An oversized living room leads into a den w/bluestone fireplace and a striking built-in collection of Fu dogs and wood-carvings on gilded plaques collected from travels to China that depict an epic story. The third stone structure is a 2BR fully-outfitted & stylish cottage, and is connected to a three-bay garage and a greenhouse ready to be restored or turned into a Romanesque walled garden. Additional structures include a tool shed and 3 stall barn, as well as a picnic pavilion with views of Slide Mountain, the tallest peak of the Catskills.The compound is truly park-like, with paths, stone walls, orchards, wildflowers and a centerpiece large pond with its own art island showcasing a sculpture by Michael Lang.
