180 Yankee Lake Road, Wurtsboro, New York 12790 (MLS# H6177496)

This super inviting home is sure to appeal as the perfect city escape for weekends, longer stays, or even as a fulltime residence. It includes deeded lake rights to pristine non-motorboat Yankee Lake for swimming, kayaking and fishing fun just a short 5 minute walk away. The home offers a number of amenities, including a large deck, hot tub, fire pit, and outdoor shower all set on a larger than typical lot for this area with great natural rock outcroppings and a beautiful stone staircase on the edge of the property. It is easy to imagine gathering friends and family at this special property that was clearly designed for entertaining. The home has been lovingly renovated and updated in recent years so it truly is a turnkey option that you could easily move into in time for summer. All the rooms feel quite spacious but the living room with cathedral ceilings and the large sunny dining room with good sized windows and lots of natural light really stand out. Although it is considered a two bedroom home, the current owners have wisely utilized the attic space to create a couple of additional bedrooms. The kitchen has a nice feel with a cool breakfast bar and stylish shelving and, in the nearby dining room, feels particularly cozy with the charming wood stove. A mudroom off the dining rooms leads out to the back deck. The Yankee Lake community is perfect for those wanting to be part of a quaint lake community with low taxes while being close to all the Catskills has to offer. At just 75 minutes away from the GWB, this is an easy get away!
