An early 19th Century Greek Revival Church, reimagined into a stunning residence on thirty-seven acres of rolling fields, woods and trails at the foothills of the Catskill Mountains. Inside, the c1837 timber frame structure’s main living space has soaring ceilings and exposed hand hewn beams. The floors are white oak, and windows line the lime-washed walls floor-to-ceiling. A library is perched in the cupola with gorgeous custom bookshelves, and under the stairwell you’ll find a 600+ bottle wine room, temperature controlled and accessed through steel doors. A gas fireplace grounds the large seating area, which looks into the open chef’s kitchen. The space is fabulous for entertaining. In the kitchen there is a 48” AGA induction range, a large center island, and the walk-in pantry houses a second sink and expertly hides the paneled refrigerator. The primary suite has a wing of its own. It is big and bright and like the rest of the house it looks out onto the dramatic mountain view. The primary bath has a large wet room with two showers and a soaking tub, the hardware is beautiful, heavy unlacquered brass. In the opposite wing are two spacious guest rooms, a bunk room with four sweet & custom built-in bunks, and an incredible full bath with a double vanity and radiant heat. A home office space is perched on the third floor with a separate staircase, it is nicely and intentionally tucked in for privacy and quiet. The house is built into the hillside, the lower level is light filled and walk-out and there you’ll find a family/media room, a wet bar, and a gorgeous laundry room with two washer/dryers, a farmhouse sink and lots of storage. Outside, you’re completely immersed in nature with nearly forty acres to explore. Find streams and waterfalls, trails wind through the woods. Potter Mountain is a fabulous retreat for those wanting peace and quiet, but you’re also close to hiking, farm-to-table dining, and Windham Mountain Club is right down the road. Just over 2h to NYC, a furniture package is available.
