138 Stoney Clove LN Chichester, NY 12416

The magic of the Catskills fills every inch of this impeccably renovated mid-century gem.The current owners, only the third to call this special place home, have lovingly created a dwelling that is as serene as it is beautiful. No stone has been left unturned! The layout is open with a lofty living/dining/kitchen area separated by a hallway to two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Featuring cathedral ceilings and bleached oak floors throughout, as well as seven large skylights, fourteen recently replaced windows, and three full-height glass doors, the light is just astounding. Not to mention the 260-square-foot cedar deck that extends the living room into the treetops and the Catskill mountains. Part of the house's 1.32 acres fronts Warner Creek, a great place to cool off in the heat of summer. There's also a bluestone deck adjacent to a landscaped yard with stone planting beds and a manicured hillside, all planted with native grasses, peonies, a mature Japanese maple, a butterfly bush, hydrangeas, and too many more flowers and plants to name. This home's new owner has only waited for these cultivated plantings to bloom each spring. Back inside, the kitchen is designed for people who love to cook and entertain. Custom cabinetry, Carrera marble counters, a large island with sink and seating, Wolf stovetop, Bosch oven and dishwasher, Fisher-Paykel refrigerator, and European fixtures, hardware, and lighting are all laid out for maximum ease of use. A combination of drawers, extra-height pantry, utility closet, and upper cabinets provide tons of storage. Neatly hidden behind double doors is a stacked Bosch washer/dryer, too. The bedrooms on either side of the central hallway are airy and compact, each with a large closet. Both bathrooms have custom Douglas fir vanities, Grohe fixtures, one-inch ceramic wall tiles, and striking Moroccan cement-tile floors. The primary bathroom and bedroom are ensuite. There's still more. Out back, the windowed, heated shed is totally flexible for use as a creative writing or art studio, a meditation/yoga space, or a workshop. It also has a wall of deep closets for additional storage. Beneath the house, the lighted crawl space is fully lined in a heavy-weight white vapor barrier and features a Santa Fe dehumidifier. The heating throughout the house is zoned. Notably, the CPOA (Chichester Property Owners Association) welcomes community members, for a small annual fee, to make use of its nearby clubhouse, privately maintained swimming hole, and a changing array of seasonal events. 138 Stoney Clove Lane blends natural beauty with contemporary comfort and is not to be missed. Just 3.5 miles from Phoenicia, it's in easy reach of the town's eateries and shops, as well as those in Boiceville, Woodstock, and Tannersville. Skiers can choose between the slopes at Hunter (15 minutes up Route 214), Belleayre, and Windham. Hiking trails are everywhere and the Ashokan Rail Trail is a perfect place for so many outdoor activities. Come explore!
