Sit poolside this summer after a nice hike or climb in the Gunks. Here just in time, this sweet retreat from the daily grind will surely check off all the boxes on the vacation home wish list. It is a place where you can feel like you are away and disconnected from your other life and work. Located in one of the most sought after Hudson Valley locations, nestled virtually right into the foothills of the Shawangunk Ridge and Mohonk Preserve. Just over an hour from the GW bridge to New Paltz exit 18 on the Thruway then in another 10 easy minutes you're passing through the village, over the Wallkill River, and then wind past picturesque farmland and apple orchards where you arrive to your no work all play escape. The home itself is well maintained and offers wood floors, master suite and private bath that walks out to back deck and private wooded view. Two additional bedrooms and bath along with two living areas that provide separation when desired. Front and back decks to enjoy all nature has to offer. Doesn't matter if you're young or old, you can enjoy the stream bordering the property as well as explore all the extra wooded acreage around the house. This is a home for all seasons and one you will enjoy coming to because of its convenience to so many great places and things to do. Come and go as often as you'd like, this property will have good resale value long term, and with the New Paltz address and schools how can you go wrong with such a high demand location. Seasonal view of the Gunks most of the year and within minutes you can easily visit places like Minnewaska State Park, Mohonk, and Sam's Point Preserves to hike, bike, climb or cross-country ski. There's no shortage of streams, creeks, and rivers here- in fact two public boat launches on the Wallkill River in New Paltz, both less than 10 minutes from this home make it easy to always be out on the water and enjoy the beauty of the stunning Shawangunk Ridge via the river. Also not far away is Lipman Park, that has extensive mountain biking trails, and the Shadowland Theatre in nearby Ellenville, where you can relax and take in a show after a day on the mountain. We aren't done yet though- there's so much for to do in the nearby area and a bit further north, including tubing the Esopus creek, hiking on trails throughout the Catskills and surrounding areas, partaking in the many summer festivals and concerts, or tearing up the slopes in the winter at any of the 3 major local ski centers. Nearby hot spots like High Falls, Hurley, Stone Ridge, and Rosendale offer some of the areas best walkable rail trails you can find in the Hudson Valley, or take a stroll through the quaint villages and eclectic shops. The village of New Paltz, just a short drive from the home, also has a variety of quirky and fun shops to peruse on Main Street and in the Water Street Market, an open air market containing shops, antique stores, restaurants, art galleries and more. There's plenty of restaurants in the village that span any cuisine you could crave, or stop by the weekly farmers market, or Wallkill View Farms, one of the largest farm stands in the area, on your way home to pick up some of the freshest, local produce to cook up for dinner, and a bottle of wine from one of the many local wineries on the Shawangunk Valley wine trail. The home's location makes it a perfect weekend getaway, or would also be a wonderful full-time residence. Traveling to and from NYC is a breeze from this location with the Metro north train in Poughkeepsie less than 30 minutes away and the Trailways bus stop and NYS Thruway about a ten minute drive from your front door, for a roughly 90 minute total commute. The best of both worlds can be found here!
