Nestled in the serene landscape of Livingston Manor, NY, Goff Hill Cabin blends classic log cabin charm with modern design. Meticulously curated by the owner of Long Weekend – who was recently featured in Dwell Magazine – Goff Hill Cabin appeals to design enthusiasts looking to immerse into nature on its vast 18.8 acre lot. Two distinct parcels encompass not only the main cabin, but also a detached two-story garage, and a private hiking trail.

Listed by Jill Borenstein at Catskill Mountain Houses. Open House: Saturday, May 4, noon-2pm, at 262 Goff Road, Livingston Manor, NY. For inquiries or to RSVP, contact jill@catskillmountainhouses.com or call (631) 495-9534.

Begin on the covered front porch and enter through the front door into a newly added mudroom, perfect for all weather and outdoor gear with hooks, storage and seating. Through the doorway is Goff Hill Cabin’s great room, with an open plan living and dining space, plus a minimalist fully-equipped  kitchen. These three spaces are tied together by a cathedral vaulted ceiling that allow plentiful natural light, kept cozy with a wood burning stove. Just off the kitchen, a private bedroom is on the first floor, next to the shared full bathroom. Sliding glass doors lead to a large wraparound deck partially covered for grilling, and a sundeck for sunbathing and entertaining.

Head upstairs and notice the design forward touches, including the wood privacy design and the home’s landing nook – a space just right for a comfy reading chair. Continuing upstairs, find the bright and spacious primary bedroom with a large balcony skylight. This large window can operate as both a skylight and balcony, giving you easy access to fresh air and treetop forest views. Its ensuite bathroom offers bright, tranquil spa vibes with a soaking tub and walk-in shower.

Back downstairs, breeze through the door off the dining area, down to the unfinished walkout basement that houses a pellet stove and the washer/dryer. This space has the potential to expand the square footage of the house and transform into a home gym, office or guest apartment with private entrance.
