338 Mossy Hill Rd

Wild blueberries grow here without anyone's permission or encouragement - they are one small tell for the many, many small, natural things that combine to make this nearly 10-acre parcel in the Catskills extraordinary. The light here is particular; filtered through a canopy of towering trees, creating sparkle on the flowing grasses of the forest floor early in the morning, and later in the day, warming the needles of the pines that have been here longer than anyone can say - the scent they impart to the atmosphere is amazing. This land holds a quiet that will become increasingly rare in Catskill, one of the Hudson Valley and Catskill Region's most sought-after communities, as it continues to grow in popularity. It sits down the road from Piaule, the destination resort and restaurant that has become an idyll for what beautiful living looks like in this landscape. The surrounding neighborhood reflects that same standard. What this parcel offers, within that context, is privacy and possibility. The practical work has been done: the land is buildable, perc-tested, and a septic design conveys with the sale. What remains is entirely your decision -- a modern home that makes the most of the setting, a chalet that leans into the mountain region's vernacular, a reproduction colonial home with gardens, an oversized kitchen with a woodstove, and gracious, luxurious baths? In a market where finished inventory is scarce and moves at the speed of light, the opportunity to build exactly what you want, where you want it is appealing. This land's secrets await. It knows how to be still. You could be still here as well.
