4266 Route 212, Lake Hill, NY 12448
Come settle into the quintessential Woodstock lifestyle, a warm, welcoming farmhouse that invites both quiet mornings and spirited gatherings. The wide rocking-chair front porch sets the tone from the moment you arrive, the perfect place to linger with friends over a drink or lose yourself in a book through the long, golden months of summer.
Step just above the house and discover the real showstopper: a stunning inground pool with a charming pool house and its own outdoor shower, all sited to capture sweeping valley and mountain views. It's a dream sequence that plays beautifully from Memorial Day through the first cool days of fall.
When the seasons turn, the sun-filled living room carries that same expansive spirit indoors. A wood-burning stove anchors the space with warmth and visual charm, its glow visible from both the living room and the generous dining room beyond, a natural gathering spot for long, happy meals. The dining room flows easily into a big country kitchen, and from there, a side door leads out to a patio and BBQ area. A few steps up brings you to a sunny play yard and the woods beyond, ideal for children and dogs to roam.
Inside, a gracious staircase rises to a second-floor landing with its own rocking chair nook and a large window overlooking the trees, a quiet reading perch well above the activity below. The spacious primary bedroom runs the full depth of the house, with windows on two walls that give it an airy, light-filled quality rare in homes of this vintage. A third bedroom sits on the ground level off the living room, making it ideal for guests who appreciate privacy. The roomy full bath upstairs, originally a small bedroom, offers comfortable proportions, and an additional small bedroom currently serves as the owner's studio.
The grounds have been thoughtfully developed: a sunny-side garden and an al fresco dining patio on one level give way to a shaded play area enclosed by a dog fence, all backed by open woodland ready for hiking and exploration. Whether you're hosting a crowd, raising a family, or simply seeking your own piece of the Catskills, this farmhouse delivers.
