Property Details

Overview

Introducing Highland Cottage, a charming 1938 cottage that retains details of the fine craftsmanship indicative of the period. Original wood trim and doors tell of time when wood materials were just superior to today’s. The user-friendly layout is still perfectly compatible with contemporary lifestyles. The spacious kitchen was renovated in 2023. A large island adds additional workspace to the butcher block counter tops. New cabinets and tiled backsplash finish off the renovation. The pass-through window has a pair of stools for a morning bite and a coffee, or for an informal meal on the go. On the other side of the kitchen is one of the two living rooms or dens. The wood stove will fill the room with warmth, even in the coldest of winters. The laid-up stone hearth acts as a radiant heat source. There is a washer and dryer and, just beyond, an exterior door to screen-in porch for outdoor dining in the warmer months. The electrical service and panel are new. On the opposite side of the kitchen is a separate dining room which is ideal for jovial dinners with family and friends. The lovely original wood floors run through there and onwards to the den, or second living room. Here there are several options, keep it as a cozy TV room hangout, or create an overflow bedroom or home office. The main floor bedroom can accommodate a king size bed and has easy access to the bathroom. Head upstairs to the other two roomy bedrooms. There are closets in each and have numerous possibilities. The yard is fenced in and there is a fire pit for summer s’mores. Most of the 1.6 acres is a wooded area behind the house. Barryville is only 7 minutes away, where there is a great farmer’s market on Saturdays and easy access to the Delaware River. Narrowsburg is just 18 minutes away, and there is a grocery store just 5 minutes away in Eldred.
