SECLUDED SAUGERTIES GEM. Wend your way through a residential neighborhood in Barclay Heights, turn onto Dewitt Drive to the very end and behold a supremely private country home - hidden from view, built on granite rock, high on a hill above Esopus Creek with stunning mountain and water views. Upon entering this mid-century home, you can go either left - into an elegant living room with a fireplace and an enormous picture window that showcases a spectacular view - or you can go right - into the formal dining room for casual meals or special occasions. The den, with yet another fireplace, has sliders that open to a deck that overlooks a panoramic vista. The kitchen with small eat-in area, laundry room, half bath and a screened porch comprise the first floor. This screened porch, accessed from the back door, offers yet another spot to take in the mountains, the sunset, the creek and the woods. Some tree-topping will open the view significantly. The second story features 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The super spacious, sun-filled primary bedroom is downright regal. A separate walk-in hall closet - really more of a room, offers storage galore or could be re-purposed as a space for exercise, play, hobbies, collections... A pathway along the side of the home leads down to a small beach, and a partial staircase that awaits completion will also provide access to the water and the notion of adding your own dock. Just down the street, follow the signs to Esopus Bend Nature Preserve, a 161-acre nature preserve with trails that lead right down to the riverbank. Your daily private nature walk! The circular driveway can accommodate about 6 vehicles and the oversized 2-car garage has a large loft for storage, play space, etc. A high efficiency IBC propane heating system was installed 2 years ago. Septic was pumped in 2020. Minutes to the Thruway, Saugerties Village, Adams Fairacre Farms, Kingston, Rhinebeck and Woodstock. Under 30 minutes to skiing at Hunter Mountain. A local shopping strip is a bike ride away. This is an estate sale and the property is being sold ''As-Is.'' Any updates or renovations will only enhance the value of this unique property in a most extraordinary setting. © 2023 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
