About 278 Route 13

This well-loved and well-maintained mountain getaway has been lightly used in recent years and is ready for new owners to keep the good vibes going. Set in a truly charming and bucolic location—where dramatic skies give way to firefly-lit evenings—this is a place where relaxation comes naturally. Enjoy year-round mountain views and brilliant sunsets from the large west-facing windows, or while relaxing on the welcoming front porch. Out back, the covered barbecue deck overlooks a peaceful forest and a generous expanse of lush green lawn—perfect for a game of frisbee, practicing your golf swing, or simply unwinding. Venture deeper into the woods of this 3-acre parcel and discover a seasonal stream that meanders through the heart of the property. In the colder months, two wood stoves provide cozy warmth—one in the inviting, light-filled living room with windows on all sides, glowing with Scandinavian pine paneling and opening directly to the back deck. The bright, functional cook's kitchen with an adjacent dining area enjoys its own wood stove and flows easily into the living room, creating a warm and social open layout. One of the three bedrooms is tucked away upstairs, offering added privacy and ample storage. Meanwhile, a full bathroom within one of the downstairs bedrooms makes for a convenient and comfortable primary suite. The large basement is divided into three spacious sections, each with its own potential—whether you envision additional finished living space, game or media rooms, a studio, or more. One section is a fully outfitted workshop with direct walk-out access via two doors to grade. With frontage on two quiet country roads—one in front and one in back—this property offers privacy, charm, and seamless access to four-season recreation. Enjoy skiing at Hunter, Windham, Belleayre, and Plattekill, trout fishing in the Schoharie Creek, and endless hiking through the majestic Catskill High Peaks. Whether you call it home or your happy place, this Catskills retreat is ready for its next chapter.
