Summary
Hamlin House is a charming escape in the heart of the Catskills, located 2 hours from NYC.
Set on 50 peaceful and wooded acres with plenty of space to explore, this home has 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths. Amenities include a fireplace, firepit, access to the Willowemoc Creek for fishing, outdoor dining, and access to the best hiking and dining in the region. Main St. in Livingston Manor is just minutes away!
The Home
Built in 1865, Hamlin House is nestled in a clearing on the edge of 50 private wooded acres just a 5-minute drive from Main Street in Livingston Manor and 6 minutes from Roscoe. Just across the road, the property features 1,100 yards of riverfront rights on the Willowemoc, one of the area's hallowed trout rivers.
Throughout the five-bedroom farmhouse, the interior design showcases the original features such as pressed tin ceilings, rosewood floors with intricate wood-work and exposed rafters, and juxtaposes them with a mix of 1970s modern European furniture and pieces from current New York-based designers.
The well-stocked chef's kitchen has includes a modern Wolf gas range and oven, two sinks, dishwasher, wine fridge, and Mocamaster coffee machine. Sip coffee in the breakfast nook or continue on to the dining room to host a memorable feast for friends and family.
A short hallway extends from the kitchen to the dining room on one end and a full bathroom on the other. Across from the kitchen is the sun-soaked living room with pressed tin ceilings, a fireplace, a collection of games and puzzles, and a high-end vintage stereo with streaming capability and vinyl collection. Continue into the den and cozy up on the large L-shaped De Sede buffalo leather sofa with 55' Roku TV.
Upstairs, the main bedroom has a king bed and en suite bathroom with a clawfoot tub and shower. The second floor features four more bedrooms: another king, two queens, and a twin, along with a shared bathroom with a shower and tub. Each room has been thoughtfully decorated with handpicked items, crisp linens, and vintage rugs atop hardwood floors throughout. A dedicated landing office connects the two sides of the second story.
Head outside to the bluestone patio to grill or over to the fire pit and stargaze to the soothing background sound of Boscom Brook.
Pro Tip: The design approach to this house features many beautiful and delicate pieces. We really discourage families with young children from selecting this particular property. But send us an email, and we can direct you to a more bulletproof family option!
