Nestled in the heart of Mount Tremper, a hidden gem in the Town of Shandaken, Cedar Rest awaits; a tranquil mountain retreat perfectly tucked into the forest. Down a private gravel drive, this thoughtfully renovated sanctuary blends rustic charm with modern convenience, with all the mechanicals, insulation, plumbing, and electric being just a few years old. Inside, the home has rich oak floors that create an organic, cozy vibe throughout. The first floor serves up a spacious bedroom, a full bath, laundry, and a kitchen with ample storage. The main gathering spot is the great room, where a wood-burning stove with massive stone surround anchors the space, making it ideal for winter nights in. Head upstairs to discover two more roomy bedrooms and another full bath, ready for all the guests who will inevitably flock to your forest hideaway. Outside, the magic continues with seasonal mountain views and a seasonal babbling creek along the property's edge. The courtyard will become your go-to spot for summer evenings under the stars. There is another small stone foundation behind the home which could be converted into a shed or studio. Peace and seclusion define this quintessential Ulster County home, yet you are only a 15-minute drive away from Woodstock's vibrant Tinker Street. Whether it is the slopes at Belleayre, Phoenicia-Mt. Tobias Wild Forest, Ashokan Rail Trail and Reservoir or Tremper Mountain and Fire Tower, adventure is always around the corner at Cedar Rest. Just over two hours from NYC, this low-maintenance retreat offers the perfect balance of solitude and comfort. Call now for your private tour! © 2024 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
