176 Maple Ln Narrowsburg, NY 12764

Situated at about the highest point in the Narrowsburg area on 7.18 private acres - surrounded on nearly all sides by undeveloped land. This beautifully crafted 2021 home has had numerous upgrades, with a heated saline pool and hot tub, offering a rare combination of modern construction, resort-style amenities, high-end finishes, and peace-of-mind privacy. Yet the town is just seven minutes away. The long, curving driveway sets the tone immediately, pulling you away from the road and into a forest world of ferns, hardwoods, and quietude. Entering the home through the rocking-chair porch, the living room centers on a wood-burning fireplace that earns its keep in winter. Wide-plank pine floors and a wood shiplap ceiling create an earthy warmth. Other details, like the reclaimed barn wood hearth and barn-style doors, complete the country house motif. The dining area has a pair of Lekker Home pendant lights and a large picture window from which to gaze at the surrounding woods. The kitchen is a chef's dream: Wolf gas range with a pot filler, Fischer & Paykel refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, quartz countertops, and Schoolhouse Electric sconces. The large island has loads of storage and barstools for grabbing an informal meal. Two large pantries provide additional storage. The first bedroom is adjacent to the kitchen and has huge picture windows facing the pool and the woods. The first-floor full bathroom is lovely, with a large walk-in glass shower finished in hexagonal tile and bluestone floors. The sunroom is something special - radiant-heated floors, Spanish tile, skylights, a Minka Aire ceiling fan, and natural light that moves through the space in a way that can only be described as romantic. It's the kind of room that makes you want to linger, do yoga, or put in some miles on the stationary bike. Heading upstairs, there is a landing with a closet and a skylight. The upstairs bedrooms offer the same sense of quiet and light that defines the rest of the home, with picture windows framing the surrounding woodlands and top-grade Minka Aire fans keeping things comfortable through the warmer months. The back deck overlooks this veritable retreat, and a plumbed Weber grill - so no pesky propane canister changing - is at the ready. The owners were deliberate about the sun when siting the pool, and it shows. Despite being nestled in the forest, the property enjoys exceptional light. The result is an 18x42' heated saline pool surrounded by a bluestone patio that feels genuinely resort-like, with a hot tub and propane fire pit nearby when the mood strikes. Ferns line the home's perimeter, and the fence extends into the woods. A 5-foot fence around the backyard keeps wildlife out and the pets from going AWOL. The tranquility of lying by the pool listening to the quiet woods is, frankly, unmatched. A 10x14' garden shed out front was designed to match the home and handle the garden tools and more. Mechanically, the home is as dialed-in as its design. Forced air and radiant heat, central A/C, on-demand hot water, drilled well, septic, and Spectrum internet ensure comfortable year-round living. Cell service is excellent, and an EV charger in the driveway (yes, in the middle of the woods) and a rear crawl space with a freezer and room for extra storage round things out. The neighborhood, too, is something the current owners speak warmly about - kind, welcoming people and a genuine sense of community.
