FarmHouse 35, SOLD - Saugerties NY
This whopping 2400 sq ft home on 5 acres 10 minutes from Kingston, Saugerties and Woodstock sold today to a family of 4, for our last sale of the year. We did about double the business of last year, and last year was no slouch of a year.

The perfect fire
The only thing I think they are forgetting is to use 'dry wood'. Ordering fire wood in Sept/Oct/Nov is a great recipe for shitty fires since it all starts with the wood.
Catskill Farms ReSales
People always want to know - or at least it's on there list of questions - about the resale of our homes. It's always been tough to answer for a few different reasons - first the recession made any sales questions hard to answer, and 2nd, not many families ever try/want to sell them.
Recently however, there have been a few come to the market and they have flown off the shelf at great prices - one literally went in 14 hours, another in 5 weeks, and a 3rd in 6 weeks and another in less than a month. That's pretty speedy for upstate real estate. As David Knudsen said a few weeks back, maybe Sullivan County's challenge isn't more wine bars and restaurants, but rather more good houses. I certainly agree with that, and have found it to be true over and over.
Cottage 9 in Eldred resold by Lazy Meadows Realty.
(since we were repainting it anyways, the new owners got to have their pick of colors).
Cottage 13 in Barryville.
Barn V in Narrowsburg seems to be going into contract - Country House Realty and Lazy Meadows Realty.

And then one up Saugerties last year.
Good taste priced right is a pretty good recipe for sure.
