Big Blue spectacular mountain view - great hiking trails | House in Saugerties
3 Bedroom House in Saugerties
Enjoy this cozy 3-bedroom home perched up above the Catskill woods with a spectacular view of Overlook Mountain, the center of Tibetan Buddhism in North America and recognized as a sacred site by the Iroquois Confederacy at the Council at Onondaga in 1979. All 3 bedrooms lead out onto the west-facing deck for majestic sunsets. Great hiking trails abound and winter ski resorts are a 20-30-min drive.
On the east side of Big Blue you will look out into the forest from the 400 sq ft deck with a BBQ grill and patio table for outdoor meals. In the mornings sunrises filter through the Red American Oak and Shagbark Hickory trees, growing down a forest embankment leading to Plattekill Creek with a bridle path along it for secluded walks. You'll see deer and foxes and chipmunks scurrying around and the occasional black bear lumbering around.
We have very fast wi-fi and one of the 3 bedrooms also serves as a great place to work remotely while looking out at the mountain view. We just renovated the whole house and it has a fabulous kitchen and living space, and a state of the art induction stove.
We are solar powered and use no fossil fuels for cooking or heat, and we're connected to the electric grid so there is never a shortage of electricity but in fact we generate enough power with our solar array that we are mostly feeding the grid.
The master bathroom is a beautiful bright space lined with Portuguese tiles, a lovely place to soak in the tub or the glass shower while looking out the window at the forest.
We are on a quiet country road that makes for easy walks, but there are many trails in the area including the remarkable Sloan Gorge. The renowned Opus 40 sculpture park is 5 minutes away. Also the wonderful Smokehouse of the Catskills is a 5-minute drive. Also kayaking and skiing are activities you can enjoy in the area.
There are several great restaurants in Saugerties and Woodstock that you will find in our guidebook at the house.
