Property Description

Set on a private mountainside in the Catskills village of Lexington, this expansive log home enjoys open, long-distance views directly into one of the Catskills' most dramatic mountain passes, defined by steep ridgelines and a broad notch that changes visibly with weather and season. The residence encompasses approximately 7,000 square feet and is defined by substantial log construction and generous proportions throughout. The home includes four bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, along with a substantial number of additional flexible rooms, several of which are presently configured to accommodate extended family and guests, allowing the overall sleeping and use capacity of the home to extend well beyond the legal bedroom count. Arranged over three floors, the home is anchored by a vaulted great room with a stone, wood-burning fireplace, alongside a generously sized dining room and kitchen designed for gathering. In total, the home offers five additional flexible rooms suitable for offices, studios, recreation rooms, guest spaces, or other private-use areas. The upper level features a spacious primary en-suite wing, along with additional bedrooms and a second full bathroom, separated by an open loft overlooking the main living space. The main level offers bedrooms and bathrooms positioned on either side of the home, providing balance and privacy. The lower level is dedicated to recreation and leisure, with a secondary living room, pool table, foosball table, full bar, and pellet stove, creating a self-contained area well suited to entertaining or extended family use. The current owners have completed a series of thoughtful interior updates. All bathrooms have been renovated with high-end finishes, including distinctive Italian anthracite radiators. Plush wall-to-wall carpeting has been installed throughout all bedrooms. The deck and stairs have been completely rebuilt. In addition, the entire lower level has been fully built out, creating three additional flexible rooms that further expand the home's functional capacity. The layout supports multi-generational living, shared ownership, or use as a well-configured vacation property, with separation and volume suited to larger groups. Outdoor amenities include a large wraparound deck positioned to take full advantage of the mountain views, a swimming and fishing pond, and a three-car garage with additional loft storage. A separate shed offers space for hobbies or casual entertaining, complete with a built-in bar, while a dedicated poker room, accessible from both the deck and the exterior of the house, adds a distinctive element. A large fire pit with seating along the front of the home further enhances the outdoor setting and captures the expansive outlook. A particularly valuable feature of the property is its direct adjacency to approximately 23 acres of land owned and managed by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection. This protected watershed land is permanently restricted from development and offers access to hiking, fishing, and hunting, while ensuring long-term privacy and a stable, undeveloped natural setting. Overall, the property is distinguished by its scale, setting, protected land adjacency, and adaptability. Properties offering this combination of interior volume, notch-scale views, and permanently protected surroundings are increasingly rare in the Catskills. Well suited to large families, shared ownership, and investors, this is a substantial mountain residence with uninterrupted views, enduring privacy, and close proximity to Windham, Hunter, Belleayre, and Plattekill Mountains.
