31 Moonlight Lane, Saugerties, NY 12477

MOONLIGHT LANE You've been looking for a while now. Not because nothing's available, it's more because nothing has felt like you. Wind down Moonlight Lane, and that changes. Set down a private road on just under 12 wooded acres between Woodstock and Saugerties, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence has the relaxed energy of a private creative retreat. High ceilings, exposed wood beams, expansive windows, skylights, and warm natural materials give the interior a sense of volume and character, while the surrounding forest becomes part of the view. Passive-solar design helps keep the house comfortable throughout the seasons, and multiple wood and propane stoves add warmth, ambiance, and more than a little Catskills romance. The dramatic great room is the heart of the home, with soaring ceilings, walls of glass, and enough space for a grand piano, a long dinner table, and a houseful of friends. Just beyond it, two substantial carved-wood doors open into a large flex room currently used as a music studio. For an artist, filmmaker, designer, or remote professional, it could become a studio, editing room, library, or wonderfully private office. Upstairs, all three bedrooms continue the home's sense of volume, each with high ceilings and views into the surrounding woods. The primary suite is especially memorable, with a soaring wood-clad ceiling, exposed beams, skylights, sliding glass doors to a private deck, and an almost treehouse-like connection to the landscape. Its spacious en-suite bath features another vaulted ceiling, a jetted soaking tub, double vanity, and abundant natural light. The two additional bedrooms have their own warm, airy character, making them equally inviting for family, weekend guests, or creative pursuits. The home's architectural character provides an inspiring foundation for its next owner, offering generous proportions and distinctive details that are increasingly hard to find. There is room to personalize and reimagine the spaces over time, while preserving the creative spirit and wonderfully unconventional point of view that make the house so memorable. Outside, the property feels both expansive and intimate. Established raised-bed gardens, berry plantings, meandering paths, a small water feature, and forest clearings create a series of places to wander, garden, gather, or simply disappear for the afternoon. A window-filled 10'x20' outbuilding offers additional possibilities as a studio, workshop, or office, while a second shed provides practical storage. Then evening arrives, and Moonlight Lane earns its name. String lights illuminate the garden and outdoor gathering areas, turning the property into an enchanting backdrop for long dinners, impromptu performances, and late-night conversations under the trees. It is easy to imagine weekends here stretching far beyond their original plans. For all its seclusion, the location is exceptionally convenient, less than 10 minutes from both Woodstock and Saugerties and within easy reach of the region's restaurants, farmers markets, music venues, festivals, hiking trails, and the greater creative community. Hunter and Windham are close enough for winter weekends on the mountain. Full-time home, weekend escape, or a private place to make something meaningful, this is a property with rhythm, soul, and room for reinvention. The next chapter is ready to be written. *** OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED ***
