680 Old Route 17, Livingston Manor, (Rockland), NY, 12758

Manor Cottage is a turnkey 4 bedroom, 2 bath located in the thriving village of Livingston Manor. Take advantage of all the perks of town living with a short walk to the cultural and culinary treats of Main Street. Entering the home, the recently renovated kitchen greets. It was recently renovated with butcher block wood counters, new cabinetry, a subway tile backsplash, and a pair of rustic wood shelves just above the sink. The skylight is a great touch, opening up the area with light. The range, fridge, and dishwasher are stainless steel. Adjacent to the kitchen is a lounging nook with a lovely view out the back over the grassy field and the back deck. A newly constructed king-sized primary bedroom, en suite bathroom, and a walk-in closet have replaced the former garage, adding value and square footage to the home. There is privacy in the bedroom as the living area and additional bedrooms are on the opposite side of the home. Heading over that way, the living room and dining area have a genuine warmth and ooze good vibes. The beautiful wood floors are still intact. The dining area is bright and easily accessed from the kitchen. Pull open the sliding glass door for a nice dinner breeze. The living area has a wood-burning fireplace, which was just relined, as its focus. A pair of couches make this a perfect winter hangout by the fire. Corner windows bring in light, and the black trim adds a modern touch. The sliding door leads upstairs to the fourth bedroom, in which two queen-sized beds are in the space. The town has permitted this to be an additional bedroom for short-term rentals and is not included in the published square footage. The ground floor two bedrooms are just as homey as the living area, with the black trim working so well with the original wood floors. These share a recently renovated bathroom and each have queen beds. Stepping out the sliding glass door and onto the deck, think summer grilling and chilling. Upgrades on the home include a new furnace, new electric heaters in areas without radiators, a new hot water heater, and new 200-amp electrical service. The house is permitted for short-term rentals which, if inclined, would be a fantastic way to offset cost. Or just enjoy your own fantastic home in Livingston Manor, close to the great shops, restaurants, and art just minutes away. Catskill Brewery, one of the best in the region, is a 30 second walk away! Feeling more wine-y? Sunshine Colony has a great selection, a 10 minute walk away. One of the best bakeries in the area, The Neon Croissant, is tantilizingly easy to walk to. Catskill Art Space brings world class artists into their beautiful galleries. For a small town, Manor (as it's known locally) has so many wonderful options. For clearing your head out in the Nature, just go the opposite direction for some great hiking in lower Catskill Park. Roscoe, one of the great fly fishing areas in the country, is just a few miles away.
