Now, play to your heart’s content on 10.71 acres at the very top of Overlook Mountain’s privately developed estate community in Woodstock. This home has breathtaking endless views extending over the Hhudson River valley on into the heart of the Berkshires. Let your imagination soar with the eagles or drift into the starlit night sky from a place that never ceases to amaze.
The home itself is meticulously designed to take advantage of these ultimate views and the property’s tranquil gardens. Expansive IPE decking is carefully designed to enable the epitome of enjoyment and serenity which are hallmarks of Catskill outdoor living. Just recently a double rainbow thrilled a gathering of friends after a summer afternoon shower. Should one wish, adjacent wooded areas are ripe for trails, a guest house or extended private meadow.
The interior spaces are warm and gracious with a combination of high ceilings, big windows, and a bluestone hearth–all of which contribute to the deeply satisfying sense of place and home. Flowing easily from one to the other, most rooms open directly to the exterior decking. The kitchen and dining area are designed to harmoniously blend into their sleek maple and granite surfaces. And, the chef’s kitchen is outfitted with all the details one could ask for in which to create the best from Hudson Valley gourmet fare.
Radiant heat in the master bath area, heated towel bars, and a step-down open shower area with picture window to another portion of the 180-degree view, set the tone for one’s private and sensual personal transition space.
The Raycliffe community is one of privacy and casual elegance. Hiking trails lead into the Catskill Mountain preserves and a tennis court beckons if desired.
Woodstock’s many fine restaurants, galleries, performance spaces, and theater are minutes away. The 100-year-old Colony of the Arts is a welcoming and stimulating haven for those who choose to call it home–whether coming from near or far. Offered at $1,250,000 Laurie Ylvisaker, Lic. Assoc. R.E.
