Mountain View House
Stunning Catskills Compound
Marketing description
Welcome to Mountain View House, a one-of-a-kind Catskills retreat offering the perfect balance of privacy, flexibility, recreation, and income potential. Set on just under four picturesque acres with panoramic mountain and valley views in the highly sought-after Spruceton Valley of West Kill, this remarkable property is equally suited as a family compound, vacation home, or established investment property. Designed with the character of a mountain chalet and the warmth of a Catskills cabin, the property offers inviting living spaces that embrace the surrounding natural beauty. The three-level main residence is currently configured as three private suites, each with its own entrance, providing exceptional flexibility for extended family, guests, or rental opportunities. The layout can also be easily converted back into one expansive single-family residence, allowing the next owner to tailor the home to their lifestyle. Altogether, the main house offers five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, multiple kitchen areas, a dedicated gym, and warm wood interiors that complement the mountain setting. The heart of the home opens onto a newly constructed covered porch and expansive Trex deck overlooking the heated saltwater pool, creating seamless indoor and outdoor living. Whether entertaining family and friends or enjoying a quiet morning overlooking the mountains, this space quickly becomes the centerpiece of the property. Attached to the main residence are two legal two-bedroom townhomes, each featuring private entrances, full kitchens, spacious living areas, full unfinished basements, and private decks overlooking the pond and surrounding mountains. Whether accommodating extended family or generating rental income, the layout offers exceptional flexibility. Live comfortably in the main residence while renting one or both townhomes, or maximize the property's earning potential by offering all three residences as short-term rentals. Outside, the property is designed for gathering and relaxation in every season. A heated 20' x 40' saltwater pool anchors the backyard, while the hot tub tucked among the trees provides the perfect place to unwind after a day of hiking or skiing. A private fishing pond, fire pit, expansive lawn, and beautifully landscaped grounds offer countless opportunities to enjoy the Catskills lifestyle. Recent improvements include a new roof on the garage and workshop, a Generac generator, and the addition of the covered porch and Trex deck, making the property ready for immediate enjoyment. Located just minutes from West Kill Brewery, Spruceton Inn, Devil's Path, Diamond Notch Falls, West Kill Creek, and Belleayre, Hunter, and Windham Mountain Club, Mountain View House offers easy access to some of the Catskills' best hiking, skiing, fly fishing, dining, and outdoor recreation. Whether you're searching for a private mountain retreat, a place where generations can gather, or a property with proven income potential, Mountain View House offers a rare opportunity to own one of the Catskills' most versatile and memorable properties.
