Deep Hollow: Narrowsburg, NY
About The Property
The handsome Deep Hollow Hill is the best of many worlds. Not only do you have 18.8 acres and a babbling brook to enjoy but the convenience of being 3 minutes to Main St, Narrowsburg, one the cutest towns in the region. Not only do you have over 3000 sq ft in which to spread yourself out, but a heated pool and pool house in which to frolic.
This former boarding house was revived and updated with modern, efficient systems, including Pella windows, foam insulation, an on-demand hot water heating system, and a beautiful porch addition. The house has two entrances: a mudroom at the back with ample cabinet storage and a bench for changing out dirty hiking gear, and a striking red door that welcomes guests into the dining area.
The sunken living room features a high-efficiency wood-burning fireplace and a cozy movie watching on a wall-mounted TV. The open-design kitchen is perfect for dinner parties, with four barstools where guests can sit, sip cocktails, and chat. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area has sliding doors that lead to the dining porch. A trellis allows wisteria to form natural shade on warm summer days, and a grill stands at the ready.
The washer and dryer are conveniently located on the second floor, along with the primary suite, four other bedrooms, a full bathroom. The third floor includes the remaining two bedrooms and features a fire escape and sprinkler system as required by local code. The open area on this floor has previously been used as an office but would make a great play area or additional den.
There are two separate basement areas. The unfinished area contains the mechanicals and storage, while the finished basement is a cozy den, perfect for a pool table or movie watching, complete with a fridge and dry bar. A wood stove keeps this area warm in winter. The basement walks out to another outdoor area under the deck, featuring a fire pit in the large front yard.
The pool area is an ideal summer retreat, with a large deck surrounding the 1,000 sq ft pool, a shady spot under a red sail canopy. The 600 sq ft pool house serves as a playroom for all ages. The pool is equipped with a new, efficient heat pump to keep the saltwater at the perfect temperature.
The house benefits from the soothing sounds of a year-round stream just below, creating your own oasis of calm. The dead-end road sees next-to-zero cars passing by.
In the late 1800s and early 1900s, boarding houses were a common way to escape the heat in NYC. Fresher, gentler country air beckoned, and people took the passenger train from the city up to Narrowsburg and decamped for the summer. One can imagine this was a popular one with its babbling stream running through the property and leafy surroundings.
