HUCKLEBERRY BROOK HOMESTEAD ON 27.3 ACRES: Everyone says, Location, location, location!, and for this charming fieldstone and clapboard house, just minutes from Margaretville village, yet located on a dead-end town road, abutting thousands of acres of state land and hiking trails, and 5 minutes from the 20 mile long Pepacton Reservoir (open to fishing, canoeing and kayaking)--that is the understatement. This property offers it all--privacy, water (a pond), and panoramic mountain views, plus all the conveniences of easy access to the village as well as recreational opportunities, literally just minutes away.   The 3000+ square foot home can easily accommodate quite a few people--the spacious kitchen opens into a large dining area and combination living room, which is lined with windows, bringing the outside in, and features a woodstove hearth at one end of the room surrounded by built in shelving. There is a French door out to a deck which runs the full length of the house. There are two large bedrooms on the first floor, as well as a full bath and a half bath.  More about the kitchen, it has extensive wood cabinets, lots of counter space and includes an intimate eat-in dining option, (also lined with storage cabinets) as well as a conveniently located laundry nook. Moving upstairs there are two more large bedrooms and another bathroom as well as one unfinished room at the end of the wide hall as well as extensive storage areas. Moving back downstairs, the fully configured walk out lower level has a large family room/den which now easily accommodates a pool table as well as a ping pong table (play room for the kids), off to one side it has a second kitchen, somewhat vintage but usable. Other rooms downstairs include an office space, a darkroom, a workshop and the utility room which houses the furnace, water system, and electric panel. In short, there is an abundance of space. That level also opens outside to the back lawn, has lots of windows and light, could also function as a separate mother in law apartment with a few modifications.  The other features I failed to mention are the 2-car attached garage, the paved circular driveway, and the two covered patios--one at the entryway, the other sitting area accessible off the kitchen, as well as a small barn/shed to hold your riding mower, tools and recreational toys.   If you are looking for a spacious home, conveniently located and you enjoy the out of doors, and all the different recreational activities, you can't beat this opportunity!
