Legacy estate built into a hillside at 2,400 feet above sea level with far-reaching mountain views, Sul Monte is a of rare architectural pedigree and natural beauty. Commissioned in 1921 by opera legend Amelita Galli-Curci and designed by Harrie Thomas Lindeberg, one of the most respected country house architects of the 20th century, the home blends European country house traditions with an American sense of scale and ease. The result is a residence both gracious and grounded, expressive in form yet timeless in spirit. Set on 61 acres of terraced lawns, wildflower meadows, specimen trees, and woodlands with walking trails, the property offers sweeping views across the Catskills. Its half-timbered facade, leaded glass windows, and sculpted cedar shake roof evoke the romance of the English countryside, while interiors reveal over 8,200 square feet designed for both entertaining and private living. Enter through the porte cochere into an all-season mudroom leading to the spacious eat-in kitchen and adjacent breakfast room. From here, a generous butler's pantry, complete with original cabinetry, a vintage warming cabinet, and a zinc-clad sink, connects to both the informal dining room with leaded glass and stone floors and the formal dining room with beamed ceilings, fireplace, and a built-in bar concealed behind paneled doors. At the heart of the home, the living room blends comfort, character, and versatility. A wall of built-in bookcases displays books and personal collections, while a deluxe billiards table anchors the space beneath its original pendant light. A cozy seating area centers around the carved mantel bearing Galli-Curci's initials flanked by foxes, an enduring nod to Sul Monte's storied past. With leaded glass windows, wide-plank floors, and period details throughout, the room invites both lively gatherings and quiet evenings at home. Just beyond, a sunroom perfectly frames Catskill Mountain views and offers an inviting spot for a morning read or evening aperitif. Monumental windows framed in stone flood the great room with natural light, accentuating its soaring ceilings and exposed timber trusses. Originally Galli-Curci's private rehearsal studio, the space now serves as a magnificent setting for music, gatherings, or peaceful downtime. Its scale, light, and craftsmanship give the great room a presence that's both impressive and inviting. Up a private staircase from the great room, the primary suite is rich in character, with a barrel-vaulted ceiling, diamond-paned windows, and a deep window seat perfectly poised for taking in the grounds and views beyond. The suite includes a dressing room lined with mirrored closet doors and an en suite bath with original tilework and fixtures, positioned to capture western sunset light. Five additional bedrooms are gracious and well-proportioned, four of which feature finely crafted built-in closets. All six of the home's bathrooms retain original 1920s porcelain fixtures. Tucked into a beautifully landscaped corner of the grounds, the saline, heated pool also enjoys expansive views and offers a tranquil escape just a short stroll across the lawn from the house, ideal for a morning swim, a relaxed afternoon, or gathering with friends at sunset. Other features include an indoor sauna, expansive flagstone terrace, a small barn, a charming shed, and a four-room studio space with a bathroom and kitchen above the garage, currently used as a potter's studio, with potential for guest or staff accommodations with additional improvements. Located minutes from Belleayre Mountain Ski Resort and the hamlets of Phoenicia, Margaretville, and Fleischmanns, Sul Monte is just 2.5 hours from NYC and within easy reach of Woodstock and other Hudson Valley destinations. More than a residence, Sul Monte is a piece of architectural heritage, shaped by Lindeberg's belief that great homes are meant not just to endure, but to be lived in fully and shared generously.

There is a point along the private road where the outside world seems to disappear. Travel nearly half a mile beneath a canopy of trees before turning onto a long private drive, where old stacked stone walls guide you another quarter mile through the landscape. And then, almost unexpectedly, Quarry Ridge reveals itself. Set against the Catskill Mountains and surrounded by 12.4 private acres, this modern farmhouse has a quiet presence that feels entirely at home here. Just beyond the house, a magnificent meadow opens within a frame of old bluestone walls. It is the kind of place that immediately makes you imagine what could be. An entertainment barn strung with lights and filled with friends, another home creating a true Upstate compound, native wildflowers alive with honey bees, or perhaps you do absolutely nothing and let it remain wild. The luxury is having the space to decide. Step inside to a proper foyer, a true receiving place where guests can arrive and settle in without feeling rushed into the rest of the home. A powder room and private sauna are conveniently located here, just right for warming up after an afternoon hiking or snowshoeing your own land. Nearby, a flexible office and den with its own separate entrance creates an ideal work from home setup for a doctor, therapist, massage therapist, consultant or anyone who wants to welcome clients without bringing them through the private areas of the house. The home begins to reveal its understated luxury as you move beyond the foyer into the airy chef's kitchen and dining room. An oversized island creates a natural gathering place, while on chilly days the warm glow of the wood burning stove becomes a welcome focal point. From here, the house opens into a sun filled great room anchored by an enormous stone fireplace. Walls of windows and three sets of French doors draw the landscape inside, while the wraparound porch extends the living space outdoors for morning coffee, long dinners with friends and watching the mountains change with the seasons. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a dramatic glimpse of the ever changing Catskill Mountains, a grand display of all four seasons framed just beyond the windows. The spacious bath offers a soaking tub, separate shower and double vanity. Two additional bedrooms complete this level. A loft has been thoughtfully arranged as a wellness and reflection space for yoga, meditation or simply a moment of stillness. Nearby, a cozy reading room looks across the property toward the soaring Catskills. There is something special about the juxtaposition, an intimate place to read, learn or reflect while looking out onto the vastness of the wilderness and perhaps catching a glimpse of something larger than ourselves. What stays with you most is the relationship between the house and the land. Eagles overhead, deer crossing the lawn, stars filling a dark night sky, wildflowers moving in the breeze and mountains that never look quite the same twice. All of this privacy is only minutes from Woodstock Village. A property with presence, land with possibility and a home that offers something increasingly rare, the space to experience the Catskills exactly as you imagined them.
