Home Details for 53 Yorktown Road

Nestled along the banks of the famed Willowemoc Creek in the heart of Roscoe, New York—widely known as “Trout Town USA”—this charming American Foursquare home offers the perfect blend of historic character and exceptional riverfront living. With 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and approximately 1,524 square feet, this beautifully maintained property sits on a peaceful stretch of the creek with private river frontage and direct access to some of the region’s most celebrated trout waters. Inside, the home was painted within the last 2.5 years, both bathrooms are updated, most of the house has new flooring, while the kitchen/dining area and downstairs bathroom feature radiant heated floors for year-round comfort. The living room includes preparation and venting for a pellet stove, offering an easy option for additional warmth and cozy ambiance. Both the front and back porches have been rebuilt, one finished with durable Trex decking, creating ideal spaces to relax while overlooking the property and listening to the river. Downstairs, a restaurant-grade water filtration system enhances water quality throughout the home. The water heater and boiler are both under 10 years old, and a new furnace was installed in 2017. Additional improvements include replacement windows, a roof installed in 2010, and professional excavation around the home 2.5 years ago to optimize drainage. A full walk-up attic provides exciting possibilities—perfect for creating a third-floor guest suite, studio, or private retreat. Outside, the property feels like a small riverside sanctuary. Concord grapes and rhubarb grow naturally on the land, complemented by fruit trees, flower gardens, and a lush lawn stretching toward the river beneath the sweeping branches of mature willows. Set on a quiet private dead-end road that is paved and maintained by the town, the home offers both privacy and convenience. Beyond the property, Roscoe and the surrounding Catskills provide endless recreation. Spend your nights at Catskill Resort Casino and your days fly fishing on Willowemoc Creek and the nearby Beaver Kill, hiking in Catskill Park, exploring local breweries, or skiing at Holiday Mountain Ski and Fun Park. With charming shops, farm markets, and restaurants, Roscoe perfectly balances small-town charm with world-class outdoor adventure. Rich with character, this classic American Foursquare riverfront home offers Catskills living at its finest—historic charm, thoughtful improvements, and legendary trout fishing right outside your door.
