Smještena na najprestižnijem dijelu Catskilla, NY, s panoramskim pogledom na rijeku Hudson, most Rip Van Winkle i Olanu Frederica Churcha, pronaći ćete viktorijansku kuću suca Emoryja Chasea koja s ponosom stoji od 1880-ih. Ova kuća iz doba zlata ugostila je predsjednika SAD-a, astronauta, nekoliko sudaca, a dvostruka dnevna soba jednom je održala svadbeni prijem Chaseove kćeri! Ova kuća s 9 spavaćih soba i 3,5 kupaonice pažljivo je restaurirana kako bi zadržala mnoge originalne detalje koje jednostavno nije moguće reproducirati danas: ručno rezbareni drveni rad i zapanjujuća ograda koja se uzdiže tri kata kroz središnji hodnik, gipsane krova, kamine, drvene podove širine dasaka, skrivene vrata i visoke stropove. Ured s originalnim zidom ugradnih knjižnica dodaje karakter kući. Nova gurmanska kuhinja s cijelim zidom prozora/vrata preplavljuje prostor s puno prirodne svjetlosti i neometano se nastavlja van na veliku terasu/stražnje dvorište za zabavu u razmjerima koje rijetki mogu zamisliti. Cijela prednja strana kuće ima dugu verandu 's rocking chair' savršenu za uživanje u ljepoti ove povijesne četvrti. Balkon na drugom katu pruža miran kutak za gledanje zapanjujućih pogleda na rijeku, jutarnje izlaze sunca ili možda popodnevnog odmora. Iza kuće pronaći ćete veliko ograđeno dvorište (dovoljno prostora za vrt s cvijećem/ povrćem i bazen), dvokatnu kočiju s beskrajnim mogućnostima, a za praktičnost tu je odvojeni servisni ulaz s ulice Bridge koji vodi izravno do dvorišta. Iako je kuća trenutno postavljena kao obiteljski dom, lako bi se mogla pretvoriti u spektakularni B&B (neka pravila grada bi se mogla primijeniti). Dvostruka dnevna soba, blagovaonica, terasa i dvorište čine savršene zajedničke prostore za takav pothvat. Osim toga, ogromna dvokatna kočija potencijalno bi mogla nuditi male događaje koje sponzorira pansion ili možda čak i lokalna zajednica. Iako obližnji grad Hudson trenutno ima nekoliko takvih pansiona, Catskill nema, pa bi to bilo lijepo dodatak selu. Samo nekoliko minuta hoda niz brdo do glavne ulice Catskilla koja nudi sjajne restorane, pivovare, trgovine, Foreland Art Complex, staru nostalgičnu kino i marinu i javni park uz rijeku Hudson/Catskill Creek. Nekretninu okružuju kuća Beattie-Powers koju posjeduje selo i planinarska staza države NY - obje vode do obale rijeke.

Sited on the most prestigious block in Catskill, NY, with panoramic views of the Hudson River, Rip Van Winkle Bridge and Frederick Church's Olana, you will find Judge Emory Chase's Victorian home that has proudly stood since the 1880s. This gilded age home has entertained a U.S. President, astronaut, several judges and the double parlor once held the wedding reception of Chase's daughter! This 9 bedroom, 3.5 bath home has been meticulously restored to retain many original details that simply cannot be reproduced today: hand carved woodwork and a stunning banister that rises up three floors thru the center hallway, plaster crown moldings, fireplaces, wide plank wood floors, pocket doors and high ceilings. The office with the original wall of built-in bookcases adds to the character of the house. The new gourmet kitchen with an entire wall of windows/doors floods the space with tons of natural light and flows seamlessly outside to a large deck/backyard for entertaining on a scale few can imagine. The entire front of the house has a long 'rocking chair' porch perfect for taking in the beauty of this historic neighborhood. The second floor balcony provides a serene perch for viewing stunning river views, morning sunrises or maybe an afternoon nap. Behind the house you'll find a large fenced in yard (plenty of room for a flower/vegetable garden and pool), a two story carriage house with endless possibilities and for convenience there's a separate service entrance off of Bridge St. that leads directly to the yard. The house while currently set up as a single family home could easily be a spectacular B&B (some town rules would apply). The double parlor, dining room, deck and backyard make perfect common areas for such a venture. In addition, the massive two story carriage house could potentially offer small events sponsored by the inn or maybe even the local community. While the near by city of Hudson currently has several such inns Catskill does not, so it would be a nice addition to the village. Just a short stroll down the hill to Catskill's Main St. that offers amazing restaurants, breweries, shops, Foreland Art Complex, an old nostalgic movie theater, marina and public park right on the Hudson River/Catskill Creek. The property is book-ended by the village owned Beattie-Powers House and a NY State hiking trail - both leading down to the river's shoreline.
