Close to Inness and all that is inspiring about the Catskills and Shawangunks, this meticulously designed contemporary on five beautiful acres offers an inground heated pool, lush landscaping, and plenty of privacy in which to relax and entertain. The home's orientation and large windows maximize light and views, amplifying the pleasure of the upstate experience. The open-plan living area, accessed through barn-style front doors and a substantial foyer, is especially bright and welcoming. Adding to the ambience are a wood stove, recessed lighting, and radiant wood floors. Chefs will enjoy the gourmet kitchen featuring Viking appliances, a farm sink, and island with built-in beverage cooler. From the living area, French doors lead to a large screened-in porch and a bluestone patio and firepit, offering additional living and dining space. Imagine enjoying a locally sourced alfresco meal with friends and family before stargazing or sitting around a fire to roast marshmallows. Afterwards, continue the conversation in the living area or retreat to the first-floor den (which could serve as an additional bedroom). The first floor also features a full bath. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes a 12x10 balcony that provides a lovely platform from which to greet the dawn, take in the sunset, or unwind with a view of the pool and lawn. In the luxurious primary bedroom, you'll find walk-in closets and an ensuite bathroom containing double sinks, a soaking tub, and shower. This level includes two additional bedrooms and another full bath. The finished basement could be used as an exercise room, music studio, or playroom. (Many possibilities here.) Pets will enjoy time spent outdoors in the fenced-in yard. The beauty of the property's setting, with the pool, flowering bushes and trees, and surrounding woods, cannot be overstated. It's a dream to travel from the house across the lawn, or using the granite steps, to the pool framed by hydrangeas. This 5-acre sanctuary is close to the towns of Kingston and New Paltz. Nearby are charming Stone Ridge, High Falls, and Rosendale. Day passes can be acquired for the Mohonk Mountain House, and there's always the Ashokan Rail Trail for walking, inline skating, and bicycling. Orchards, farm markets, breweries, and wineries are within minutes. Inness is less than seven miles. Nearby schools include Marbletown Elementary (Rondout Valley Central School District) and High Meadow in Stone Ridge. Schedule a Private Showing
