Farmhouse with Swimming Pond in Callicoon Center, $850K

  |  October 24, 2025

Set along one of the county’s most desirable country roads, where farmland and gracious living meet, this solid three-story farmhouse sits among velvety lawns and fruit trees. Once part of a dairy farm, the land, originally a dowry, is anchored by a spring-fed swimming pond with a shaded dock and ladder, perfect for summer afternoons.


Inside, the traditional farmhouse layout begins at a central foyer. The sunny kitchen, with its vintage gas stove, fridge, and sink (and a new dishwasher), opens to a dining nook framed by an arched alcove overlooking the pond. A back door leads to a large deck and a refreshing outdoor shower. Nearby, a former smokehouse now serves as a storage shed.

The paneled dining room welcomes lively gatherings, while the living room, centered on a wood-burning fireplace, invites cozy evenings and music on the owner’s turntable. A breezeway connects the house to the garage.

Upstairs, the expanded primary bedroom is a peaceful retreat, joined by a full bath with a tub and separate shower, plus two additional bedrooms. The finished attic offers four charming rooms with sloped ceilings, perfect for guests, hobbies, or workspaces.

Outside, the property hums with birdsong, from orioles and catbirds to hawks and warblers. The grounds extend beyond a picturesque stone wall to include half the next field. A hidden stone foundation on the hillside could easily become a destination for outdoor dining or play under string lights.

This Catskills home blends timeless charm with serene country living.

About Country House Realty

While sitting at my desk in New York, selling mortgage-backed securities at Credit Suisse, I’d surf the internet dreaming of fishing the hallowed trout rivers of The Catskills. Then one day a little red cottage on the Neversink River popped up on my screen, and the rest is history. I battled Friday night traffic in summer, and lived the weekender routine for a few years before giving-in and becoming a full-timer. Now I delight in finding like-minded folks who treasure peace and quiet, and value the powerful pleasures of country life, and look to find their dream spot here in Upstate New York.
