Set in the heart of Woodland Valley along a quiet private road serving only a handful of homes, this spacious one-level home offers mountain views, privacy, and a superb location just five minutes from the village of Phoenicia. Originally a humble cabin, it grew over the years into the home it is today.
Open lawn and mature trees create a setting that feels both private and expansive. A wonderfully unruly apple tree will greet you upon arrival. The backyard is a standout feature, with a large, usable lawn and some of the property's best views.
Built by local builder and sawmill owner Lew Hallenbeck, the home reflects a piece of Woodland Valley's local history. The original portion of the home retains the dramatic log beams that became a hallmark of Hallenbeck's work. Its handsome creek stone chimney and stonework were crafted by a respected local mason in the family, adding character and showcasing a high level of craftsmanship.
Inside, abundant natural light and original details contribute to the home's warmth and personality. A large living room with original hardwood floors, an eye-catching brick fireplace, and built-in bookshelves serves as the main gathering space, complemented by a dining area with a wood stove and a skylit den suited for guests, work, or everyday living. A screened porch overlooks the grounds and provides a quiet place to enjoy the changing seasons.
A large attached garage offers flexibility for a workshop, studio, or hobby space, while a separate shed provides additional storage for tools and outdoor equipment. Despite its private setting, high-speed internet is available, and the home's size and layout make it as practical for everyday living as it is for weekends away.
With substantial square footage and original architectural details, the home offers ample opportunity for thoughtful updates over time. For buyers willing to make it their own, there is a great deal here to build upon.
Wild and beautiful Woodland Valley is cherished for its mountain landscapes, clear streams, and direct access to New York's Forever Wild Forest Preserve. From fly fishing and swimming holes to skiing and the cultural life of nearby Phoenicia, this location places much of what draws people to the Catskills close at hand.
