Property Description

Stream-side Mid-century Loft Home - A rare Catskills find, this authentic mid-century modern home pairs architectural pedigree with an extraordinary stream-side setting. Designed by Donald Cromley, an apprentice to renowned Bauhaus architect Marcel Breuer, the home has been beautifully preserved, retaining the original details and design principles that give it such a distinct sense of place.Set on two private acres bordering state land and perched well above the creek, the property encompasses more than 325 feet of creek frontage, creating a private environment shaped by water and woods.
