Welcome to the Alta House. Set on three private acres at the end of a quiet dead-end road, this airy and inviting three-bedroom, two-bath ranch offers an ideal combination of comfort, privacy, and convenience. Located in Catskill, the 1,200-square-foot home has been thoughtfully updated and is equally well suited as a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or investment property. The home features an open, comfortable layout with three bedrooms and two updated bathrooms, including a spacious primary suite with its own en-suite bath. Refinished wood floors and fresh interior and exterior paint create a clean, welcoming atmosphere, while a newly renovated kitchen brings modern function to the heart of the home. A screened-in porch with cedar-shake walls extends the living space outdoors, creating a wonderful setting for morning coffee, summer dinners, or quiet evenings overlooking the property. A new front deck, fire pit, and seasonal views further enhance the connection to the surrounding landscape. Additional features include central air conditioning, solar panels, a full unfinished basement offering generous storage, and a detached shed. Set on a private dead-end road with minimal traffic, the property offers a peaceful sense of seclusion while remaining close to everything the region has to offer. The home is located in a short-term-rental-friendly town, adding flexibility for those seeking an income-producing property. The location is particularly appealing, just minutes from the Town of Catskill and beloved Story Farms, with easy access to hiking, skiing, waterfalls, and the surrounding Hudson Valley. Hudson, Woodstock, Saugerties, and Kingston are all within approximately a 30-minute drive. Thoughtfully updated and wonderfully located, The Alta house offers an easy entry into Upstate living with the flexibility to make it your own, whether as a primary home, weekend escape, or investment property. A complete list of improvements is available upon request.

The Upstate Lifestyle at 19 Alta Vista Drive, Catskill

Life at 19 Alta Vista Drive comes with the Hudson River practically as a backyard amenity. Down at Dutchman's Landing Park, mornings can start with a walk along the water and a view that takes in the Rip Van Winkle Bridge and the mountains beyond — or, if you're feeling ambitious, follow the Hudson River Skywalk right across the bridge itself, a scenic path linking the Thomas Cole Historic Site to the Olana estate on the far shore. Speaking of Thomas Cole, his preserved home and studio are just minutes away, offering an easy afternoon of art and history without much of a drive. Come evening, downtown Catskill's Main Street is where things get lively: browse the galleries and boutiques, grab a coffee at Citiot, and settle in at Creekside for a sunset dinner overlooking the water. It's a location that makes river views, gallery-hopping, and good food all part of the daily routine rather than the weekend plan.
