THE BEACH TAVERN...circa 1800. A Historic CATSKILL Turnpike Stagecoach Tavern turned residence. First time being offered in over 30 years!! The owners painstakingly restored the residence with a purist mindset. FIVE CORNER DECORATIVE FIREPLACES, a 40 FOOT BALLROOM, original woodwork and 6 inch pine floors grace the home. A preservationists dream home with original details intact! The kitchen addition offers modern amenities like a hidden dishwasher, 5 burner gas stove, new appliances while honoring the past with a coal Kalamazoo cooktop stove and reclaimed 12-18 pine floors. Off the kitchen youll find a light-filled dining room with access to the lush side garden. A large living room overlooks the East Sidney Lake and mountain views! A separate parlour room would make an excellent formal living room or office. There is a spacious bedroom on the first floor and contemporary full bath. Upstairs there are three additional bedrooms. a 40 ballroom would make a spacious bedroom with sitting room or a home studio space. The property sits on 11.4 surveyed acres on both sides of the road. There is 775 feet of private East Sidney Lake access. A large barn rests on the other side of the road but doesnt hamper the mountain views! Close to the Village of Franklin which offers quaint shops like Blue Farm Antiques and the soon to come 422 Main St. 3 hours from the GWB!
