307 Bostock Rd

Elegant country living midway between Woodstock and Phoenicia. Conveniently located in the Township of Olive, known for its scenic beauty, the Ashokan Reservoir and lower taxes, you will find this country home which has been totally reinvented from its original roots by the current owners. Sited far off a quiet road, the contemporary bi level was expanded and doubled in size in 2012 to create a 4 bedroom 3 bath home with a magnificent and central kitchen sunroom showering the space with light and garden views from its floor to ceiling glass. Light pours in on even the darkest of days. Our interior photos were actually taken on a rainy day! It would be hard to feel gloomy in this space. The kitchen with its large island has a Wolf stove, beautiful stone countertops and a large pantry with a dumbwaiter to easily send your groceries up from the garage. High ceilings and warm wood beams grace the open living and dining areas. Two stone wood burning fireplaces, one in the living room and one in the media room on the lower level keep things toasty in the Fall and Winter and an extensive deck runs along the front of the home with access out from both the living room and primary suite. That suite has a sizeable cedar walk-in closet and office alcove in addition to a very large bathroom with a steam shower and Jacuzzi soaking tub with a wonderful view. The 3 additional bedrooms and a shared bath are on the other end of the house from the primary suite creating a nice sense of privacy for all. One level down you will find a media room/home theatre which doubles as a gym as well as another full bath and large wine room kept at a constant temperature of 54-57 degrees. Accessed from this level is a 2 car garage plus a third garage currently being used as a workshop/storage area and could be reimagined for additional office, craft, workout or sleeping space. The grounds are totally private and if one wanted to do a little clearing there could be a seasonal reservoir view from the living room. Aside from the delightful perennial landscaping that welcomes you initially, the back of the home is a stunning park like oasis with trails, a babbling brook, a fire pit area and very thoughtful and low maintenance landscaping providing year round interest of flowers and foliage as well as a variety of fruit trees and a vegetable garden which could be a wonderful spot for a pool if desired. The property is fully fenced in from the deer and is a gardener's haven with a dramatic mountain woodland backdrop which hugs the property line. Additional pluses: Tesla charger, automatic whole house generator, water treatment system with UV and reverse osmosis to the fridge, 6 heating zones, a shed with electricity. Home can be conveyed fully furnished. Close to skiing, hiking, rail trail, cycling, kayaking and all outdoor amenities. Nearby towns offer fine dining, unique stores, flea markets, farmers markets, live music and theatre.
