Tucked away at the end of a quiet town-maintained road in Meredith, this extraordinary Catskills retreat begins with a gated entrance and sweeping driveway that leads to a stunning private ten-acre lake entirely contained within the property boundaries. Encompassing 141 acres of pristine countryside, this cedar contemporary home offers unmatched privacy, serenity, and natural beauty in a truly one-of-a-kind setting. The picturesque landscape blends open lawns, a tranquil lake, protected forest, and a beautifully designed Japanese-inspired rock garden perched along the lake's edge, creating a peaceful setting for reflection and relaxation. A lakeside dock provides easy access to the water for kayaking, fishing, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Many trails wind throughout the property, offering endless opportunities for hiking, exploring, and year-round outdoor recreation. Home to abundant wildlife, the property is a haven for nature lovers, where deer, birds, and other native species are regularly seen throughout the grounds. Thoughtfully custom-designed, the home features traditional Japanese-inspired elements and a warm, inviting atmosphere. The living room offers a wonderful sense of scale and comfort, complete with lake views and a wood-burning stove. An open-concept layout flows seamlessly from the beamed-ceiling dining area to the kitchen, where expansive windows frame tranquil views of the water. The spacious primary suite serves as a private sanctuary featuring vaulted ceilings, a skylight, a jacuzzi bath, and calming lake views. Rich oak flooring, Shoji sliding doors, and carefully crafted architectural details throughout add timeless character and understated elegance. Rarely does a property combine this level of privacy, acreage, waterfront, wildlife, and distinctive design. A truly remarkable Catskills offering unlike any other.
