Spectacular Mountain & Valley Views—Streamside.

A beautifully renovated getaway located in the heart of the Catskill Mountains.

Upon entering this gorgeous retreat, you will be instantly taken by the designer's attention to detail. Enjoy the open floor plan kitchen with soapstone countertops overlooking the amazing vaulted great room with spectacular views of the farm, valley, and surrounding mountains.

The space
Indulge in restful nights within thoughtfully designed rooms: sink into luxury on a plush king bed in the master bedroom, find comfort in the antique twin poster bed room, or experience a unique treehouse-style pull-down stairs loft, offering two twin beds overlooking the vaulted great room and picturesque scenery.

Unwind completely with the state-of-the-art steam shower, complete with chromotherapy and soothing music. For leisurely moments, relax in the TV nook equipped with a 65" flatscreen TV and a cozy sectional sofa.

Step outdoors onto an expansive covered porch to breathe in the refreshing scent of pine trees and the melodic sounds of the babbling brook. Enjoy grilling on the gas grill, gather around the fire pit, or recline in swivel chairs and rockers, all while immersing yourself in the lush forest and the serene sounds of Erts Brook.

Additionally, savor breathtaking views from the charming rustic screen house, offering vistas of the picturesque farm valley, grazing animals, and expansive mountain scenery. It's an invitation to experience tranquility and natural beauty in every detail.
