At the end of a secluded dead-end road sits this unique RISD-architect designed custom home, situated within a beautiful 10 acre parcel of both wooded and open land. The home sits high on a hill and overlooks your very own waterfront, with 900' of frontage on the rushing Schoharie Creek. The home embraces mid-century design, incorporating clean lines and a modern, minimalist aesthetic that situates peacefully into its lush, forested setting. It was also designed to be sealed with sliding barn doors to provide peace of mind while unoccupied. Walls of oversized windows bring the gorgeous nature outside right into the home. With a soaring 18' high cathedral ceiling which includes a fireplace built from rocks found on the land, the space boasts vertically while still maintaining an intimate atmosphere for family gatherings. Two private bedrooms can be found upstairs on the mezzanine level, and a third can be found downstairs with picture windows that look directly out to the mountains and waterfront. The interior finishes are as understated and tasteful as the architectural design of the home---flooring that's a mix of tile and wood, clean white walls, and smooth natural wood panels that reflect the wooded setting of the home. Outside you'll find absolute paradise with all the privacy imaginable. Hear the gentle sound of rushing water from the sprawling freshly painted deck as you look out to the mountain view to the north. Sit back and indulge in the hot tub situated behind the home as you look out at the rolling landscape before you. Or enjoy a glass of wine and the sunset from the private, rustic "river deck" built down along the water's edge, complete with fire pit. A seasonal rushing creek and small pond are also on the property if additional water features are desired. The original owner masterfully landscaped the many gardens that surround the home, and every season offers a new mix of colorful and exotic plantings which were designed with minimal maintenance in mind. The front yard is home to a wonderful variety of wild animals, with frequents visits from deer, rabbits, fox, and the occasional porcupine, as well as daily sightings of a nesting pair bald eagles residing in a tree a few hundred yards down the creek. A large brand new shed is at the top of the property for additional storage. Absolutely move-in ready for you to enjoy all four seasons in the glorious Catskills---just a short drive to Windham Mountain and Hunter Mountain for fantastic skiing and year-round entertainment, as well as Roxbury, and Tannersville nearby for arts, culture, shopping, and great dining. Just 2.5 hour drive to the GWB, this home is the quiet, low-maintenance oasis you've been looking for
