201 Route 27, Durham, NY, 12423 | $325,000

Escape to the countryside in this idyllic 1950s cottage, perfectly set on a picturesque acre with views that feels like so much more due to the surrounding hayfield. Recently renovated, the home offers modern convenience while keeping its vintage charm intact - all just 2 hours from the George Washington Bridge. Enter through the front door or the wood-paneled mudroom, complete with fresh tile perfect for kicking off boots after a day of exploring the outdoors. The bright, updated kitchen, featuring custom reclaimed ash wood cabinets, is ideal for cozy meals, while the renovated bathroom combines function with style. Both downstairs bedrooms offer ample closet space, and one includes a custom built-in desk. Upstairs, a large bedroom provides plenty of space for a work area or built-in closets. The attached garage, accessible through the mudroom, adds extra convenience and storage. Outside, the deck looks out onto the surrounding hayfield, making the property feel expansive with mountain views in the distance. The yard is just begging for a garden, hot tub, or both! This property provides the perfect weekend retreat or full-time residence for those looking to slow down and reconnect with nature. Enjoy hiking, local farms, and the area's scenic beauty right from your doorstep. East Durham itself has plenty to offer. Explore the nearby Zoom Flume Water Park, or visit the Durham Center Museum for a glimpse into local history. In the summer months, the annual Irish Arts Week brings live music, dance, and culture to the region. Nearby in Oak Hill you'll find the renowned Pidgin and Wild Flower florist. Don't forget to grab a fresh meal at Gracie's Luncheonette on your way upstate. This retreat is only 15 minutes to Windham Mountain for outdoor adventures year-round, and only 30 minutes to Hudson for easy commuting via Amtrak. Experience serene country living here, with the convenience of city access just a short drive away.
