A truly unique getaway! Artist designed loft-style mountainside home with sweeping sunset views. Designed like a ship - clever cubbies and storage, efficient layout, great light and ultra-insulated. Huge main room with woodstove for entertaining, yoga, dance or, as owner intended, a magnificent place to paint. Sleek galley kitchen overlooking the deck, a rock pool and the distant mountains opens to a generous dining area with a cathedral ceiling. The two bedrooms are reached by staircases at opposite sides of the great room. One bedroom overlooks the mountains with its own private deck. The other is an open space featuring a cedar Japanese soaking tub. Radiant heat, passive solar. Off beautiful Platte Clove Road, just minutes to Tannersville and handy to skiing in Hunter and Windham and shopping in Catskill. Less than half an hour to Woodstock down the Platte Clove Road (open three seasons a year) and an easy ride to the Thruway.
