Welcome to the Neversink Sanctuary.
Turn off National Geographic and head out to the backyard where you can enjoy the splendor of over 350’ of the wild Neversink River. Spend some time fishing or kayaking while watching the breeding pair of bald eagles as they tend to their chicks in the massive nest right across the river. The sprawling 3.50-acre property offers a peaceful retreat for the nature lover or outdoor enthusiast. With a spacious 3BR main house up by the road and a profitable short-term rental cabin with additional space down by the river, this unique property is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity.
The main house is a turnkey 1,456sf ranch with three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, an attached two-car garage, and a full unfinished walkout basement. The main level features a spacious living room, a large dining area, and a chef’s kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, granite countertops, a breakfast bar, ample cabinet space, and a pantry. All three bedrooms can fit a king-sized bed and have good closet space. Off the dining area is a massive deck with a motorized awning, Napolean grill, and views of the expansive yard. The large two-car garage has new openers and offers plenty of storage space. The full basement can easily be finished to double the square footage of the house. It has high ceilings and a door that leads to the backyard. The house has been well-maintained and is absolutely in move-in condition. There are so many features and upgrades, highlights include: Solar panels on the roof, Decorators Trex front porch, closed-cell spray foam in the attic, Generac 17kw whole-house generator, Culligan reverse osmosis water purification system, central AC, and a high-efficiency propane boiler. The house also benefits from municipal water, sewer, and trash pickup.
The main house is great, but the grounds are what truly sets this property apart. The sprawling yard has multiple sheds and a chicken coop. Towards the back of the property, the terrain slopes down leading to the river. The huge clearing is the setting for the riverfront cabin, which is currently a profitable short-term rental. The open space allows for additional income through multiple tent sites; there is so much untapped potential! The cabin, hand-made from locally sourced pine with a live-edge exterior, is insulated with closed-cell spray foam. It is set up as a studio with the porch facing the river. At the back of the cabin is a kitchen with a smoker, BBQ grill, fridge, and Big Green Egg. The cabin grounds are fully furnished with an outhouse, a firepit, picnic tables, outdoor furniture, lawn games, kayaks and river toys. With all of this plus over 350’ of the Neversink River and the bald eagles overhead, it’s no surprise why the Neversink Sanctuary is a hidden gem and 5-star getaway! As an added benefit, thanks to the sloped terrain, the cabin is not visible from the house, adding complete privacy for guests.
Whether you want to occupy the main house and run a short-term rental business in your backyard, or rent the entire property, the Neversink Sanctuary has so much to offer. Come see it for yourself to experience the beauty and possibilities.
