Woodstock Real Estate For Sale

21-25 Rose Lane, Bearsville, NY 12498 - Catskills Log Home For Sale

“In the bleak mid-winter, frosty wind made moan…”

Frosty wind has certainly made moan this December and January. It’s been cold, it’s been bleak, and everyone in the Upstate region has been spending more time in our homes than we’re accustomed to. In this sort of weather, home becomes very important. The less stuffy your home is, the less likely you are to get a raging case of cabin fever. You want a home that’s warm and cheerful. A home that lifts your spirits and encourages you to look out the windows, to go outside, and not to burrow deeper into the vortex of your sofa. 21-25 Rose Lane in Bearsville in Ulster County NY is the perfect place to ride out the winter; feeling calm, comfortable and optimistic.

Ulster County is not peppered with log homes in the way Greene County is, which makes 21-25 Rose Lane a special find to begin with. Located just three miles from the heart of the Village of Woodstock in the Cooper Lake section of Bearsville, it’s sited on eight acres that provide privacy, quiet, and the illusion of being much further “out there” than it really is. Pull up to the home, with its mountain backdrop, and you’ll immediately notice that it’s not your average log home. It’s a ranch with an extensive wrap around porch and banks of divided light windows that lend the façade a sophistication that’s just a little bit different; it looks both substantial, as all log homes do, and light. The exterior hints at what’s inside, even the red doors suggest the shot of style that awaits once you pass through them.

Step in and you’ll feel enlightened, literally. Every room of this home is a bright open space filled with natural light. The sunshine cascades through the beautiful windows, framing views of the great outdoors. The quality of construction and finish work is impressive. The walls and ceilings are wrapped in light wood finishes that bounce the sunlight around. The simplicity and continuity of the design give this log home a modern feel: clean, bright, and sophisticated. Being at once enveloped and uplifted is quite a remarkable sensation.

The custom kitchen has a minimal design with an oversized red granite island. There’s plenty of room for food prep, breakfast, a craft project or wine sipping, and the countertop provides just the right design pop in the clean space. The living room’s gorgeous stone fireplace is raised so it’s visible from the kitchen, that, and the open floor plan, ensure that the chef is never left out of the action. The master suite is fantastic, with lots of windows, access to the deck, and a large bath with some just-right modern touches of color - stunning blue tile and a colorful claw foot tub bathed in natural light.

French Doors throughout access the wrap-around deck & covered bluestone patio, the perfect place to enjoy the outdoor haven. 21-25 Rose Lane is truly a refuge with room. The cottage (yes, this property also has an adorable cottage) has some great style, a wraparound deck, full bath and kitchen, and can be used as a guest house, a workspace, or for rental income. There’s also a huge two room workshop/studio adjacent to the cottage, sited just above a pretty pond. The cottage and workshop are on a separate deeded lot from the main home and can be accessed from a separate driveway. The two homes are sited on the combined eight acres with enough distance between them to afford your guests or tenants privacy, and you the unspoiled Woodstock experience this home invites.

If winter is getting you down, if your sofa is pulling you into its vortex and your ceilings are pushing you further down, you might want to explore an alternative living situation. Tour 21-25 Rose Lane in Bearsville. Put on your boots and prepare to be enlivened.
