COZY AND CUTE CAPE BY THE CREEK IN PHOENICIA

First time on the market, here is a great house in Phoenicia, called by many one of the coolest small towns in the country and certainly one of the real Belles of the Catskills. This low maintenance cozy vintage Cape is located just about 100 feet from the creek, safely out of the flood plain, in the Phoenicia Flats.  “The Flats” was affectionately named some years back by locals, it is the entrance to the town’s notable Woodland Valley area and a charming residential neighborhood just one mile from the village that sits high and dry directly above the creek, with its beating heart being Esopus Avenue. Enjoy being part of a real mountain neighborhood, with the sounds of the creek and nature coming in through the screens. You can walk in literally one minute to a landing off of the Woodland Valley Bridge for swimming and fly fishing.The house features one story living at its finest, with three legal bedrooms (though one is currently set up as a home office) and one bathroom, along with a generous living room which flows to the dining room and nice sized kitchen. There is a huge full basement below and the high ceilinged attic above offers eight feet of height and the possibility of dormering it and creating more living space. The parcel includes a private back yard and a nice front lawn, with a huge driveway that can accommodate at least four cars. For those looking to work from home, super high speed cable internet is readily available. Phoenicia offers a lovely quality of life, with its many eateries, galleries, theater, annual Festival of the Voice, all in a majestic setting located in the heart of the Catskills. Woodstock and the slopes at Hunter and Belleayre are 20 minutes away, Kingston 30 minutes, and the GWB just two hours, with Trailways bus service available to the Port Authority. This is an all-too rare opportunity for anyone wanting a reasonably priced second or primary home in a very lovable and convenient town. $329,000.
