Costa Rica in the Catskills! Walk around this stream-side cottage once (w/ 255 ft of frontage on Potic Creek) and you'll be hooked! Sprawling decks overlook the lazy (and sometimes gushing) full-year stream. You can fish, sunbathe on flat rock'', or wander the property and enjoy the dreamy, lush landscape. Whether lounging in a hammock, on the back porch swing, or inside sleeping, you'll be soothed by the sound of flowing water. Potic Creek offers incredible delights like your very own swimming hole, and you can skirt the stream's edge and find yourself at the most fantastic waterfall. Entertain on the large deck above the creek; star gaze from your hot tub; tell stories around the fire pit. Maybe you'll fry up some sunnies, perch, or catfish that you caught just a few feet away. Dotted on the property are three fabulous outbuildings: A studio/barn with adjacent outdoor bathroom that's got running hot and cold water and a sweet greenhouse attached. This could be a rustic getaway for your guests. Build it into a more substantial AirBnB or glamping site, or use it as a space to make art, write, exercise or relax. There's even a corral area for pets or animals. You'll also find a 720 sq. ft garage at the front of the property. This major bonus offers total seclusion and protection from the road. It's heated, insulated, and has a 200-amp electric service. (It currently has a special use commercial permit and could cater to an at-home business). Smack dab in the middle of this miraculous wonderland is an exquisite cottage-style 4 bedroom home. The moment you step through the back door you'll feel yourself unwind. There's an artfully designed mudroom, with ceramic tiled floors and walls and get this it doubles as a showering station for pets or to rinse off after gardening. To one side there's the cutest full bath and a cleverly hidden utility room with new high efficiency on-demand hot water heater. Across the way is a large open laundry room that has potential for additional uses. The dining room (with its romantic gas fireplace) flows nicely to the living room, and kitchen with its vaulted ceilings. Everything is infused with the seller's creative spirit and crafty designs. Check out the meticulous pantry in the kitchen! This great floor plan allows for two ground floor, stream-side bedrooms with custom built closets and picture windows; bringing the outdoors in. Sleep soundly in nature's embrace. A second large and luxurious bathroom is just off the Dini
