Property Description

It is the last week of August and the door has been open since June. The stream is going behind the house the way it has all summer. Everything you own sits within 30 feet of where you are standing, and not one piece of it is asking anything from you tonight. That is what a house this size actually gives you. It takes almost nothing to run and it never turns into the project that eats your years, so your evenings stay yours and so do your Saturdays. Melody Lake is a few minutes down the road, 18 acres of water the woods keep quiet, and the stream that leaves it runs along the back edge of this lot close enough to hear through a screen in April. The road ends just past here, which means the only traffic is the handful of people who live on it. Everything inside happens on one level, and once you have lived that way it is difficult to argue for anything else. The kitchen opens straight into the living and dining space with nothing walled off between them, so wherever you are in the house you are still in the room. 9-foot ceilings run through all of it, which is why 1,200 square feet feels open rather than careful. The pantry keeps the counters clear. The laundry sits on the main floor a few steps from the rooms that fill it. The bedrooms are split, the main one set off on its own side with a full bath, the other two together with the second full bath between them and everything else. That separation is worth more than the square footage suggests. It means quiet on one side of the house while the other side is awake. The covered porch across the front adds 150 square feet you will never pay to heat and will use from the first warm stretch in April until the end of October. It looks out at a quiet lane and a lot of trees, and you will end up out there most nights without ever deciding to. None of it has been built yet, so the floors and the cabinets and the color of the front door are still open questions with your name on them. You get to walk into a finished house and find your own taste already living in it. The county is there whenever you want it. The O and W Rail Trail runs 4.4 miles along the Neversink for a morning that costs nothing. Holiday Mountain puts an afternoon on the hill 12 minutes from the driveway. Bethel Woods is 25 minutes when something worth seeing is on the lawn, and Resorts World and the Kartrite waterpark sit right up the road on the nights you want a crowd instead of crickets. Monticello covers the ordinary errands in under 10 minutes, and Manhattan is under 2 hours when it has to be. Underneath is a full unfinished basement matching the footprint above it, so the extra room you will want in five years is already bought and simply waiting. Town water, town sewer, central air, forced air heat, every system in it new. You will not spend your years here working on this house. You will spend them living in it, which is exactly what it was drawn to let you do.
