Nearly Christmas

Here's the home we are building in Livingston Manor, near the Beaverkill Valley.  Amazing spot of the Catskills.  Just starting the sheetrock phase.



Our spec house in Accord NY is coming along, with the countertop going in today.


My attorney, Bill Onofry, working hard on the behalf of our endless tasks.


Seems like we have an entire filing cabinet at Mr Onofry's office, which I thought was impressive.


We get some gifts at Christmas, and this box of steaks was high on the list this year.  From Mike at ProBuild.



We nearly made it another year.  That would 15 of them, remarkably enough.

Blogging Issue Conquered

Ever since Apple changed their photo storage system I've been struggling on this blog to upload them, and then came one clear-headed day and wallah, I figured it out.


Busy fall for sure.


Finishing up our Ranch in Milan NY near Red Hook, north of Rhinebeck.





Found this beach spot on some lake while scouting for land the other day.  Can hear my insurance agent cringing about that old school diving board and slide.

Our local Vet liaison preparing for Veterans Day in Eldred NY.  Good job Pete.



And who doesn't know this place?  Dog Mountain Lodge, where dogs stay while owners are away and play.


I happen to be in Miami Beach and the sun streaming into this bayside condo.




With 6 foundations going in the ground and 6 other houses under construction, one could say I should get my ass home.

Sullivan County NY Real Estate and Construction Projects.

Sullivan county NY real estate is probably the best value with in 2 hours of the city.  Offers the most diverse land offerings and most glorious settings.  I've been living and building and designing and fathering here since 2002.  Here are a few of the local projects we currently have going -


A 3400 sq ft Barn home on 200 acres in Livingston Manor, NY.  This is a custom build.



A barn cottage in Bethel New York.  This home will be for sale shortly. Bethel NY.


Come with pond access.



This new 1600 sq ft farmhouse is spoken for and just getting started.  Bethel NY.


And a 1300 sq ft cottage that will be for sale shortly.  Bethel NY.


And then we have this finished farmhouse for sale in Narrowsburg NY.
