Set against a breathtaking Catskills backdrop, this 18± acre retreat offers a beautifully renovated contemporary home plus expansive land with soul-stirring views in every direction. <br> <br>The home is perfectly positioned to overlook sweeping meadows and dramatic mountain ridgelines, all set along a quiet, town-maintained road. Inside, the residence has been thoughtfully updated to feel warm, inviting, & effortlessly livable. A practical mudroom entry leads into a stunning open great room with soaring ceilings & wood floors around a cozy woodstove. Electric heat zones allow for flexible, efficient comfort throughout the seasons. <br> <br>A three-season room draws the outdoors in, offering endless opportunities to take in the views. Step outside onto the expansive deck, and you’ll understand why this setting is so special—sunrises over the mountains, golden afternoon light across the fields, and sunsets that feel almost unreal. <br> <br>The main level features a serene primary bedroom and a beautifully finished full bath with tiled tub/shower. Upstairs, 2 additional bedrooms & half bath provide space for guests, family, or creative pursuits. One bedroom includes a whimsical crow’s nest loft—an inspired hideaway for reading, dreaming, or admiring the views. A full basement offers excellent potential for future living space. <br> <br>Beyond the home, the land is extraordinary. The 8 acres roll out in gently sloping fields, woods, & open skies—ideal for those seeking privacy, room to roam, or the opportunity to expand. Whether you envision gardens, trails, additional structures, or simply uninterrupted space to enjoy nature, the land elevates this property into something truly special. <br> <br>Located in the heart of Hamden, you’re surrounded by the charm that makes the western Catskills so beloved: hiking, Delaware River, historic covered bridge, vintage baseball team, and the welcoming Hamden Inn, a favorite gathering spot for locals and visitors alike. <br> <br>This is more than a home—it’s an 18-acre Catskills lifestyle, where views, land, and thoughtful design come together in perfect harmony. A place to unplug, to gather, and to experience the quiet magic of upstate New York.
