New home with awesome views from every room, especially from the open rooftop deck with hot tub to sit and view the stars at night, and the Ashokan Reservoir and the Catskill Mountains beyond. The house and the views are spectacular. Pictures do not do it justice. There are amazing views with abundant wildlife, bald eagles flying past, wild turkeys grazing, deer passing by, and many birds nesting around the property, an amazing wildlife setting nestled among highly cultivated flower and herb gardens. The house was completed in Jan 2008 as an Energy Star home with radiant floor heating throughout. Half of the electricity is provided by solar panels. All appliances are new and the two car garage has electric garage openers. All the amenities are included that you could ever want in a home. Located at the southern side of the Ashokan Reservoir, the location is ideal just a few minutes from the Thruway. The "Crafts People" store is only a couple of miles away. Woodstock Village with its fabulous restaurants, art displays, and music is just 8 miles away. Kingston with its theaters and shopping is about 10 miles away. Skiing at Belleayre or Hunter is just a half hour further up the valley into the mountains. It is close to natural wonders of the Ashokan Reservoir spillway and gorge, fishing on the Esopus Creek and the Ashokan Reservoir, biking and hiking on many trails both level and mountain. Golf and other outdoor activities are nearby. Boating, fishing, hiking, biking are all convenient with the Ashokan Reservoir and the Esopus Creek. The nearby NYC-DEP land is across street with short trails to shore of Ashokan Reservoir. Keep a fishing boat on the Reservoir with a NY-DEP Permit and enjoy rowing around and fishing on the enormous two basin lake of the Ashokan. Note that a permit from NYC-DEP is required for pedestrian access, fishing, and for the rowboat. There are many miles of biking and jogging trails around the Reservoir and nearby mountains. The solar panel electric system contributes over half the electrical requirements. The free-standing Vermont Castings Stove uses propane fuel.
