An Updated Country Cottage with Room to Grow
Jane Anderson | October 22, 2025
Hankins is a quiet corner of already-quiet Sullivan County.
What better place for an updated country cottage? Oak Ridge is move-in ready and set on five acres.
The black exterior gives way to a bright white interior. In addition to the front door next to the kitchen part of the great room, a screened porch at one end of the house has doors that open to the living-room side.
The kitchen cabinets are a deep, blue-gray tone, topped with white quartz counters.
A sliding barn door conceals…
…a modern bath with a glass shower and a pedestal sink. We love that backlit mirror.
Bamboo Roman shades offer a retro feel to this dramatically dark-walled primary bedroom.
It, too, has a sliding barn door to the ensuite bath.
A marble-and-glass-encased shower is a focal point here, along with a dual-sink, marble-topped vanity.
This secondary bedroom is bright with sunlight and pale walls. That patterned carpet is a stunner.
The other secondary bedroom is bright, too.
Upstairs, a lounge area is perfect for, well, lounging. It’s bright and airy with a peaked ceiling.
An office with floating shelves occupies the space on the other side up here.
Did we mention that the screened porch has a hot tub?
There’s plenty of room for a dining table, too.
A two-story barn on the property was converted to a studio. It has electricity and water.
The lower level was initially a darkroom…
…and the vaulted second floor awaits your imagination.
The property is five miles from Callicoon and just about kisses the banks of the Delaware River. It’s listed for $599,000.
