Tucked away in the hills above the village of Margaretville and unpretentiously hugging the ridge is this magnificent custom, architect designed Catskills country home on 5.1 manageable acres with a beautiful view of the distant mountain ranges. Situated towards the end of the cul-de-sac, tranquility, privacy, and the caressing sounds of nature surround this manicured hideaway. The expansive deck allows for multiple lounging, dining al fresco and entertainment zones; great spaces to relax and get lost in the amazing distant vistas.

This remodeled and expanded home is unique. Wedged along the terraced ridge, the home consists of three distinct wings and is being offered fully furnished and equipped. On entering the central entry space, the vaulted ceilings of the living and dining area, kitchen, breakfast area and sunroom add depth and character to the ground level living spaces. The right-side wing of the home consists of the formal sitting room with wood burning fireplace with fieldstone surround. An inner foyer leads to the primary bedroom suite of rooms comprising the home office, the large primary bedroom with ensuite bathroom and ample walk-in closet. On the left wing is the open kitchen with custom fixtures, granite counter tops and premium appliances, also the casual dining room, powder room, pantry, and an inviting sunroom with French doors from the dining space and sunroom onto the spacious deck.

There are separate staircases to the lower-level spaces. The first staircase accessed from the main entry leads to a set of three bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, laundry facility and the recreation hall with French doors opening to the blue stone terrace and out to the inviting gazebo and rolling lawns beyond. The second staircase, accessed from the more private primary wing, leads down to the exercise/work out and spa lounge with changing area and full bathroom. Dominating this lounge is a Tulikivi soapstone wood burning fireplace which also serves the generous sized sauna which has a wave ceiling for effective heat distribution. This space could be repurposed to a fifth bedroom suite if needed. Also conveniently located on this level is the mechanical room with full laundry area and supplies storage.

Here is your chance to be part of the Catskills country home lifestyle and experience the serenity and beauty of these pristine mountains, enjoy wholesome farm to table cuisine, explore quaint hamlets and villages, hike the network of Catskills Park trails, go fishing the world class streams and creeks or bike ride along quiet country roads then relax in your private retreat at Kristens Ridge.
