A mix of modern architecture and old-world charm makes the Floating Farmhouse, an 1820 Catskills manor home featured in Dwell magazine, an inspired destination. Perched at the edge of a pristine creek and ancient dam of hand-laid stone, the home's grand spaces, dramatic details, and expansive aura are as enchanting as the landscape surrounding it. A cathedral-like kitchen features polished concret
e floors, a wood-fired pizza oven, and a two-story wall of skyscraper glass framing views of the brook, gazebo, apple trees, and barn. French doors lead to a grand covered porch suspended over the water's edge, and the waterfall's cascading rhythms fill the great room and master suite. Original cast-iron beds and wavy glass windows adorn all sleeping quarters, and vintage farmhouse furnishings abound throughout. Two hours from NYC and sought primarily as a vacation rental for groups of family and friends, the Floating Farmhouse is ideally suited for weddings, location shoots, company retreats, and other events as well. Unique services, like personal chef and yoga instruction, can also be arranged at the Floating Farmhouse.
