105 Stewart Rd, Denver, NY 12421

When the world becomes all too much, and the day's burdens have taken their toll on your soul, the drive to your private mountain retreat will cleanse you and reframe your perspective to a more peaceful view. Set within a breathtaking mountain bowl in the Vega Valley of Roxbury, NY, the spectacular setting of this 4+-bedroom, 3-bath residence combines historic character with modern luxury. Beginning life as part of the Stewart family farm more than a half mile lower on the mountain, this classic dairy barn, was built by hand in 1886. Through a feat of unprecedented engineering, the 80-ton barn was hauled, along with the 40 tons of steel beams holding it up, through the forest and up the mountain to its present site in 1990. (Read more about the move below.) Preserving its architectural heritage and cathedral-like grandeur, the open-concept floorplan leaves massive original beams, traditional charm and expert craftsmanship exposed in the 30 foot high central great room. Modern amenities throughout the home turn a rustic frame into a truly luxurious experience. Highlights include spa-like bathrooms framed in local bluestone (including two Japanese-style soaking tubs), a chef's dream kitchen with center island cook station, multiple sinks, dishwashers and enormous granite counter space, and an inspired tatami seating area. Stunning picture windows and high-end wood stoves—one with a built-in pizza oven -- add warmth and personality to the magic of this incredible room. The second level has a fenced railing guiding guests to one of the 4 bedrooms on the floor, while creative ships ladders, climb to two crows-nest loft rooms even higher above. Set on 140 acres of private land, the property offers exclusive hiking trails, unmatched seclusion, and a deep connection to nature—an increasingly rarity in this region. The flexible layout suits a range of lifestyles, from full-time residence to wellness retreat, corporate escape, or short-term rental income. Just minutes from the towns of Margaretville, Roxbury, Andes, Bovina, Delhi and Phoenicia, the home provides easy access to dining, shopping, and cultural experiences. Plattekill Ski ( 9 miles), Belleayre Ski ( 13 miles), as well as Windham and Hunter Mountain ski resorts are all frequent attractions. Albany is an hour away and the GWB is under 2.5 hours. This property is more than a home—it's a living legacy, inviting you to experience the timeless beauty and enduring spirit of the Catskills.
