Private Vacation Home
NEW: Stunning Architectural Double Pavilion House
Roscoe, New York, United States
Title - NEW: Stunning Architectural Double Pavilion House w/ Waterfall in RoscoebrbrHighlights: Beautiful luxury home with chef's kitchen on 100 acres. Exceptional privacy and seclusion, yet minutes to Roscoe. brbrWelcome to Howard's Hill! If you want a contemporary country home with sleek interiors near a great town, this is it! brbrDesigned by Warren Freyer of Freyer Collaborative, the house was sited towards the hill's peak to benefit from great light and cool breezes and, most importantly, provide an immersive experience with the birds and nature. Eagles are regular visitors! Located on 100 acres, guests can experience the ultimate Catskill living, with woods, a private waterfall, and stunning rugged terrain, before coming inside to enjoy many luxury features. brbrThe house is extraordinary, with voluminous spaces, polished concrete heated floors, and excellent sight lines. Shoji screens that disappear into the walls can come out to provide a cozier feeling and dilute the intense natural light. brbrThe layout is centered around two enormous square pavilion-type spaces. On entering, to the right, you see the cavernous living area with a 30 ft peaked ceiling. With walls of windows on all sides, a lovely fireplace, and a fabulous kitchen with Sub Zero and professional appliances, this great room will allow for a magical gathering. To the left, the hallway leads to the two sleeping areas. This property is technically a one-bedroom house, but its vastness and clever use of shoji screens provide privacy, and here on the main level, it creates two bedrooms (please see the floor plan in photos). Each area has a queen bed and views of the forest. Also on this floor is a shared hallway bathroom with a shower and a separate laundry room. Upstairs is the grand principal bedroom suite. Facing east and surrounded by windows, you will feel like you are sleeping in the clouds. This suite has a bathroom with a shower and a sitting area for a quiet moment. Or maybe not so quiet - the owner enjoys playing in the morning, and this is where they keep their beautiful piano. A sofa bed joins the king bed for parents who want their child nearby (the house also has a crib).brbrBack downstairs, you have a good-sized deck set amongst the trees. Dining for 8, sofa seating, patio heating, and the BBQ are all here. In addition, there is a lawn garden area at the front with a firepit and forest views. brbrTHE KITCHEN & MEALS brMeals and beverages are a breeze. The kitchen has one of the best-equipped coffee stations, with every type of machine (Nespresso, Expresso, Keurig, regular, French press, drip) and appliances for frothing and grinding. Cupboards hold an enormous array of equipment for any culinary endeavor. For the less adventurous, a great dinner can also be had by driving 10 minutes in either direction. For the best picnic spot in the county, the vast rock ledge next to the waterfall gets five stars! For cocktails, the living room holds our special Upstate Place, 'All In Good Taste Libation Station,' a non-alcoholic, fun, full bar and cocktail tray set up to get any stay off to a marvelous start. brbrFAMILY & FUN brLike all Upstate Place properties, this home has a crib, highchair, baby bath, etc., to make the smallest guest's stay welcoming and easy. The house provides well for all activities: towels and picnic blankets for the waterfall, snowshoes for winter walks, snacks for nibbles, and propane and firewood for outdoor living. brbrIdeally, the house would suit a family, a small group, or couples vacationing together. brbrFEATURES AND AMENITIES br• Gourmet chefs kitchenbr• Main level bedrooms br• Dining area with seating for 6br• TVbr• Work/office areabr• Books & gamesbr• Wi-Fi - very goodbrbrFAMILY-FRIENDLY br• Crib and beddingbr• Highchairbr• Booster seat br• Children's plates, bowls, and cupsbr• Toys and gamesbr• Baby Bathbr• Child/baby gatesbrbrLAYOUT brTwo Level HomebrThe main level has the entry, great room - living, kitchen, dining, two sleeping areas, bathroom, and separate laundry room. brThe upper level has a main bedroom, an en-suite bathroom, and a sitting area. brbrBEDROOMS & BATHROOMS br• Bedroom 1 - Main level, Queen bed br• Bedroom 2 - Main level, Queen bed br• Bathroom 1 - Hallway access w/ shower br• Bedroom 3 - Upstairs King bedroombr• Bathroom 2 - Upstairs, Shower, walk-in br• Bathrooms supplied with full products (Le Labo shampoo, conditioner, body wash, cotton balls, q-tips, etc.)brbrOUTDOOR FEATURES br• Private Garden and woodsbr• Stunning waterfallbr• Deckbr• Outdoor dining for 8br• Firepit - wood providedbr• Lawnbr• Outdoor seatingbr• Barbecue grill - propane providedbr• Driveway parking for five vehicles brbrPET FRIENDLY brThis is a V.I.Pooch Pawperty, and your furry friend can expect the following: br• Dog bedbr• Bowlsbr• Toysbr• Poop bagsbr• Shampoobr• First aid kitbrbrSTAFF & SERVICESbrExtra cost (advance notice required):br• Pantry/wine pre-stockingbr• Mid-stay HousekeepingbrbrLOCATIONbrPoints of Interestbr• 3 miles to The Catskill Hills Resortbr• 4 miles to Roscoebr• 7 miles to Buck Brook Alpacasbr• 7 miles to North Branchbr• 9 miles to Livingston Manorbr• 15 miles to Mud & Trout Pond Hikingbr• 16 miles to Bethel Woods Concertsbr• 18 miles to Mongaup Pond Birding Trailbr• 34 miles to Kartrite Indoor Water ParkbrbrSKI ACCESS br• 30 miles to Holiday Mountainbr• 37 miles to Big Bear at Masthope Mtnbr• 48 miles to Belleayre MountainbrbrAIRPORTSbr• 73 miles to Wilkes-Barr Scranton (AVP)br• 74 miles to Stewart International (SWF)br• 109 miles to Teterboro (TEB)br• 120 miles to Westchester (HPN)br• 121 miles to Albany International (ALB)br• 129 miles to Newark Liberty (EWR)br• 136 miles to John F.

The driveway is plowed in winter, but a four-wheel drive is recommended to explore the area.brbrAs this house has two levels, accessing the upper floor may not be suitable for those who need help with steps/stairs. brbrThis house is in a rural environment surrounded by countryside, farms, and wildlife. While it's wonderful to observe the eagles, deer, bears, and adorable chipmunks, it can also mean you will hear coyotes and foxes at night and encounter the less cute mice, flies, snakes, ants, bees, and ticks. There is very little to be done about it, but by keeping doors closed or screened and food in its appropriate storage, unwelcome guests will stay outside where they belong.brPlease respect all our house rules listed in the guidebook provided, as well as the privacy of this quiet community.
