Take a Virtual Tour
Your modern country oasis awaits, down a private road merely six miles from the heart of world-famous Woodstock. A contemporary, converted post-and-beam barn, the hand-built Handy’s Walk is set on five acres amid a meandering meadow, with mesmerizing panoramic mountain views from the 55-foot wall of windows inside and the oversized deck overlooking the heated saltwater pool built into bluestone and surrounded by stone walls.
This three bed, two and a half bath retreat has been fully renovated on all three floors, with new plumbing, electric, heating, wide-board, weathered white oak floors, ceilings, millwork, and cedar and copper roof. The original hand-hewn beams and barn structure remain, restored and enhanced by shiplap siding, premium lighting and luxury finishes. An original barn door opens to the stone poolside patio.
Occupying the entire right side of the home, the brand-new chef’s kitchen features two islands, long stretches of stone countertop, dark-stained minimalist cabinetry with heavy-gauge, aged brass hardware, subway tiles and large-scale Bertazonni stainless appliances. An adjacent half bath compliments the kitchen with its cabinetry and counter space.
Just beyond is a three-story, 10-foot-wide stone fireplace built by local master builders, which serves as an anchor to the grand wooden stairway that takes you to the second and third floors.
On the lower floor are two large bedrooms, one with a built-in gas fireplace, which open to the pool through eight-foot sliding glass doors; a designer bathroom with glass walled shower, custom cabinetry, restoration-hardware lighting and hex-shaped stone floor; and full-size washer/dryer.
With its original beams, cathedral ceilings and cupola, the third floor is dedicated to the master bedroom suite with picture windows offering uninterrupted views of the sunsets and starry nights over the majestic Catskill Mountains.
The en suite bathroom, built into one of the peaks of the house, features a free-standing jet spa tub, glass shower, stone floor, pedestal sink and elegant lighting.
Outside, the property is professionally landscaped, with new mature evergreen plantings; the blacktop circular drive leads you to the stately home entrance and the two-story, original wood-beamed one-car garage, studio or guest house.
Less than 15 minutes from the center of Woodstock, this sunlit luxurious mountain escape offers warmth and seclusion, with true country ambiance and all the modern amenities.
