Nestled just outside the Village of Ellenville, this home offers the best of both worlds, set far enough back for privacy, yet close enough to enjoy a short stroll into town. Perched above the Rondout Valley with sweeping views of the Shawangunk Ridge, the setting here is truly special. The scenery surrounds you from the moment you arrive and continues throughout the property. The outdoor space is designed to be enjoyed, with multiple areas to take in the views. A deck attached to the home provides easy everyday access, while additional seating areas are thoughtfully placed throughout the property. Each space offers its own perspective of the landscape, creating a truly inviting outdoor experience. Inside, this well-maintained, second-owner walk-in ranch features hardwood floors, an eat-in kitchen, a small formal dining room, two generously sized bedrooms, and a full bath on the main level. The home has been very well cared for and is in great condition. While it may benefit from some updating, it offers solid bones and a wonderful opportunity for you to either move right in and enjoy as-is, or add your personal style over time. The lower level offers great additional living space with a walk-out slider to a patio. It is semi-finished and includes a large common area, a separate room, a wet bar, and an additional bath- ideal for guests, recreation, or flexible use. Additional features include an oversized garage with room for a workshop, a 12x12 shed, and a koi pond that adds to the peaceful, all-season appeal of the property. Beautiful views, privacy, and just minutes to town- this is a property that offers a setting that is hard to find and easy to enjoy!
