About 123 Maben Hollow Road
Tucked away off Oliverea Road in the sleepy hamlet of Big Indian, on a quiet cul de sac across the Esopus Creek, this enchanting retreat spans 51.6 deeded acres across two parcels and offers rare privacy amid its NYS Forest Tax Law-managed woodland and meadow. The 1950 three bedroom, two bath country cottage provides 1,362 sq ft of warm creekside living, complete with a gazebo overlooking the water and a large storage shed. Two deeded State easement trails, one on each side of the property lead through woodland paths to State land behind this property. Along the right side trail sits a beautiful two level barn of roughly 750 sq ft, beside a stunning meadow dotted with old fruit trees and home to a picnic table with benches. Built in 2002, the barn replaced a former second home once sited on the 5.9 acre parcel. Altogether, this is a serene Catskills haven where the sound of the Esopus and the sweep of open land create a timeless sense of calm. Ideally located in the Big Indian-Oliverea Valley, this Catskills home places you within 15 to 45 minutes of Belleayre, Plattekill, and Hunter Mountain ski centers--an easy launch point for winter sports. In warmer months, enjoy Belleayre Lake Beach, vibrant farmers markets, and a wide range of celebrated restaurants across nearby hamlets. With some of the region's most popular Catskill Park trailheads just minutes away, the property is a perfect base for hikers, skiers, and anyone seeking year round outdoor access in a peaceful mountain setting.
