Three-Building Country Property on Gin Hill

Main House — 1,777 sq ft, c. 1860

A classic two-story American farmhouse with Victorian and Greek Revival details, including a welcoming covered rocking-chair porch and the property’s signature two-story bay windows that define the kitchen and dining area. Cherrywood floors run through the open main level, anchored by a newer Jøtul wood-burning stove that keeps the living area cozy all winter. A glassed-in summer room at the rear functions as a second family room and opens directly to a fenced stone patio for seamless indoor-outdoor living and entertaining.

The first floor includes a spacious bedroom with three porch-facing windows and an en-suite full bath featuring arched windows and a clawfoot tub—ideal as a primary suite or private guest quarters. A half-bath is conveniently located off the mudroom and pantry. Upstairs, a center-hall stair with a carved baluster leads to three additional bedrooms—including one with a hidden stained-glass pocket door—and a full bath, providing flexible options for family, guests, or office space.

Art Studio — 2,168 sq ft, built 1993

A purpose-built 30’ x 70’ studio with high ceilings, an expansive open floor plan, and a durable poured concrete floor—designed for serious creative or commercial work. The building is outfitted with 200-amp electric service, a wood stove, workshop area, full bath, and kitchenette for full-day or extended use. A rear roll-up door allows easy access for large-scale work, equipment, or vehicles. The space functions equally well as a working studio, fabrication shop, gallery, or flexible commercial use, offering significant potential for income-producing or professional activity. The poured concrete floor has radiant heat fired by a new on-demand propane heating system (2026).

Guest Cottage — 1,866 sq ft

A Gambrel-roofed cottage with classic white clapboard siding that lives comfortably as both guest quarters and additional work or wellness space. One side features a self-contained one-bedroom suite with a full bath and a compact, well-designed kitchen—ideal for visiting family, longer-term guests, or short-term rental opportunities. The other side is currently configured as a workout and movement studio (yoga, Peloton, TRX), finished in reclaimed barn wood for warmth and character, and easily adapts to an additional studio, home office, or expanded living space.

Grounds — 15 Acres

The 15-acre setting is designed for true country living and low-key resort-style enjoyment. Outdoor amenities include an in-ground pool with a newer liner and pump, plus a pool house with seating areas for summer gatherings. A productive vegetable garden with greenhouse, a potting shed, and a small animal barn (with room for a garden tractor) support both hobby farming and weekend gardening. Mature plantings and open meadow surround the buildings, offering valley views and regular hawk and eagle activity overhead—a daily reminder of the surrounding Catskill landscape.
