Description

Escape the clamor of the city and recharge in nature at Casa Cochecton, your retreat in the Western Catskills just 2 hours from NYC. Everything in the home has been thoughtfully designed with relaxation in mind, from the easy entry into a spacious mudroom to the two meticulously renovated bathrooms that are modern yet in keeping with the home’s rustic feel. The living room with its vaulted ceilings and amazing light flows seamlessly into the central gathering space for the home, the formal dining area, which features a striking mid century chandelier. Off the dining area you’ll find the kitchen, charming and timeless with its classic shaker cabinets, apron sink, subway tile and beadboard ceiling. There is also a generous walk-in pantry and an adorable broom closet.Two bedrooms, one with an ensuite bath, are also off this central space - airy, relaxing and perfect for sneaking afternoon naps. The second full bath, off the kitchen, is charming with its painted hardwood floors, handmade tile and brass fixtures. The large sunroom, which transforms into a cozy sleeping area at night, is perfect for a morning coffee or evening cocktail. Unwind as you gaze out over your expansive yard and the surrounding forest. This space, with its warm wood paneling and walls of windows, evokes endless possibilities – a new primary suite, guest wing, or maybe an inspiring home office or studio where you can work with an unobstructed view of the natural world. Outside, the deck is perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining – or watching the stars come out late on a summer evening as you decompress from daily life. Casa Cochecton epitomizes the wabi-sabi philosophy, inviting you to abandon the hollow pursuit of perfection and embrace the authentic beauty of imperfection.When you’re ready to venture out of your private retreat, Narrowsburg, on the Delaware River, is an easy 15 minutes’ drive away, with a main street that boasts exceptional restaurants and shops – enjoy the river and dinner on the patio at The Laundrette. Callicoon is also 15 minutes away, with its year-round farmers’ market and popular art deco movie theater. And for live-music lovers, outdoor summer concerts at Bethel Woods, site of the 1969 Woodstock Festival, are just 10 minutes away. A highly successful rental history also offers an excellent income potential which can substantially offset carrying costs, and for a truly turnkey experience, most furnishings are available for purchase.
