Two hours north of Manhattan lies the pristine Catskill mountains. This charming cape style home is the perfect secluded getaway for those looking to leave it all behind and bask in tranquility. Summertime means blueberries (high bush and low bush), raspberries, blackberries, and cool breezes blowing from the rich lustrous wetland that lays uphill from the main house.
With a covered back porch, and a nice sized front deck, within earshot of one of many babbling brooks, an intact eco-system teeming with frogs, birds, butterflies, porcupines, deer, this is the perfect getaway for a family (or families) looking to create special memories far away from the maddening crowds of the city. The bedrooms are cozy, there's a galley kitchen with electric stove/oven, full size fridge and dishwasher, a spacious living room stocked with puzzles and boardgames, and a small comfortable dining room is set off of the kitchen. Additional amenities include washer/dryer, fire pit, and gas grill. The area is absolutely perfect for cycling, with routes ranging from easy to crushing, depending on your preference. There is also satellite internet, but please note: OUR INTERNET IS NOT RELIABLE ENOUGH OR FAST ENOUGH FOR REMOTE WORK OR SCHOOL.
The 112 acres spans both sides of the road, and includes extensive woodland, streams that occasionally tumble into modest waterfalls, and a large marsh that attracts an extensive bird population.

Why they chose this property
If you're looking for peace and quiet and nature's warm (and sometimes cold) embrace, you've come to the right place. Set back from a very quiet road (a total of five houses on a one mile stretch), the house sits in the corner of 112 acres of unspoiled secondary forest with lots of different terrain to explore. Perfect for families and friends seeking solace and fun and a true feeling of getting away from it all. Summertime holds the promise of raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries. Kids especially enjoy exploring the highly varied terrain.
