First time on the market having been in the hands of the same family since being built comes one for the mid-century and Phoenicia fans. This funky and beautiful hamlet has been noted by many as one of the coolest small towns in the country and is certainly one of the real Belles of the Catskills. On offer is a low maintenance, cozy vintage Cape located a stone's throw from the Esopus creek where you can fly fish and swim, but the house sits "high and dry," safely out of the flood plain, in the Phoenicia Flats. "The Flats" was affectionately named some years back by locals, it is the gateway to the town's desirable Woodland Valley area and a charming residential neighborhood just one mile from the village, directly above the Creek, with its heartbeat being Esopus Avenue with its charming mix of vintage cottages, cabins, and homes. Enjoy being part of a real mountain neighborhood, with the sounds of the creek and nature coming in through the screens. Hikers, a branch of the Long Path is a mere 15 minute walk away and other notable hiking trails are close by, as are Belleayre and Hunter for the skiers. The house features one story living at its finest, with three legal bedrooms (though one is currently set up as a home office) and one bathroom, along with a generous living room which flows to the light-filled dining room and nice sized kitchen. There is a huge full basement below and the high ceilinged attic above offers eight feet of height and the possibility of dormering it and creating more living space for those thinking that expansion someday could be in the cards! The parcel includes a private back yard and a nice front lawn, with a huge driveway that can accommodate at least four cars. For those looking to work from home, super high speed cable internet from Spectrum is readily available. Phoenicia offers a lovely quality of life, with its many eateries, shops, galleries, theater, farmers market and annual Festival of the Voice, all in a majestic setting located in the heart of the Catskills. Woodstock is 20 minutes away, Kingston 30 minutes, and the GWB just two hours, with Trailways bus service available to the Port Authority. This is an all-too rare opportunity for anyone wanting a reasonably priced primary or second home in a very lovable and convenient town.
