Property details

About 263 S Mountain Rd

Nestled on storied South Mountain Road, a haven for artists and creatives, this country home offers a rare blend of history , charm and natural beauty, all within 40 min of New York City. For decades, vineyards covered the gentle slopes of the property rolling up to the state park behind it. Towering hemlocks frame the road. Set on a n expansive lot, the home is embraced by a rock garden that was once the crown jewel of the property, waiting to be restored to its former beauty, The land carries a quiet, enduring spirit altering beautifully from season to season. The notable American artist Henry Varnum Poor designed and built the fireplace (there are only a handful similar on the road) Southern exposure means winter and summers are gentler here , Owned by the same family for almost 50 years, this is more than just a house, it is a place with a soul, a place that has inspired and endured. It has character, history and most of all potential. Recorded as a 4 Bedroom 2 bath home, The Left main side of the home is really a 1 bedroom with 2 full bathrooms, a nice sized living room with a large fireplace, kitchen, dining room and laundry room.

With a bit of creativity and TLC, this can be your very own piece of Shangri La. House is being sold in AS IS Condition, no representations made
