About 618 W Settlement Road

Welcome to 618 West Settlement Rd. This extraordinary property is not just a home; it's a lifestyle. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence, the perfect homestead, or a luxurious weekend retreat, this home offers everything you need to live in comfort and style while surrounded by nature's beauty. From the moment you step onto the mahogany covered porch of this stunningly reimagined Center Hall Colonial, it feels like home. Once inside, you're greeted by natural sunlight, comfort, and modern conveniences. This historic beauty dates from circa 1855 and was completely renovated with a contemporary addition in 2006. The first floor exudes easy living. With its many windows, French doors leading out to the stone patio, and sliders to an oversized private deck overlooking the lovely mature landscaped yard, the home seamlessly integrates the beauty of the outdoors with modern indoor living. The living room offers a wood-burning fireplace for those chilly nights. The gourmet kitchen with granite countertops, a unique center island made from 1800's reclaimed barn wood, the Sub-Zero fridge, and the Wolf range are all that any chef could want. The layout is an entertainer's dream. Host everything from cocktails or coffee for two to an intimate dinner party or a grand celebration. Head up either of the staircases and you'll find yourself in the spacious family room, perfect for a night of games and movies, or just chill by the 2nd fireplace for a cozy intimate evening. Enter the primary wing and be welcomed by vaulted ceilings, ample closet space, and more of that beautiful natural light. The spacious primary bath offers a custom tiled shower, double sinks, a wonderful porcelain soaking tub, and a private water closet. On the other side of the family room, you'll encounter the three secondary bedrooms and the shared full bath. Step outside to your enchanted 34+ acre paradise and discover views of the Catskills for days, including Hunter and Windham Mts, a 2-story functioning antique barn, a large shed, and a pond complete with a deck and a screened-in room for the lazy days of summer or perhaps some ice skating when it's cold enough. This is truly a home for all seasons. With radiantly heated floors, central air, a whole-house generator, and the attached heated garage accessed through the mud room, you'll be comfortable no matter what the weather brings. And talk about location, 2.5 hours from NYC and minutes to skiing, Mt. biking, hiking, golf, farm-to-table restaurants, breweries, wineries, and all that the Catskills Mountains offer.
