This 1920 Woodstock cottage is a five-minute walk to the center of Woodstock and the Trailways bus stop and an equal distance to swimming holes in the Sawkill River. Our cottage was remodeled and enlarged in 2018 and has lots of charm. The first floor has an open plan with windows and French doors on all sides that allow abundant sunlight and views in every direction. The living room has exposed wood beams and a propane fireplace to snuggle up to in the winter. It opens onto a cozy adjoining room with large windows and pocket doors that serves as a media room or guest room with a queen-sized convertible sofa and a large flat screen TV. The intimate office nook with a greenhouse window is an ideal place to read, write or work on the computer. The first-floor bathroom has a Mission style tiled shower stall and skylight. The spacious, fully equipped kitchen and dining area are bright and sunny with a butcher block island for casual eating at one end and a dining area with table and a set of 6 Vintage wrought iron ice cream parlor chairs at the other. From the dining area French doors open up to the screen porch, a comfortable space to eat or relax in the warmer months and enjoy the views of the landscape with its rustic rock work. A second pair of French doors leads from the dining area to an outdoor propane grill and a beautiful, terraced garden. Upstairs is the master bedroom with a queen-sized bed and closet. The guest bedroom has a twin day bed with pop-up trundle and an armoire. There's also a full bathroom with tub shower and Mission style tile. A large built-in cabinet on the landing provides storage space for towels and bed linens. The house comfortably sleeps 6 people. There's a full house Generac generator to provide power in the unlikely event that Woodstock loses power because of stormy weather. The cottage is surrounded by gardens and blue stone walkways and a circular patio. Perennial flowers, bushes and mature trees make the house a private hideaway. The terraced landscape in the back of the property has curving stone walls, massive rock steps and a blue stone patio with wicker furniture and a propane fire pit to sit around at night. At the center of the garden is a beautiful cascade with meditative sounds of water falling into two ponds. The upper lawn has a wrought iron table and chairs and is bordered by masses of native wildflowers and a grove of Thuya trees, a pleasant spot for lounging in the summer. Only a 2 hour’s drive up the Hudson Valley from New York City, visitors to Tannery Brook Cottage can enjoy all that Woodstock’s renowned community has to offer - shopping, restaurants, museums and art galleries, musical concerts, theater, opera, performing arts, Woodstock School of Art, Byrdcliffe Arts and Crafts Colony, Woodstock Film Festival, Tibetan Buddhist and Zen Centers, Yoga studios, spas, hiking, swimming, fishing, skiing, horseback riding, scenic bike routes, rail trails, golfing and seasonal farmers' markets and flea markets.
