This stunning artisan crafted building offering nothing but options was constructed in 2016 by a father and son team. The son, an accomplished arborist and the father, a renowned furniture maker, together created this extraordinary timber frame building out of timbers, they themselves harvested and milled onsite. From the rough sawn pine support beams to custom built staircase with 2" thick Ash stair treads that ascend from the studio/great room to the second floor 1200 square foot loft living area, this building is an obvious labor of love. Formerly used as the office and shop for the owner's tree service, the ground level 1200 square foot studio/ great room space boast 16’ foot high ceilings with exposed rough sawn pine timbers w/custom black wrought iron mending plates and exposed 4” X 10” pine ceiling joists. The pictures cannot do this building justice, you have to see it to truly appreciate the craftsmanship and soaring ceiling height. The ground floor level also offers an adjacent full tiled bath with zero entry walk-in shower, office and large center anteroom, which could easily become primary bedroom suite and a two car tandem garage on the other side. As if this is not enough, the whole ground floor level is heated with radiant heat embedded in the concrete floor, making heating such a grand space very efficient. The upstairs loft living area features gorgeous 6” flush butt, clear maple floors with a striking vaulted trussed ceiling and large rear deck and Juliet balcony in the front. This area is heated and cooled using high efficiency mini–split heat pumps powered by roof mounted solar array with the benefit of little to no electric costs. The owner just installed a stunning new kitchen with a center Island cook top, sleek black granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, beautiful self close wood cabinets and custom made black walnut shelving. The building and property are a blank canvasses and could not be constructed today for the asking price. It could be a 2-3 bedroom single-family home with modifications. It could be a live-work space for an artist or crafts person or you could create an additional accessory apartment on the ground level. It’s limited only by your imagination! The 11.5 mile long Ashokan Rail Trail is right across the street, which runs from West Hurley to Boiceville, NY.
