This property is situated in Sullivan County, New York, ten minutes outside of the town of Bethel. Bethel and its surrounding areas are a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. You can explore hiking trails in the Catskill Mountains, go fishing or boating on the nearby lakes, or simply enjoy picnicking and nature walks. The site is adjacent to Bethel Woods Center for the Arts. This renowned venue is situated at the site of the 1969 Woodstock Festival. It hosts concerts, festivals, and exhibitions, celebrating music, art, and culture. Visitors can explore local farms and markets in the region, where they can pick their own fruits, shop for fresh produce, enjoy farm-to-table dining experiences, and discover local artisans' creations.

Our vision for this property involves a two-part development plan. Initially, we will construct a HUTS Cottage ADU to serve as an initial living space and rental unit. This structure optimizes spatial efficiency, creating a unique camping experience in the woods. It will give you a place to spend time on the site. This phase will lay the foundation for the second part of the development, which entails building the HUTS medium bar as the main house in the field located to the west of the site.

In order to facilitate the construction of the Cottage ADU and future Medium Bar and Garage on the lot, there are several crucial steps that need to be undertaken. These steps involve identifying the specific areas designated for construction to achieve the desired experiences on the site. Additionally, determining the suitable size and placement of a shared septic system for both structures, drilling a well for a reliable water supply, establishing a driveway, and ensuring the project is connected to a power source are all essential tasks in preparing the lot for development.

The initial structure we will construct on the site is The Cottage Standard, positioned further back along the wooded road. This compact cabin efficiently encompasses all necessary amenities within a 10x20 space. The main room on the ground floor houses a kitchen and wet room, while the sleeping loft is situated above. Additionally, the convertible couch provides additional sleeping space for up to four guests. A spacious deck extends the living area, offering opportunities for outdoor dining and relaxation. Alongside The Cottage, we will build the HUTS Power Plant, a bar that houses the mechanical systems of the ADU. It includes solar panels, a battery bank, a water heater, and storage for essentials like firewood. As part of the development, we plan to plant fruit trees in the cleared front area, creating a small orchard on-site and allowing ample time for them to grow.

In this phase, our focus will be on constructing the Medium Bar, taking advantage of the existing cleared field by positioning it to face south, optimizing sunlight exposure throughout the day. By this time, the orchard planted in the initial phase would have matured into fruit-bearing trees. We envision this section of the property to have raised beds, creating a distinct area that blends elements of a garden and a farm, offering a delightful contrast to the wooded cabin.
