Built in 1920 and full of character, this multi-level Phoenicia home is the kind of place where you actually unpack, not just for the weekend, but for the season. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and enough space for everyone to spread out and find their own corner to settle into. And yes, one of the best swimming holes in the Catskills is almost literally right across the street. The heart of the home is a stunning great room with a soaring arched window that frames the backyard like a painting. Outside, terraced stone gardens spill down into native landscaping, all backing up to thousands of acres of Catskill state land. Want to hike? Just walk out the back door and wander the easily accessed trails. A large balcony off one of the upper bedrooms gives you a bird's eye view of all of it. T he multi-level layout gives everyone room to breathe, with a main living room on one level and a separate den space upstairs. High speed internet means you can work remotely without skipping a beat, and when you close the laptop, everything you came up here for is right outside. Less than a mile from the center of Phoenicia, you are super close to some of the best the Catskills has to offer. Grab a burger at Brio's. Enjoy a pint at Woodstock Brewing. Have breakfast at the Phoenicia Diner. In summer, Ride the Rails is just minutes away. Come winter, you're perfectly positioned between Hunter Mountain and Belleayre for world class skiing, and Woodstock is only about 25 minutes away. This is Catskills living at its most comfortable. The kind of place you stop counting the days and just start living them.
