85-87 Yerry Hill

Stone House + Red Cottage = a charming compound on 3 acres right in Woodstock! Two houses each with it’s own privacy, style, and divine connection to nature. The red English cottage (893 sq. feet) has 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. The living room features a lovely river stone fireplace, with a wood stove insert, and beamed ceiling along with new windows and great ceiling to floor book shelves. Round the corner and you’ll find an adorable kitchen and dining area that’s surrounded by windows and looks out onto a private patio space…the perfect place for an English Garden? Hard wood floors throughout. Vaulted ceilings in the two main rooms. The 2 houses are connected by a long looped driveway that sets both dwellings back away from the road. The property is surrounded by trees and green lawns with a shed and barn/car port conveniently sited in the middle. The Stone House (1040 sq. ft.) is picturesque; oozing charm inside and out—with marvelous stone work, vaulted and beamed ceilings, and history in every nook and cranny. You’ll be greeted by a massive stone patio anchored by a hand-built stone fireplace. There's even an iron boot scrape by the door embedded into the walkway. It’s just outside the kitchen just behind an authentic Dutch door and highlighted by the original vaulted log ceiling. A built in corner cabinet and pass-thru window add even more character. Proximity to the patio and dining area make it a wonderful cooks kitchen for entertaining. Little details throughout… like original hinges, door knockers and lion heads, and other wrought iron elements that make this a unique abode. Use both homes for friends and family, or rent one out and live in the other? Thick stone walls create a deeply romantic setting and keep it cozy in winter, while the beamed cathedral ceiling inspires. The original owner was a traveler—check under the loft bed in the second bedroom and you’ll find a secret map of his voyages. This nook could be used for a desk or play area. This room also sports unique portal-shaped windows and a hand-crafted closet. The other bedroom is larger and also captures the quiet contemplative spaces offered by a stone home. The living room has a fantastic stone fireplace with a wood stove insert. The Dutch door at the front is mirrored again by the Dutch door that exits the LR to another massive, oval shaped patio in back that overlooks the lawn and gardens. This is a sunny happy property with a raised bed garden and open lawn surrounded by forest where one can walk right onto trails along the Sawkill River or enjoy the fabulous Yerry Hill-Broadview-Ohayo Mountain walking (or cycling) loop that shares beautiful Catskill views and provides great exercise. Move right in and enjoy! Take the bus up from the city and walk to your home; or walk to the Bear Restaurant, Cub Deli, and Sunfrost Market & Eatery. You’ll have an easy bike to town too for great restaurants and shopping in Woodstock Village.
