and Windham Mountains with unobstructed 360° mountain views, total privacy, and over 10 acres of pristine land backed by protected forest. This contemporary 6-bedroom, 4.5-bath home delivers that rare combination of modern comfort, turnkey convenience, and true mountaintop magic. With a fully renovated kitchen and spa-level primary bath, plus numerous updates throughout, this property is being offered turnkey just in time for ski season. Step inside to an open-concept main floor designed to showcase the sweeping views from every angle. The spacious kitchen and dining area flow seamlessly into the light-filled living room, where an updated modern propane fireplace anchors the space and oversized windows blur the line between indoors and out. Sliding glass doors lead to a large view deck ideal for morning coffee or aprés-ski gatherings. The first-floor luxury primary suite feels like its own private sanctuary, featuring an oversized closet, a renovated ensuite with soaking tub and Bluetooth-enabled shower, and a private deck complete with hot tub overlooking endless mountain ridgelines. Upstairs, four bright guest bedrooms, including one with its own deck, offer plenty of room for friends and family. Off the living room, a walkout lower level adds even more flex space, and a completely separate mother-in-law suite with private entrance features its own kitchen, laundry, living room, and bedroom, perfect for guests, rental income, or multi-generational living. A detached garage completes the package. Located minutes from both Hunter and Windham, this home puts you close to the best of the Catskills, world-class skiing, hiking at Kaaterskill Falls and North-South Lake, mountain biking, ziplines, scenic golf, charming local shops, and year-round festivals. Enjoy award-winning breweries, cozy coffee shops, après-ski dining, and vibrant seasonal events in both mountain towns. Whether you're looking for a full-time home, a luxury weekend escape, or a top-tier investment property, this turnkey mountain oasis offers privacy, convenience, and iconic Catskills views from every direction.
