Enter through Forest Ledge’s front door and into the spacious foyer, which splits the home into two wings. To the right, the open-concept living area begins with a gourmet kitchen with custom cabinets, stone countertops, and an eat-in island. The induction cooktop and hidden appliances give the space an elevated look, and allow for additional storage. Adjacent to the kitchen are the living and dining areas, which create a layout ideal for hosting and entertaining. In the center of the open-concept space is a set of two sliding glass doors that spill onto the back deck, which runs the full length of the home.

Set at the end of the right wing, the spacious primary suite provides a private retreat from the rest of the home. The ensuite bathroom has a true spalike feel, with the double sink vanity and rainfall walk-in shower isolated from the rest of the amenities. The spacious bedroom is flooded with natural light, which comes in from a set of sliding glass doors that provide a private access point to the deck. Down the hall, which features a wall of windows, and into the home’s left wing, there are two additional bedrooms and a shared second bathroom. Similar to the primary suite, the bedroom furthest down the hall has a set of sliding glass doors that provide access to the deck, perfect for guests.

Set on nearly two acres, a cleared backyard and dense forest provide privacy and a sense of seclusion. The pine-clad rear exterior, with a cantilevered roofline that extends over the full-length deck, provides a warm contrast to the dark front facade. The home’s covered back deck looks out into wooded land beyond the property lines, creating an idyllic backdrop for al fresco dining and evenings under the stars.

Forest Ledge is a short drive to several sought-after destinations, including Glen Falls House, Julia’s Local, and Old Factory Brewing. Less than half an hour further into the Great Northern Catskills, the Windham Mountain Club and Hunter Mountain Resort provide two nearby home bases for skiing and snowboarding in the winter. Heading toward the Hudson River, the nearby town of Catskill is a riverside hub for local culture, home to notable boutiques, eateries, venues, and artist studios.
