From the agent: "This 41-acre, ultra-private culinary farmstead lies at the foothills of the Catskill range with striking mountain views, open meadows, and deep pine forest. A long driveway lined with stone walls leads you into the property, where you’ll find the circa-1850 home. The traditional farmhouse was expanded in 2020 with a sensational modern addition of stacked stone quarried on the property and a floor-to-ceiling glass wall showcasing views of wildflower fields and shimmering rock outcroppings."
Fishcreek Farm sits on a 41-acre property with sweeping views of New York’s Catskill Mountains.
