Walker Valley Cottage: Pine Bush, NY
About The Property
Story has it that the Walker Valley Greens Co-Op was built by 12 friendly families from Brooklyn who wanted to own weekend homes in the Hudson Valley while maintaining the same securities and conveniences of a co-op, but with way more laid back rules. Fast forward to today and you’ll find peace and quiet among the 12 cottages on 12.03 acres with a communal pool and handball court. A low-cost monthly HOA covers driveway maintenance and plowing, swimming pool maintenance, handball court maintenance, lawn mowing, garbage removal, and all taxes.
This delightful 2 bed, 1.5 bath cottage sits off of a quiet road just minutes from the many of the Catskills' best outdoor attractions in Minnewaska State Park and the Shawangunk Ridge State Forest. Low price and low maintenance costs are rarely offered simultaneously, but cue the Walker Valley Cottage, inside of one of Ulster County’s only three co-ops.
In the manageably sized 1000 sqft home, you’ll find a cozy living area with cathedral ceilings, and a Hartman pellet stove fireplace insert which provides supplemental heat to the electric baseboard, and is really cost-effective. From the kitchen, head down the hall to 2 bedrooms, where you’ll find an en suite half bath and walk-in closet in the primary bedroom. In the rear of the home, the heated sunroom adds another gathering space for year-round enjoyment. Both front and back decks provide ample outdoor space, and the shed with electric would allow for a small guest studio or work space. The co-op’s maintenance perks make this home an effortless weekend getaway or full time living experience.
The Walker Valley Cottage is within a 5 minute drive to several great hiking spots in the Shawangunk Ridge State Forest and Roosa Gap State Forest. Popular areas within Minnewaska State Park like Awosting Reserve, Verkeerder Kill Falls, and Bear Hill Preserve are all within 5 minutes. The Walker Valley Cottage is also is a 15 minute drive to up-and-coming Ellenville, home of Market on Market, a monthly artisans and farmers market, and the soon to open Terrace Motel.
No short term rentals. Cash only.
