The space
Welcome! Our home is located just 2 hours from New York City at the base of the Shawanagunks Mountains. The house sits tucked away at the end of a quiet residential street surrounded by a peaceful forest and mountain.

If you are looking for a serene escape from the bustle of city life, this is the place for you. We lived here full time during the pandemic and so it is fully stocked with everything a family could need. We spend much of the summer here not leaving the property unless necessary. It has since been converted back to our weekend home.

Inside, the home is decorated with a blend of modern and rustic elements, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere and retreat. There are three large bedrooms, three full bathrooms and a powder room, studio / playroom, gym, fire place and fully equipped chefs kitchen.

The entire home, including each bedrooms, are fully furnished. Fresh linens are provided with backups, including bath & pool towels. The kitchen is fully stocked with all cooking and baking needs including spices and cooking basics, salt, pepper, oils and vinegar. Coffee & Tea station with sugar and honey.

The HVAC is controlled via NEST thermostats, Zone 1 - Main Floor & Zone 2 - 2nd Floor.

Outside, families can enjoy a variety of activities; swimming, foraging, sandbox, playing in dirt, climbing trees, outdoor climbing dome, tree swing or just being in nature making new discoveries. There is a fire pit with seating area & stocked wood shed, hammock and deck off of the kitchen with teak Restoration Hardware modern furniture & Large Green Egg with pizza stone.

The property is not fenced in so it is normal to see wildlife on any given day especially deer and wild turkey's. There are a variety of birds to enjoy as well including owl's, wood peckers, stellar jay's, hawks, eagles, cardinals etc etc.

The pool is fully fenced in with a self closing gate at the entrance for child safety. There is ample modern teak furniture including sofa, two large comfy chairs, coffee table, two umbrella's, two chaise lounges, inflatable kids pool, sandbox & pool toys. The pool house has wifi, fridge, sink and prep area, towels, sunscreen, pool inflatables. Please no smoking on pool furniture or in the pool house. The pool is fully private and secluded at the back of the house down a slope out of view. The pool is not heated. POOL CLOSES FOR THE SEASON END OF SEPTEMBER. OPENS END OF MAY.
Guest access
Guests have full access to the main home, including basement where the washer and dryer is located. There is also a small gym in the basement including Life Fitness Eliptical, mats, weights, bench, punching bag & gloves, battle ropes, rollers & bands.

The only areas locked off are a walk in closet in the upstairs child room & pantry behind the kitchen.

The alarm system is not for guests use.
Other things to note
There is a guest house located on the property just 100 yards to the front of the home (see photos). This is a rental property with is own driveway. The guests do not have access to any of the main house property, including driveway, front lawn or backyard (including the pool area). There is a maximum of 2 guests allowed there and typically it is rented year round on the weekends by couples looking for a weekend escape. The rental property does not impede on the main house and we rarely notice them as they are located to the front of the main house and all activities are located towards the back of the house. We are happy to answer any further questions.
