Property Description
Tucked away on a serene three-acre parcel, The Cottage on Watson Hollow is a quintessential country retreat, reminiscent of a scene from the pages of Homes & Gardens magazine. This enchanting two-bedroom home is brimming with character, offering a rare blend of rustic charm and gracious living.
The grounds are a true natural sanctuary—open meadow space, flourishing perennial gardens, and wooded trails invite endless exploration, all set to the soothing soundtrack of a nearby rushing creek. Whether you're sipping coffee on the porch or wandering through the forest paths, you'll feel worlds away from the everyday.
Inside, the main floor unfolds into a bright and airy living room wrapped in oversized windows that frame the changing seasons like living artwork. A stately wood stove anchors the space, providing both warmth and ambiance for cozy evenings spent with loved ones. A dedicated dining room offers the perfect setting for dinner parties, holiday gatherings, or leisurely weekend brunches.
The kitchen is equal parts charming and functional, with generous cabinetry, ample prep space, and potential for further customization. The bathroom is a sanctuary, featuring a separate stall shower, a vintage clawfoot tub, and a picture window that brings the beauty of the forest indoors.
Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom easily accommodates a king-sized bed, while the secondary bedroom is ideal for guests, children, or a creative workspace. A separate mudroom with laundry facilities adds everyday practicality, making country living effortless.
In the warmer months, unwind on the screened-in porch, the perfect vantage point for enjoying your garden in full bloom. A detached garage is ready for your vision- ready to become your art studio, home office, guest quarters, or simply a place to stow all your gear.
Whether you're seeking a full-time residence or a weekend haven, The Cottage on Watson Hollow offers a rare opportunity to own a slice of upstate paradise- quiet, picturesque, and full of possibility.
