About 633 Brown Settlement Road

About The Property Few properties have come up in recent memory with such ultimate privacy and a State Park feel. Over 35 acres of mature hard and softwood trees, with several streams and brooks flowing through the property. Trails have been created to make full use of the land. They wind down from the house to Fall Brook, a gorgeous rivulet that flows year-round and right through the property. Other unnamed streams babble peacefully through the land. The lot size and design will prevent any other home from ever being within view, in any season. The 3 bed/2bath home, built in 2024 by Western Sullivan Properties, glimmers as well. Many upgrades have been made recently, including designer tiles added for the kitchen backsplash, the bathrooms, and behind the wood stove. High-end wallpapers elevate the bathrooms. A double-size tub was added in the primary. Central a/c and heat pumps keep the home comfy year-round, and a whole-house generator keeps things running if power fails. The open living space flows effortlessly: from kitchen to dining to living. The kitchen is bright and super functional. Quartz counters, that new backsplash tiling, great storage in both open shelving and lower cabinets, and a sink with a view. The island fits a pair of barstools for a quick bite or as a work surface. The mudroom was beautifully wallpapered and has a coat closet and bench. White oak flooring, high ceilings, and the large wall of windows make the interior bright and welcoming. The wood stove will blaze in the colder months. The home is very tight, with foam insulation enveloping the outside walls, so the stove will warm the home wonderfully come winter. Those stylish tiles behind the stove were recently added. Opposite the wood stove is a great living area, with a TV wall and a spacious hangout space. The primary suite is at the end of the hallway and is a sight to behold. A king-size bed has a forest view out the large window. The deck, with two clawfoot outdoor tubs and a sauna, is accessed through a sliding door. The bathroom has lovely designer wallpaper and a tiled walk-in shower. A second bedroom has its own deck just out a sliding glass door. The 3rd bedroom is currently used as an office and has direct access to the larger deck. The second bathroom has also been upgraded, with a walk-in shower and even more stylish tiling. The deck wraps around the side of the home. The level of privacy here is so peaceful. Gaze out to the forested acres, where there will never be a house in view. A table is set up for outdoor dining, and a small herb garden provides a fresh, easy sprig of thyme. Those two tubs and the sauna are separated off down toward the other end, and the on-demand water heater will fill them with hot-as-you-can-stand water. Wood storage is there for grabbing a few logs for the wood stove. A custom-made garden shed was added, and there is additional wood storage. For more storage, there is a large, stand-up crawl space for storing kayaks, bicycles, or other seasonal toys. The newly added propane generator connects via Bluetooth and will turn on automatically in the event of a power failure. The propane tank has been recently supersized to keep you powered for days. The yard there has a fire pit and some Adirondack chairs for a post-dinner digestif. Just past the idyllic hammock is a trailhead that leads down to the streams and brook. Trees have been marked along the way for direction. Two bridges were constructed using felled trees. Fall Brook runs year-round through the property, not on the border. There are so many places to explore on the property that it feels even larger than the 35 acres. It’s one’s own private state park. There are so many other Catskill options in the area as well. Long Pond Trail is a 5-minute drive, and Frick Pond Loop is 13 minutes. Main Street, Livingston Manor is just 13 minutes away. Fine dining at the DeBruce is only 8 minutes.
