Pass the wall of glass and through the front door to discover a gourmet kitchen featuring Bertazonni appliances, complemented by terrazzo tiles, Scandinavian-style finished plywood walls, and wood and concrete floors that blend modern aesthetics with rustic charm. Bookended by floor to ceiling windows which provide an abundance of natural light, the living room boasts breathtaking mountain views and a Malm fireplace for cozying up with a book on those chilly days.
The primary bedroom is light and airy and features a private hallway, painted wood floors, ensuite full bathroom with tiled walk-in shower and mountain views. The additional bedrooms also include wood floors and bathroom access off a shared hallway. The secondary bathroom features a tub for soaking in after a long day of adventure.
Still inside, the main floor features a generous mudroom with custom cabinetry for ample ski and gear storage. Oversized paper lantern pendant lights by Noguchi, Bolich kitchen lighting, and Zangra and Aldo Bernardi fixtures illuminate the space with a warm glow. Vintage Scandinavian furniture, including pieces by the iconic Finnish designer Alvar Aalto, add a touch of timeless elegance to the interiors.
Moving outside, the main floor opens to a substantial 500-square-foot deck, perfect for al fresco dining, star gazing and entertaining under the clear mountain skies. Descend to the lower level game room, which leads out to a hardscaped backyard complete with a meadow. Raised beds in the front and side of the property provide optimal room for future privacy plantings with installed irrigation in place.
This turn-key residence has been meticulously restored with new mechanicals, HVAC, water heater, plumbing, and electrical systems, ensuring a simple transition to luxurious mountain living. Embrace the extraordinary in this unique property, where every detail has been thoughtfully considered, creating a home that reflects the pinnacle of contemporary alpine living. This impeccably transformed residence is a testament to hip luxury and functional design and is being offered fully furnished.
When out and about, the Après-Ski Chalet is just minutes away from some of the Catskills best restaurants, cafe’s, ski resorts, hiking, boating and more. Within walking distance are The Prospect restaurant at Scribner’s Lodge and Fellow Mountain Cafe for delicious morning coffee and pastries. A 10 minute car ride down Route 23A brings you into the quaint and colorful town of Tannersville where restaurants like Tabla and Nat’s Mountain House lead the way, and the giant twin stone fireplaces of Deer Mountain Inn beckon for an early evening cocktail in one of their comfy leather armchairs.
The epic views of Kaaterskill Falls are just far enough away to avoid the masses, but can be enjoyed just as well on any given day. Just voted one of the hardest hikes in America, Devil’s Path is sure to get the pulse thumping – or settle for something simpler like the Hunter Branch Rail Trail for a short walk through the wilderness.
