About this home

Tucked among the trees, this reimagined contemporary offers the perfect balance of design, craftsmanship, and nature. Every inch of the home has been thoughtfully updated with premium finishes—from Kohler and Delta fixtures in the kitchen and baths to imported porcelain tile from Spain, a Zellige backsplash, and warm white oak floors. A double-sided fireplace connects the living spaces, while new doors, trim, and millwork complete the cohesive modern design. Each of the three bedrooms features a full en-suite bath—one on the main floor and two upstairs. The open kitchen is brand new with GE Profile appliances, high-end cabinetry, and quartz countertops. The 500 sq ft finished walkout basement, (not included in the total), opens onto a custom bluestone patio, ideal for indoor-outdoor entertaining. Behind the scenes, all-new HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and hot water systems, plus new siding, windows, and doors, ensure efficiency and peace of mind. The exterior is equally thoughtful, with an enclosed screened porch and landscaped grounds that surround the home with natural beauty. An artisan-designed bluestone patio wraps the property, and a brand-new driveway leads to the two-car attached garage. Just minutes from downtown New Paltz, enjoy vibrant restaurants, shops, and culture—or explore nearby Mohonk Preserve and Minnewaska State Park for world-class hiking, climbing, and waterfalls. In the New Paltz School District and only 25 minutes to Metro-North in Poughkeepsie, 8 Watch Hill Road is the perfect full-time residence or turnkey weekend retreat—just 90 minutes from NYC.
