Description
Nestled in the heart of the Catskills, just 2 hours north of New York City, this timeless post & beam country home awaits. On 10 private acres, this 4 BR/4BA has elegant simplicity, with a flowing open interior, 3 floors of living space, an abundance of natural light, and idyllic country views from every room. Hand-hewn beams, wide-plank wood floors, and a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning fireplace warm the open spaces. Anchored by a welcoming formal entry and a gracious central stairway, the floorplan is ideal for entertaining. The living room, with its fieldstone fireplace, is surrounded on 3 sides by screened-in porches, and a bluestone patio (& swing!), perfect for morning coffees and alfresco dinners. The kitchen is a modern chef's dream, with touches of country charm. There's a large butcher block island with prep sink, 36'' gas range, soapstone countertops, classic farm sink, undercounter beverage cooler, large pantry, and even an imported woodstove with baking capabilities. The primary suite has a walk-in closet and an ensuite bath with double vanity, elegant clawfoot tub and separate glass shower. A sampling of the myriad features in this custom home include: Library/office room, family room with soaring ceiling, 2 large bonus rooms, media room, exercise room, additional office, 2 laundry rooms, mudroom w/radiant floors, an automatic back-up generator, solar panels and geothermal systems. There's an attached 2-car garage, and plans for an inground saline pool have been completed. The property is ideally situated: 30 minutes to skiing at Hunter or Belleayre and minutes from Woodstock, Kingston, and Phoenicia with the Ashokan Reservoir and incredible hiking trails just down the road. Your Catskills hideaway awaits.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAn extremely inappropriate cross of boundaries between teachers and students. Numerous teachers have slept with students. Students feel unsafe and watched as if the teachers are predators. When brought to administration, little was done to make the student feel safe. Administration cares more about protecting their reputation than protecting the students.Other Review2y ago - Reginald Bennett Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have been very happy with the experience my son has had at Bennett. His teachers have been amazing, and it's a very warm and engaging environment for students and families. Communication is great, and their learning philosophy aligns very well with my own. I love that the children are given the opportunity to learn real instruments and even get to keep them over the summer to practice. There isn't tons of homework either, which is great! They let kids be kids. And the children are SO different here than at my son's previous school. They're generally respectful and pleasant to be around, so I'm glad my child is among kids who are a positive influence.Parent Review9mo ago - Onteora Middle School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs a parent of Onteora Middle and High school students who have only been enrolled in the district for the past few years, I was more than pleased with this school, however, the administration is terrible, and I agree with the one parent, the students are horrible and bullying is not addressed, and as of this year a newly appointed Vice president of the middle school, will completely ruin the reputation of this school by the time is done with it.Parent Review8mo ago
