Tucked into a wooded hillside with mountain views and almost total privacy, this log-sided home delivers the cabin feel without giving up comfort. Log wood siding over a stone base, a stone chimney running up the side and a canopy of mature trees on all sides. You do not see a neighbor, you see ridgeline. Inside, the main living room is the showpiece. Soaring vaulted knotty pine ceiling, exposed beams, twin skylights pouring in light and a floor to ceiling stone fireplace anchoring the room. Warm wide plank floors carry through. A Dutch door opens to the entry and the sightline runs straight through to the sliders and the trees beyond. The kitchen is finished with granite counters, a glass tile backsplash, stainless steel double oven range, custom navy cabinetry with brass hardware and a pass-through window that keeps the cook in the conversation. A separate laundry room keeps the mess out of the living space. The main level also has a den and office space, ideal for working from home or a guest overflow room. Upstairs are two bedrooms. Two full baths total. Step outside to the real selling point. A large elevated deck with room to grill and entertain, a hot tub, a lower patio set among mature hydrangeas and gardens, and covered parking under the overhang. Fully wooded, fully private, and quiet in a way that most of Putnam County is not anymore. Under 90 minutes to Manhattan with Metro North access nearby. Weekend house, full time retreat, or short term rental play, this one works on all three.
