Vly Mountain Retreat — Contemporary Luxury Meets Untamed Beauty in the Catskills.
Discover Vly Mountain Retreat, a private, architecturally sophisticated estate in Lexington—one of upstate New York's best-kept secrets. Framed by uninterrupted views of the Catskill Mountains and set on 9 meticulously designed acres, this exclusive compound seamlessly fuses modern luxury with the natural grandeur of its surroundings.
Comprising a striking 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath main residence and a beautifully crafted 3-bedroom, 3-bath carriage house, the retreat is thoughtfully designed for elevated living, effortless entertaining, and tranquil seclusion. Every room is positioned to capture panoramic vistas of pristine wilderness, with interiors that blur the line between indoors and out through expansive floor-to-ceiling glass and multiple outdoor living spaces.
The main house stuns with its open-concept great room—a luminous expanse with walls of glass on three sides, motorized shades, and a sculptural wood-burning fireplace that adds warmth and drama. The adjoining chef's kitchen is equipped with top-tier appliances, custom cabinetry, a generous island, and sleek surfaces, perfect for both intimate meals and grand gatherings.
Each bath is a spa-like sanctuary, adorned with premium fixtures, designer tiles, and curated lighting. Select bathrooms feature deep soaking tubs and oversized walk-in showers, creating a restorative experience in every corner.
Designed with wellness in mind, the estate includes a glass-enclosed gym with mountain views, an oversized steam room, and a custom infrared sauna—offering a private spa experience amid nature.
Step outside to your own summer oasis: a heated, in-ground saltwater pool accessed via a hand-laid stone staircase, surrounded by low-maintenance landscaping, towering trees, and over 1,400 square feet of decks and balconies. A stone fire pit provides the perfect setting for starlit evenings.
The carriage house, with its classic clapboard-and-stone facade and extended eaves, evokes timeless Catskill craftsmanship. Ideal for guests or extended family, it features three bedrooms with ensuite baths, private balconies, and a top-floor flex space for a home office or studio. A 3-car garage with 10-foot clearance completes the offering.
Modern infrastructure ensures comfort and peace of mind, including two 16kW standby generators, a deep well, new septic system, central HVAC, Nest smart thermostats, and gigabit fiber internet.
Located just 2.5 hours from NYC and a short drive from Hunter, Windham, and Belleayre ski resorts, Vly Mountain Retreat is a rare opportunity to own a compound that embodies the very best of luxury mountain living—where serenity, design, and adventure converge.
