Perched above the valley with views of Paradise Lake, The Tree House is a completely reimagined two-bedroom, one-bath Catskills cabin tucked into the trees in Woodbourne. Gutted to the studs and thoughtfully rebuilt from the roof down, nearly everything is new—including the roof, interior and exterior cladding, flooring, plumbing, electric, heating and cooling, windows and doors. Inside, the open living, dining and kitchen space feels warm and inviting, with a wood-burning stove at its center and thoughtful finishes throughout, including terrazzo in the bathroom and kitchen backsplash. A flexible room provides additional space for guests, a home office or a quiet place to unwind. Set on .69 acres, the home sits below the parking area and is reached by a staircase, giving it a tucked-away feeling that really does feel like living in the trees. A large deck faces the woods and Paradise Lake below—known locally for great fishing—and creates the perfect spot for morning coffee, dinner outside or simply taking in the view. The location makes it easy to enjoy everything this part of the Catskills has to offer, from hiking and biking to swimming, fishing and kayaking. The Neversink River, Peekamoose Blue Hole and Slide Mountain are all within easy reach, along with Livingston Manor, Mountaindale and Ellenville for restaurants, shops, markets and local events. Completely turnkey and perfectly sized for a weekend getaway, full-time retreat or STR, The Tree House offers a cozy Catskills escape with easy access to Route 17 and just over 100 miles from the GWB.
