Ranch 44 - Just off the drawing board and For Sale

Another Day, Another Ranch hot off the presses, fresh off the drawing board, hot out of the oven.  It's the smaller of the two bigger ranches, what we have taken to calling our Mid-Sized ranches.  

Again in Kerhonkson.  Again off of Ridgeview Road.  Again off a private pretty road.  We present.....Ranch 44.

This 1900+/- home has pleased a lot of families.  2 bedrooms upstairs that share a big bath, and 1 bedroom on the ground floor that has a bath itself.

Ranch 31 - Stone Ridge, Ulster County, NY



The kitchen is open and has a clear shot across the entire first floor living space, including the wood burning fireplace and out to the deck.  There are two living rooms - one on each floor.

Ranch 33 - Bethel, Sullivan County, NY



Deck and screened porch add another 300 sq ft to the house during 3 seasons, and are fed right off the kitchen.

New Barn House for Sale in Kerhonkson- Barn 37

In order to meet demand, we are working hard to get our existing contracted homes rolling and get a few more in the 'ground'.  This home is just getting started and will be ready later in the year.

To that point, let me introduce Barn 37, a thoroughly modern lofty structure with a ton of windows and light.  We built the first one these back in 2010 or so, with the help of a young designer woman who envisioned a barn that played off previous versions of homes we built, but with a new slant.  From there it evolved over the years to include a front mudroom popout, a screened porch, a neat first floor bedroom/bath suite.  It weighs in at just under 2000 sf, has 2.5 baths, and 3 bedrooms.  Also has, will have, a basement with light and glass that could be finished at any point.

A similar barn home just finished.



This home benefited from a mistake a few years ago, where the house framer got something so wrong in the layout that it helped us see new ways to lay the house out, leading to a 2nd bath on the 2nd floor that made all the difference in terms of ease of ultimate use.


Will be located on the last lot on a private road in Kerhonkson NY, a road with 3 other Catskill Farms' homes.


3 or 4 different takes on the main space.





Easy house to love and live in.  Priced at $580,000.
