This charming 1920s Chichester cottage sits perched above the Stony Clove Creek, where the soothing sounds of rushing water create a peaceful Catskills retreat. Enjoy the serenity of this special setting from the covered side deck--the perfect spot for morning coffee, quiet afternoons, or summer evenings watching the fireflies. The home has recently received several significant improvements, including a new roof, new septic system, newer heating system and fresh interior and exterior paint. Inside, the first-floor layout offers a comfortable sense of separation between the common living spaces while maintaining the cottage's original character. One of two inviting sitting areas features a woodstove, providing cozy supplemental heat during the cooler months. Original hardwood floors add warmth and charm throughout. The quaint country kitchen features a sweet breakfast nook with comfortable seating for four. A first-floor bedroom and recently renovated full bathroom offer added convenience. A character-filled cottage staircase leads to two additional bedrooms on the second floor, where an abundance of natural light creates a bright and welcoming atmosphere throughout the day. A two-car garage provides covered parking along with valuable additional storage space--ideal for vehicles, outdoor gear, tools, and everything needed to enjoy the Catskills in every season. Don't miss the swimming hole across the road, perfect to cool down on a hot summer day. Over the years, the property has served as a full-time residence, successful Airbnb, and long-term rental, offering flexibility for a variety of uses. Located just a short drive from the Village of Phoenicia and within easy reach of Belleayre, Plattekill, Hunter, and Windham ski centers, this cottage places you in the heart of the Catskill Mountains and its four-season lifestyle. From skiing and hiking to fishing, biking, swimming, and exploring nearby mountain towns, this is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy everything the Catskills have to offer--whether as a primary residence, weekend escape, or investment property.
