Remarks: Take this as your invitation to 1780 Roses Brook — a private country escape set in the midst of one of the most gorgeous valleys in the Western Catskills, where the land itself does the talking. The house sits 75 feet back from the road, giving you a level, well-tended front yard with a sense of safety and breathing room. From here, your eye travels straight across the road to a picturesque field climbing toward the ridge above, the whole scene framed by stands of majestic trees. It’s a view that changes with the light and the season, and one you’ll find yourself pausing to take in, again and again. Behind the house, the land drops down toward the lower field and Roses Brook itself, a year-round waterway that brings the property to life in every season. Hike it, hunt it, fish it — 11.30 acres of genuinely diverse, retreat-like terrain is rare to find, and rarer still to find this close to everything. Inside, the home has been freshly updated with new flooring, paint, and appliances throughout an open-concept living space that flows easily between living room, dining area, kitchen, and laundry (hook-ups in place, no W/D with sale). Three bedrooms and two baths offer comfortable, move-in-ready living, while a full-height poured concrete basement adds serious storage and room to grow. Step out onto the back deck and the brook is right there, threading through wide-open natural surroundings that shift beautifully from spring green to autumn gold to winter quiet. Set in horse country and in the South Kortright School District, this is a property built for privacy and recreation without sacrificing convenience — hunting on your own land, nearby state land access, shopping minutes away, and Plattekill Mountain just down the road for skiing whenever the snow falls. Acreage, views, updates, a flowing stream, and four-season recreation, all gathered into one exceptional Catskills offering.

Sunsets, Solitude, 45 acres -- Wild, Private, and Unmistakably Catskills Tucked into the woods on the western slope of a magnificent 45-acre parcel, 1264 Betty Brook Road offers something increasingly rare in the Catskills: genuine privacy without isolation. The driveway curves gracefully off the town-maintained road and disappears into the trees, opening onto a quiet clearing that feels worlds away from anywhere--yet sits just minutes from Bloomville and Delhi. A Porch That Defines the Experience The covered porch is the heart of how this home lives. A thoughtful addition with a gabled roof tied directly into the main roofline, it functions as a true outdoor room--open-air, column-framed, with a Southern front-porch sensibility that invites long mornings with coffee and unhurried evenings watching the sun drop behind the ridge. In warmer months, this is where life happens. Inside: Light, Views, and Wood Heat The main living space opens generously onto kitchen and dining areas, anchored by a Quadra-Fire wood-burning stove capable of heating the entire home. A nearly eight-foot bank of triple windows frames the forested hillside on one side; another wall of windows opens to the valley and the deck beyond. The effect is immersive--you're not looking at the landscape, you're inside it. The kitchen offers a generous prep area, a dual-basin stainless sink set beneath a window with mountain views, a four-burner gas range, and ample cabinetry wrapping a small peninsula. The dining area sits beneath a chandelier, just off a mudroom with propane furnace, 100-amp panel, stacked washer/dryer, and a rear door to a back porch. Comfortable Living Quarters The primary suite includes a queen-sized bedroom with a generous wall of closets and a thoughtfully designed bathroom--dual sinks in an L-shaped corner vanity, a built-in triangular cabinet, a corner soaking tub, separate standing shower, and a striking three-pane skylight that floods the room with natural light. A central hall leads to two additional rooms--a flexible smaller space ideal as an office or single bedroom, and a guest bedroom that easily accommodates a twin--plus a full guest bathroom. The Land: 45± Acres of Catskills Drama This is where the property truly distinguishes itself. The southwest-facing slope captures spectacular sunsets, with light pouring across the deck through the afternoon. Hiking the land reveals dramatic rock outcrops, steep slopes, and cliffs that rise several hundred feet--a landscape with real character. In spring, fields of wild ramps emerge for foragers and chefs. Systems and Specifications The 1993 single-wide manufactured home was purchased new and sits on a concrete slab, meticulously maintained. Even has a small hand-crafted water-fall. A 650-foot well includes a hand pump backup; water was tested two years ago. The DEC-approved septic system uses a 1,000-gallon tank. Two AmeriGas propane tanks serve the property, with NYSEG electric and DTC fiber-optic internet. The driveway--graded with thoughtful S-curves and excellent drainage--shows no rutting and remains highly serviceable year-round. Location Situated in the heart of Delaware County with authentic Catskills character close at hand: • Bloomville (minutes away) -- home to the Catskill Scenic Trail • Delhi (~10 minutes) -- county seat, SUNY Delhi, hospital, restaurants, and shopping • Stamford (~15 minutes) -- antique shops, Mount Utsayantha, and the Northern Catskills • Oneonta (~35-40 minutes) -- Hartwick College, SUNY Oneonta, and full-service amenities From Betty Brook Road to the George Washington Bridge: approximately three hours.
