It begins with space. The kind of space that feels rare in today's market, both inside and out, where light, air, and privacy come together in a home that is equal parts retreat and gathering place. Built in 2014 and set on 1.8 acres, this 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath residence offers more than 3,000 square feet of living space designed for comfort and versatility. The dramatic two-story foyer with its sweeping staircase sets the tone, leading into high-ceilinged rooms that feel open and inviting. At the heart of the main floor is the kitchen, complete with large island, full pantry, a breakfast area, lots of cabinetry and other storage, and French doors that extend the living space to a spacious back patio and in-ground pool, perfect for everything from quiet Sunday mornings to lively summer gatherings. A dining room connects the spaces, while a first-floor bedroom adds flexibility for one-level living. Upstairs, the primary suite features a spa-like bath with soaking tub and walk-in shower, along with an oversized flex room above the garage that adapts as an office, media lounge, or creative studio. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a laundry room complete the second floor. With a newer roof and modern systems, the home has been carefully maintained and is truly move-in ready, giving buyers peace of mind that the big-ticket items will last for years to come. The property balances openness and privacy, with a flat, park-like yard bordered by mature trees and the added benefit of underground utilities. The pool and patio area create a true backyard destination, ideal for entertaining or unwinding. The location makes it all the more special. Positioned between Kingston and Highland, just off Route 9W, the home offers both convenience and a connection to the Hudson River Valley. Nearby Black Creek Preserve, Shaupeneak Ridge Park, and the John Burroughs Nature Sanctuary provide trails and vistas for the nature lover, while local vineyards such as El Paso and Red Maple, along with Hudson House Distillery's small-batch spirits and farm-to-table dining, showcase the best of the Hudson Valley. Whether as a full-time residence or a weekend escape, this property delivers a rare blend of space, convenience, and lifestyle in one of Ulster County's most accessible corridors. Homes with this mix of features are not often available, making this an opportunity not to be missed.
