Exceptional Retreat: A Unique Blend of Comfort and Acreage
Nestled just outside the charming Book Village of Hobart, NY, this 2013-built ranch-style home offers an extraordinary opportunity to embrace a tranquil, rural lifestyle on over 9 pristine, private acres. With single-level living and an array of thoughtful updates, this property is perfect for those seeking modern comforts surrounded by natural beauty and functional outbuildings.
The home’s open-concept design features 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a large eat-in kitchen with durable Corian countertops. Central air keeps you cool in the summer and cozy evenings are guaranteed by the wood-burning insert fireplace, while the jacuzzi tub in the primary bath offers the ultimate relaxation. Recent updates, including new bedroom carpets, upgraded living room flooring, water filtration system, a brand-new well pump (2022), and a well tank (2024), ensure the home feels as fresh as the day it was built.
Outside, the property truly shines. A new bluestone driveway greets you, leading to a brick patio with a stylish gazebo, perfect for entertaining or enjoying seasonal mountain views. The acreage includes a small runoff pond, ideal for animals or creating a serene natural oasis.
Animal enthusiasts will be thrilled by the horse barn, complete with stalls, a tack room, and electric fencing, currently repurposed for chickens but easily adaptable for goats, horses, or other livestock. A secondary shed with electric offers additional storage or workspace, and the portable generator provides peace of mind.
With its proximity to the other popular Catskill Mountain villages of Stamford & Delhi, NY, the potential for short-term rentals, and its unmatched blend of modern living and rural amenities, this property is a true gem. Whether you dream of raising animals, cultivating a homestead, or simply enjoying unparalleled privacy, this home is ready to make your vision a reality. Do Not Delay.
