At 1,070 feet atop the Shawangunk Ridge, the view is the first thing that gets you. A sweeping panorama of valleys, ridgelines, and endless sky that shifts by the hour and somehow never stops feeling dramatic. It’s the kind of setting that instantly slows your pulse. The approach sets the tone: steep dark gables, a gated entry, and a herringbone brick courtyard leading to double doors tucked beneath a soaring archway. Equal parts mountain retreat and architectural statement. Inside, the home opens fully to the landscape. Cathedral ceilings, whitewashed oak floors, and a wood-burning fireplace anchor the main living space, while oversized windows and wide sliders frame the valley beyond like living artwork. The kitchen pairs deep navy cabinetry with quartz counters, a farmhouse sink, skylights overhead, and direct access to the deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The first-floor primary suite feels intentionally tucked away, complete with its own private deck, generous walk-in closet, and spa-like bath featuring a soaking tub, double oak vanity, and walk-in rain shower. Upstairs, a glass-lined catwalk connects two guest bedrooms and a shared full bath. The lower level is designed for gathering and unwinding after a day outside, with polished concrete floors, a wet bar, full bath, and flexible bonus spaces that open directly to the pool area — equally suited for summer weekends or year-round hosting. Outside, the heated saltwater infinity pool and spa sit right at the mountain’s edge, alongside an outdoor shower, fire pit, playground, and surprisingly usable yard space — a rare combination of dramatic setting and everyday livability. Just minutes from outdoor destinations like Bashakill Wildlife Preserve, Sam’s Point, and Middletown conveniences like NJ Transit, and roughly 75 minutes from the George Washington Bridge, this gem is a true escape without sacrificing accessibility. Move-in ready with proven rental history and undeniable presence. A one-of-one ridge-top retreat.
