I love a small cottage. There's nothing nicer than arriving in the Catskills and dropping your bag in your cozy cottage and heading out to do whatever you've got planned. Why are you so care free? Because your little cottage needs nothing from you! You don't need to attend to the many bedrooms, the sprinkler system, the 3 car garage that needs a good clean-out, the many bluestone terraces that need weeding. In a glance you can take it all in, see all is well, and go about your fun. That's the life! Smart you for buying Catskill Real Estate that gives you the gift of chaos free enjoyment. 

If you'd rather sweet and easy than grand and high-maintenance here are a few cottages for sale right now that could help you live weekend bliss.

Wallkill Farmhouse    

Here's one for the Antique Home Lovers out there (we know you're out there!). This charming Hudson Valley farmhouse is full of history and in move-in ready condition. Have you ever driven down a country road that was obviously once a large farm and wondered which house was THE house? Which house was the hub of activity during that romantic era? Here you don't have to wonder, it was this house. This is the original farmstead home of Dubois Road in Wallkill, and it's for sale. 

Not everyone is as familiar with Wallkill as they are with Kingston, Woodstock or New Paltz. Wallkill, NY doesn't get all that much search action on google. But it's a lovely place! Sitting in the midst of the Shawangunk Mountains and convenient to New Paltz,

Woodstock NY Real Estate Serenity

When you pull up the long driveway to 176 Hutchin Hill Road in Woodstock, New York it's best to do it with your car windows open. I visited on one of those first Spring days when you could ride around with your car windows open and your nose tilted towards the windows to catch the air. Because of this I was struck first, not by the two houses, which are both lovely, but by a sudden deep feeling of calm accompanied by birdsong and the sounds of the nearby stream. Hutchin Hill Road sits high up halfway between Woodstock and Phoenicia, NY. This nearly 27 acre property is part of a natural level area with a valley below and more mountains above. I know we Catskill Mountain Real Estate agents bandy about the words "mountain views" all the time, we see a

 Catskills Real Estate | Cairo NY

When I first saw the pre-listing photos of 278 Crows Nest Road in Cairo I quite literally freaked out. This is the sort of house that real estate geeks drool over - gorgeous spaces, surprises around every corner, combining old and new sensibilities in innovative ways. It. Is. Stunning. It's set on 178 acres of private Catskill Mountains land on top of Black Mountain. If you're a golfer it's within walking distance to Black Mountain Golf Course. As soon as I got wind of it, I picked up the phone and called our photographer/videographer and said, "get up there now (please), and take thousands of pictures!" Sometimes photos don't quite do a property justice, they don't give you the feel of the place, these are pretty

A Hudson River Estate

  Properties with Hudson Views are rare. Properties with unimpeded Hudson Views, rarer still. Properties built to capture amazing views of the Hudson and a scenic bridge, with terraces that provide the perfect viewing point? The numbers dwindle still further. Properties like that that are currently on the market, in picture perfect condition, priced way under the 1 million mark, with motivated sellers? It's possible there's only one of those out there right now. 50 Turkey Point Road, in Saugerties, NY.   If you're on the fence about river views think on this. Simple mountain views are essentially static. Of course they change slightly with the seasons, but mountains never get up and move around! With this property you have distant mountain…

Plantation Style in the Catskills

 

Imagine this. It’s a Saturday night in July. You’ve just spent the day playing host to friends and family; serving barbeque while they swim in the pool, dance in your front yard, and have a party just like the ones in the film, “The Ya-Ya Sisterhood”. Now, you’re relaxing on your gracious front porch. It’s not one of those narrow New England front porches with view-blocking railings. This is a Southern-style front porch with big pillars supporting its depth, and enough room for a dining area and several seating areas. Think “veranda”, not “porch”. You’ve got a book and some iced tea and you’re looking out over your gorgeously landscaped and manicured yard as the summer breeze cools you. Is this the Catskills? Couldn’t be. But it is.

There’s a lot of excitement involved in moving to a new area. Every set routine you go about without giving a second thought to becomes a new adventure of discovery - whether you like it or not. Where’s the best place to go for groceries? What about local or organic produce? Which plumber in town can I call in the middle of the night if I need to? There’s an animal in my yard that looks kind of like a cat, but enough not like a cat that I’m hesitant to feed/pet it. Who deals with this and can they hurry up?

 

 

Is there a Thai place nearby? THERE BETTER BE A THAI PLACE NEARBY! Figuring out all the ins and outs of your new environment takes time. So why not relax with some music? I’ll tell you why not. You’ve moved! The radio stations
