Catskill Terraces will be a community of 10 modern, architect-designed homes, spread across 88 acres of terraced, forested land. Significant portions of each parcel will remain wooded, affording each of the homes a sense of privacy and the peace and solitude for which the Catskills area is so well-known.

Lot 1 features expansive views of the Hudson Valley and a breathtaking glimpse of the Kaaterskill Wild Forest making this wooded, terraced property the perfect site for a nature-lover's retreat. Perched at the top edge of a 70-foot cliff, this site has excellent dream home potential. East-facing views are a guarantee for spectacular sunrises, while beautiful evening light cascades from the visible western Catskills ridgeline. A short driveway off of a private rural road leads to the building site. Dedicated greenbelt areas guarantee that tree cover will remain intact between neighboring lots, ensuring continued privacy.

Site electrical will be completed along the road to the beginning of a short driveway, and Board of Health approvals for septic designs are in place. Two of the 10 lots are currently under construction.

Saugerties has remained a quaint historic village that has attached creative urban transplants for decades with the promise of new beginnings. Catskill Terraces is a short drive to the Saugerties town center and is balanced by unparalleled access to the Kaaterskill Wild Forest for autumn hikes, Hunter and Windham for winter ski trips, and many nearby summer swimming holes and kayaking on the Hudson River. There are so many great food establishments such as Olsen & Co, Miss Lucy’s, Red Onion (in nearby Woodstock), and Alleyway Ice Cream, as well as local breweries and farm stands. 

Come spend the weekend at one of the many inns or short-term rentals in the area to experience what life would be like in your very own custom-built home at Catskill Terraces, which is approximately 2 hours north of downtown Manhattan — a convenient drive, while still being far enough away to get that escape-from-the-city feeling. Enjoy all the area has to offer!
