Right between two Catskills sweethearts, this easy living Cape offers a freshly updated home with just the right amount of space to spread out. Currently set up for single-story living, the house has two bedrooms - including a king-sized primary with an ensuite, a charming open kitchen and dining area, and a spacious sun-filled living room. The easy-to-access unfinished attic offers an opportunity for future expansion, and the basement (with Bilco doors) and detached garage hold space for tinkering, creative projects, gardening gear, or the inevitable collection of snowshoes and outdoor gear you will accumulate. Recent updates include new appliances, new flooring throughout, new light fixtures, fresh interior paint, and a handful of thoughtful upgrades that make this home a breeze to enjoy and maintain. Outside, wildflower meadows, a wooded hillside, and just enough level lawn surround the house, while a fenced garden is ready for your vision. The deck is perfect for morning coffee, sunny afternoons with a book, or grilling after a day exploring the area. With 1.5 acres (spread across two parcels), there’s enough room to grow flowers and veggies, wander through the trees, and enjoy a little nature, without requiring a ton of maintenance. This home is just 11 minutes from the Main Streets of both Livingston Manor and Jeffersonville. Each has its own take on the quintessential Catskills experience, with great restaurants and bakeries, beloved small businesses, wine shops, and farmers' markets. The vibes are just right, and you’ll quickly find yourself becoming a regular at all the local favorites. Beyond town, rolling hills, pastoral farmland, winding country roads, and wild forests make even the drive home feel like part of the experience. Hiking, swimming, fishing, and river days are all close at hand, with the Delaware River and countless lakes, rivers, and trails to explore nearby. The George Washington Bridge is about two hours away.

The first night you sleep here, there are no sirens. No radiator clanking, no footsteps overhead, no one talking on the sidewalk below. Just the wind moving through the maples out back. In the morning you open the door and almost an acre of yard is waiting, the trees along the back gone red and gold against the dark green pines, and it finally sinks in that this is yours. By evening you are walking into town for dinner at Basbousa, less than a mile from the front door, and walking home under more stars than you have seen in years. That is what makes this house different from so many upstate listings, the ones at the end of long dirt roads where every meal out means a drive and the inspection report is full of questions about the well and the septic. Here you get the yard and the woods, neighbors' porch lights showing through the leaves, and public water and sewer, just like the city. The water heater is brand new, and everything is on one floor. The front door opens right into the living room, with a wood beam across the ceiling and big windows looking out over the lawn. It flows straight back to the kitchen and dining area, all one bright room, with a walk-in pantry you stock on Friday and forget about until Sunday. When friends come up for the weekend, the wine gets opened early and nobody wants to be the first to call it a night. When they finally do, the house goes quiet. Both bedrooms sit down the hall, away from the living room, with the primary suite at the end and a walk-in closet big enough to keep a real wardrobe up here, boots, flannels and all, so you stop packing a bag every Friday. Saturdays are for exploring. Hurleyville is 15 minutes away for Taverna Catskills and coffee at Forage and Gather, and Ellenville is 20 minutes for a show at Shadowland Stages. Keep driving and you reach brunch at Mill & Main in Kerhonkson, Arrowood Farms in Accord, a pint at Upward Brewing in Livingston Manor, and, about 45 minutes west along the Delaware, cocktails at the Cochecton Fire Station, Firehouse Antiques, and a movie at the Callicoon Theater. After the first big snow, you leave the car in the driveway and take the snowmobile into town, flakes still falling, the lights glowing along Main Street. Back home, the electric fireplace is on and the snow keeps piling up outside those front windows. By spring the bikes come up out of the basement. The O&W Rail Trail starts at the old train depot in town, a few minutes from the house, and runs 2.6 flat miles to Woodridge. The Bashakill near Wurtsboro is made for kayaking and watching for eagles, and in July you can float the Delaware on a tube from Lander's in Callicoon. Summer nights end on the back deck, with dinner outside as the sun goes down, the smell of fresh cut grass, and fireflies blinking along the tree line. Some weekends there is a concert at Bethel Woods or a night out at Resorts World Catskills in Monticello. Manhattan is about 90 miles away, roughly 2 hours with no traffic, with Route 17 close by. For a while, that drive is just how you get here on Fridays. Then one Sunday night, with the porch light on and the bags still by the door, you decide the city can wait until Monday afternoon.

White Roe Lake Cottage is a charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home on nearly 6 private, wooded acres in Livingston Manor, NY. Set back from a quiet road, it offers the rare combination of seclusion, space, and water access: a deeded parcel on Trojan Lake, complete with a private dock, is just a 3-minute walk away. Step inside to an open first floor where the kitchen, dining room, and living room are all connected. The living room is anchored by a large wood-burning stone fireplace. French doors open from the living room to an expansive back deck, giving the whole home a desirable indoor-outdoor feel. The well-appointed kitchen offers generous storage and counter space, plus all the appliances a home chef could want. The first-floor primary suite includes an attached full bath, while upstairs, two spacious guest bedrooms share a full bath. Also found upstairs: a flexible common area is ready to become an overflow sleeping area with a futon, or perhaps an extra entertainment space. Outside, the grassy back yard surrounded by trees offers true privacy. Gather around the firepit after a day on the lake, or let the kids explore the old tree house tucked into the woods. Rounding out the property, an attached two-car garage with room for a workshop connects to the house through a handy mudroom. Like any well-loved retreat, the house is ready for a little love of its own, and a fresh coat of paint and a few cosmetic updates will bring out its full potential. Best of all, you're less than 10 minutes from the heart of Livingston Manor, one of the Catskills' most beloved small towns. This lively hamlet is known for its walkable Main Street, independent shops, cozy cafes, and farm-to-table restaurants. It sits at the crossroads of world-famous fly fishing on the Willowemoc and Beaverkill rivers, and it's a gateway to hiking trails, scenic drives, and four-season outdoor adventure. Spend the morning on the water, the afternoon exploring town, and the evening back by the fire. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence, a weekend escape, or a rental property, White Roe Lake Cottage has the space, setting, and location to fit your life in the Catskills.
