Welcome to the Alameda Lake House, a private Catskills retreat offering lake frontage and access, 6.8 acres, and a peaceful setting surrounded by woods. With approximately 1,850 square feet, 3 bedrooms, and 2.5 bathrooms, this home combines a relaxed lake-house feel with plenty of space inside and out. The heart of the home features high ceilings with exposed beams, wood floors, and large windows overlooking the lake, filling the space with natural light and bringing the view indoors. The bathrooms have been updated, including a newer main bathroom, while the open layout makes the home comfortable for both everyday living and entertaining. A large back deck overlooks the lake and expansive backyard, creating the perfect place for morning coffee, outdoor dinners, or simply enjoying the quiet. A front porch offers another place to unwind, while three sheds provide plenty of additional storage. The property includes frontage on both sides of Alameda Road, adding to the acreage and privacy. Tucked among the trees, the setting feels secluded while opening up beautifully toward the water. The non-motorized lake makes for a peaceful atmosphere without the noise of boat traffic—ideal for fishing, paddling, reading by the water, or simply enjoying the peace and quiet. With lake frontage, wooded privacy, generous outdoor space, and beautiful water views, Alameda Lake House offers the kind of setting that’s hard to replicate.

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.
