Home Details for 116 Francis Drive

Set on twelve and a half private, wooded acres at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this custom-designed contemporary ranch, built in 2018, blends modern architecture with the natural beauty of the Catskills. Woodland Modern is designed for effortless single-level living and a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape. Energy Star certified and built with passive solar design, this home runs on remarkably little: owned rooftop solar panels, triple-pane windows, high-efficiency heat pumps, and all-electric construction deliver year-round comfort at a fraction of the usual cost. The two-car garage has an EV charger, and the mudroom area sits just across from the garage door. Enter through a sweet screened-in porch, where a coat closet and a washer/dryer setup greet you on either side. More than 2,600 square feet unfold entirely on one floor, and the design flows from the moment you walk in. Step into the Great Room, and the first impression is space: both horizontal and vertical. Soaring 21-foot ceilings, exposed timber beams, and a stone fireplace that runs floor-to-ceiling set the tone. Dinner parties are easily envisioned under the star chandelier, and in fact this room has accommodated numerous gatherings. The kitchen is both form and function. The Bosch induction range is a joy to cook on, with uber-precise settings, and the double wall ovens will make any home baker's life easier. The island and abundant cabinetry offer serious storage without sacrificing style, and the layout flows effortlessly into the dining and living areas. A bathroom near the first bedroom does double duty as the guest bath when company is over. The bedroom across the hall has its own en suite, with a deep soaking tub and a glass shower. Down the hall, a bedroom has been commandeered into a den. It’s equally suited as an office, guest room, exercise room, or media space. The primary suite rests at the end of the home, with room enough for a California king, a walk-in closet, a private bath, and its own direct access outside. Outside, Woodland Modern truly shines. The front deck, screened porch, and patio each take a different angle on the surrounding forest. The fenced-in, raised-bed organic gardens, mature blueberry and raspberry bushes, and an orchard of apple, peach, nectarine, plum, pear, and cherry trees make the property a green thumb's playground. There is a whole-house generator fired by a 500 gallon, buried and owned propane tank Although wonderfully secluded, it’s just minutes from Narrowsburg's acclaimed restaurants, boutiques, galleries, farmers market, and the Delaware River. It’s as easy to enjoy as grabbing an inner tube, kayak, fishing pole, or paddleboard and hitting the water.
