78 Mellis Brook, Downsville, NY 13755

Lovely mid-80's Cape on 4 acres of Catskill Mountain Valley wonder. The paved driveway ('21) off Mellis Brook Road rises slowly up along a beautiful arch of mature pines that create a sheltered, and oh-so-private, setting for this tidy 2 bedroom home. Convenient single floor living with a bedroom and a full bath - with a walk-in tub -- on the main floor. A large upper floor makes a great second bedroom, or you could use it for an office or a studio. The open living/dining room has a slider opening onto a 400+ square foot deck. Enjoy the view out the large bay window over the kitchen sink. The well-placed laundry machines make great use of space and keep life simple and on one floor! The central wood-burning stove in the living room radiates warmth throughout the home. A full basement is a handy-person's dream with a built-in workshop, and a single car garage, plus easy access to all utilities. The roof was redone in 2018, along with a new well pump. The home's boiler is a 2021 model, and the water heater is a 2023! Not much to worry about with this home, and even less when you consider that there is a whole-house generator for an additional level of security. A separate detached 1-car garage provides storage AND workspace. And the garden shed keeps tools clean and dry. Minutes from Downsville, close to Walton, Oneonta and Delhi, this home is all but 2 hours and 9 minutes from the GWB! Property is selling as-is and boundary lines are being adjusted from 8 acres to 4 acres as neighbor is buying their existing easement.
