Welcome to 93 Sundown Road. From the moment you enter this charming Catskills home, you will be transported to a time when life felt simpler and more peaceful. Built in 1820, this three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath retreat has been lovingly restored to reflect its historical origins without sacrificing modern conveniences.
Inviting outdoor spaces provide numerous places to slow down, unwind, and experience the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape. As you approach the long bluestone pathway, you'll take in the lush lawn and mature landscaping that gently buffer the property from the quiet country road.
The formal entry opens to a spacious covered front porch, with room to enjoy morning coffee, evening meals, or a quiet moment during the warmer months. Inside, original overhead beams throughout the lower level and original wide-plank wood floors upstairs speak to its early craftsmanship, while thoughtfully chosen finishes remain true to its distinctive character.
The first floor also showcases wide plank wood flooring. The inviting living room creates a cozy setting in which to gather with friends and loved ones. The adjacent dining room with inviting French doors open to a bluestone patio overlooking the expansive back field, garden, and raised bed for growing herbs and vegetables.
The dining room connects easily to the kitchen and includes a nook with a wood-burning stove, an ideal place to warm up on those crisp days. The large eat-in kitchen features a new stainless-steel stove and refrigerator, large center island, ample storage, and plenty of counter space for everyday cooking and gathering.
Enjoy breakfast while looking out toward the rock outcroppings through shutter-lined windows. The laundry room and half bath are conveniently accessed via the kitchen. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms plus a media room/den, each with generous closet space.
The full bathroom features a crisp tiled tub and shower, perfect for soaking after a long hike. In season, iris and tiger lilies bloom outside the rear windows, adding color and softness to the setting. The generously sized mudroom offers practical storage for coats, shoes, sporting equipment, and outdoor gear, with easy access to the breezeway and the home's 200+ year-old root cellar.
Just up the hill to the right, a private deck situated above the root cellar offers another peaceful place to take in the views, sights, and sounds of the property. 93 Sundown Road has benefited from the loving care and attentive maintenance deserving of this unique property.
Following their purchase in 1997, the current owners thoughtfully restored the home to honor its historical appearance while enhancing its comfort and functionality. Improvements include the preservation of its original clapboard exterior, painted interior and exterior, replaced all windows, replaced furnace, newer stainless-steel appliances, new g
