Hanne's House is an imaginative artist's retreat from the city set on over forty-six picturesque acres in a region known for its abundance of broad rivers, rolling meadows, and far-reaching mountain views. Originally built as a modest hunting cabin in the 40s, the current owner, a Danish-born multi-disciplinary artist, has spent the past four decades creating organically an exceptionally unique home with a sprawling layout and numerous cozy moments. Every corner and detail has a story, from the countless hand-crafted fireplaces to the antique doors, the multilevel decks, and the artistic and wild tree house.

The three bedrooms, four-bath main house, sided with very resilient and locally sourced hemlock wood, has three wood-burning fireplaces and seven antique and fully functioning wood stoves. The primary suite is magical, complete with a dressing room, a bath with an antique copper bathtub, and a stone fireplace, all perched above a year-round stream meandering through the rocks underneath it. The house seamlessly flows between the outdoors and indoors, with balconies, porches, and a gazebo tucked cleverly off many of the rooms. There is an expansive, light-filled studio on the top level and another artist's workshop off the living room. A wellness space, currently used as a yoga studio, has vaulted ceilings and copious natural light, and is accompanied by a Scandinavian sauna. The kitchen and the family room are intimately connected with a fireplace and a cooking wood stove anchoring them both.

A finished barn with another wood stove and a sleeping loft is a perfect guest house or a writer's cabin with forever views of the mountains and the Schoharie River in the distance. Amidst meandering pathways, wildflower meadows, and the surrounding woods are two beautiful ponds, one of which is just short of 20 feet deep and perfect for swimming. The house, a love letter to the birds, bees, and butterflies, sits far from the road amidst breathtaking, far-reaching natural landscapes.

Near Hanne's House, you will find endless outdoor activities, such as the Hunter and Windham ski resorts, the Windham Path for long walks with epic valley views, and several spots for wild swimming. Lunch and morning coffee at the nearby Fellow Mountain Cafe can't be missed, and Catskill outposts like Scribner's, Hotel Lilien, Eastwind, and Wylder are the ideal spots for drinks, dinner, and any overflow of guests. Private but far from isolated, the property is just 15 minutes from Windham Village, 20 minutes from Hunter and Tannersville, 40 minutes to Woodstock, and two hours and 15 minutes from New York City.
