Esopus Creek Hideaway: Surrounded by nature's splendor on 6.9 acres of scenic residential land, this exceptional property borders the tranquil Esopus Creekâa renowned haven for fly fishing enthusiasts. Picture your future home here, a perfect canvas for creating a serene sanctuary where you can gath...er, explore, and recharge amidst the fresh air and open landscapes. Currently featuring a cozy hunting cabin with electricity already in place, this parcel offers a unique opportunity to start fresh while enjoying the practicality of a rustic retreat. Imagine designing your dream home that takes full advantage of the breathtaking surroundings, with ample space for outdoor activities and peaceful contemplation. The property's feasibility study from October 2024 confirms that it can support an onsite septic system for a single residential home, meeting NYS Health Department requirements. Secluded yet accessible, this parcel is graced with stunning mountain vistas and the soothing sounds of the meandering creek. This stretch of the Esopus Creek is known for its wild rainbow trout, with fish averaging 8-12 inches and occasional trophy individuals exceeding twenty inches during late fall and early spring. There's also a decent population of brown trout, providing an exciting addition to your fishing adventures. Both Phoenicia and Pine Hill libraries have fishing rods (and ukuleles!) that you can check out. On hot summer days, take a refreshing dip on your property or venture out to some of the great local swimming holes (shhh!). People will open up about great swimming holes--to people that live in Shandaken. For winter sports enthusiasts, Belleayre Mountain Ski Center is just a short drive away, offering excellent skiing and snowboarding options. In the warmer months, enjoy activities like mountain biking and canoeing at Woodland Valley State Park. Local attractions abound, including the Empire State Railway Museum in Phoenicia, where you can delve into the region's rich history. Explore the charming streets of Phoenicia, home to eclectic shops such as The Mystery Spot Antiques and Classic American comfort food with a modern twist at The Phoenicia Diner or Bettina Cafe and Market. Peekamoose Restaurant has been around since 2003 serving farmhouse cuisine with many daily and seasonal specialties and cocktails plus a fabulous wine list. Enjoy around the nightly bonfire with lots of convenient outdoor seating. The Pine Hill community center and Formerly Yours in Phoenicia are arguably the best thrift stores in Ulster County. Shandaken has an energized Parks and Rec committee that has raised significant funds to renovate all the parks, starting with Glenbrook, which will be getting a ZIPLINE (yeehaw!) next year. Olivebridge Park offers scenic spots for picnicking and relaxing, while Pine Hill Community Center hosts yoga, events and other activities year-round. The Phoenicia farm market happens in Parish Field in Phoenicia May through October and then continues a winter market in Pine Hill. The Emerson has a fantastic gym used by many locals. The Shandaken Inn is a hot dining spot for locals on Wednesdays. Margaretville Telephone Company is supplying Phoenicia and working on all of Shandaken--a cost effective, efficient and employee owned alternative to the larger monopolies. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of paradise in the Catskills. Schedule your private tour today and start envisioning the mountain lifestyle you've always dreamed of!
