From the agent: "Floating Farmhouse, available for the first time. The circa 1820 four-bedroom home extends over 3,400 square feet and 8.7 idyllic acres of open fields, apple trees, and virgin pine forest in picturesque Sullivan County. Perched at the edge of a pristine Catskills swimming creek and waterfall cascading over a restored dam of ancient hand-laid stone, the home and its sprawling cantilevered covered porch ‘float’ above the surface of the water, giving this home its iconic name. Following a four-year design/rebuild process by acclaimed designer Tom Givone, the home has been meticulously restored to its period grandeur while melding uniquely modernist architecture."
