114 Butrick Rd, Ferndale, NY 12734

This classic 1860s Catskills farmhouse exudes patina and soul, and is as comfortable as your favorite old moccasins. The 27.3-acre property is private, and you feel the serenity as you enter the long driveway, view the yard and pastures, and take in the mature trees and gardens. The spacious side porch makes outdoor living easy. Inside, wide plank floors, exposed beams, and a stone fireplace with woodstove insert make for a warm setting. Kitchen has butcher block counters and a bluestone floor. With multiple living spaces -- living room, den, dining room -- 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths (the master being marble with a jacuzzi tub), there's plenty of room for family and friends. And they'll enjoy the grounds: one trail leads to an old stone-lined pond, another through the woods to a huge back field. Next door, an additional structure is offered "as is," sits on its own lot, has its own well and septic, and has potential as a guest house, studio, workshop, or rental.
