The Waterfall HouseThe Catskills are among the oldest, and arguably, most beautiful mountains in the world. Gracefully sculpted over eons, the watersheds have carved breathtaking settings of tranquility and abundance in the forests and rock faces of the weathered mountains. Like a microcosm of the region, this three-acre parcel may be the single most beautiful encapsulation of Catskill wonder available for purchase. Easily accessible and yet able to simultaneously create a sense of other-worldly privacy, the mini park-like setting is unique in the region. Long known as The Waterfall House, this property is defined by the spectacular waterfalls that bound its eastern border. SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL 3-tier YEAR-ROUND WATERFALLS. Worn in a few places, the residence was once filled with the joyous and playful sounds of generations swimming in the hand-crafted pool (now in need of repair) set against the mountainside. Plentiful plantings are in place and could be brought back to a profusion of seasonal color. Walk the trail to the top of the lot where you will find a field perfect for a gazebo or potentially higher building site. Gorgeous is not a strong enough word to describe this setting.The main house offers a first-floor bedroom and a central full bath. There is a spacious living room with tryptic windows perfectly framing the view of the waterfalls. An ingenious rear deck encloses a sauna room and hot tub that is open on one side with screened walls. Imagine soaking in a warm water bath as the harmonious melody of the splashing waterfall washes away your every care. The huge (19'x12') kitchen is open and airy with picture windows and a door to the side yard. The 2nd floor has two more full bedrooms and a small office space PLUS a second full bathroom.The apartment over the detached two-car garage was a one-time painting studio, complete with a full bedroom, kitchen, and a bathroom. Create in your painting studio, then walk the classic Catskill forest and waterfall trail and end up warming your feet by a small outdoor fire on your spacious deck as you look at the ever-present 30 foot waterfall just feet away. The entire complex will need a page turned, but your dream Catskill cottage along a breathtaking multi-tier waterfall ( 3 falls in one) is waiting for you to write that story. Minutes from the villages of Andes and Margaretville and all the Catskills have to offer, and under three hours from NYC.
