Tucked away off a quiet, seasonal road on the side of Mount Warren in the town of Stamford in the Catskill Mountain region of Upstate NY, this sweet cabin offers the ultimate escape from the everyday. The cabin was originally built as a rustic getaway without a building permit, so a Certificate of Occupancy was never issued.
Set on about 5 acres in a sunny clearing surrounded by forest, this peaceful retreat offers privacy, nature, and potential. Enjoy morning coffee on the deck while looking out toward the mountains—views that could possibly be enhanced further with selective clearing. A charming pond filled with goldfish and koi, along with raspberry bushes around the property, add to the sense of retreat and simple living.
Inside, the cabin is light, bright, and welcoming. The great room features large windows that bring the outside in and glass doors that open out to the deck. The open kitchen and dining area are thoughtfully designed, while the full bathroom with shower provides convenience and comfort. A cozy woodstove and electric baseboard heat keep the cabin comfortable, and the upstairs loft offers a peaceful place to sleep under the eaves.
Additional features include a metal roof, pier foundation, private well, septic system, electric, and high-speed Internet access already in place—making it a fully functioning homestead or weekend haven.
Located just a short drive from the charming village of Stamford, you'll also have access to approximately 150 acres of nearby NYC DEP Watershed land, open to the public for light recreation such as hiking or nature walks.
If you're dreaming of a secluded retreat where you can unplug, unwind, and reconnect with nature—this hidden gem might just be the one!
