Sitting on nearly eleven acres of mountainside meadow, Hawthorn is an 1880s farmhouse that feels quietly modern, with historic bones and a timeless, place-based sensibility. Situated at the base of the Catskills, the property stretches over rolling hills, framed by mature trees and open sky. The landscape offers a peaceful backdrop where nature and architecture coexist with ease, setting the tone for the thoughtful design and craftsmanship found throughout the home.
Step inside through the mudroom and into the open-plan main level, which unfolds across wide-plank, reclaimed pine floors. The kitchen – designed by the owner, a noteworthy restaurateur – centers on a Viking range set into an oversized island, with butcher block counters and a farmhouse sink anchoring the perimeter. In the dining area, sculptural lighting from AY Illuminate and Fefo Studio sets a warm, understated tone. The living space features a wood-burning stove and a spacious gathering area, creating an inviting heart to the home. Beyond, a short hallway leads first to a full bath, then to a guest bedroom with a wood stove, built-in desk, and quaint window seat.
Upstairs, three bedrooms share a thoughtfully updated bathroom with a walk-in rainfall shower and a soaking tub that overlooks the property. The primary bedroom includes a dedicated workspace, three custom closets, and a paneled accent wall that adds depth and texture. The two additional bedrooms include built-in shelving for added function and charm. All three rooms are brightened by paned windows that bring in generous natural light. On the third floor, a finished attic space functions as a home theater or game room, with sloped ceilings, multiple nooks, and a quiet, tucked-away feel. It’s expansive but cozy, offering creative flexibility for future use.
Outside, the ten-plus-acre landscape reflects classic Catskills character. Wisteria climbs a pergola that sits beside the wraparound porch, which catches changing light throughout the day. A stone-framed dining area connects to the kitchen via a pass-through window, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow. Past the dining area, a freestanding fire pit is paired with a seating area carved into the slope, while a wood-fired hot tub and rope swing are tucked deeper into the meadow. At the property’s edge, a two-story barn features a plexiglass wall that filters sunlight inside, bathing the interior in a soft glow. Partially finished with new design plans available, the barn is ready to evolve into a guest house, studio, or both.

Our Favorite Details at Hawthorn: Light, Air, and Quiet Ease
While Hawthorn holds onto its 1880s farmhouse roots, its interiors feel bright, open, and distinctly modern. The main level unfolds with easy transitions between kitchen, dining, and living spaces, all beneath high ceilings and across wide-plank floors. Large windows throughout invite light from every direction, softening the interiors and connecting each room to the surrounding landscape. Upstairs, painted wood floors in crisp white add an airy lift, giving even tucked-away bedrooms a sense of space and calm.
Stone patios, al fresco dining areas, and seating carved into the hillside create natural extensions of the home’s ease, encouraging slow afternoons and fireside evenings. The barn, set at the edge of the meadow, offers its own kind of stillness — with plexiglass walls that filter soft light across the interior, it’s an ideal setting for an art studio, guest space, or quiet retreat. Altogether, the property centers a kind of lived-in lightness, where every space feels both grounded and quietly expansive.
