LISTING DETAILS
Elka Park life is one where children explore in a safe setting and adults enjoy relaxing. Featured is a 8 Bedroom, 3 Bath turn of the century Victorian styled home in the private community of Elka Park. Edward J. H. Tamsen, President of the Association from 1894 to 1898, built this cottage in 1893. Referred to by many at the time as The Ferryboat, the house is an example of transitional Queen Anne and Colonial Revival architecture. Moorish influences are apparent in the bulbous caps that adorn the ground floor roofs, and in the horseshoe arches that frame the veranda and sleeping porch above. Bavarian overtones are evident in the decorative, jig-sawn balustrades, turned posts and carved braces.
Elka Park is a 1,100 acre private community nestled in the Greene County's northern high peak Catskill Mountains. The park is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Park amenities include clubhouse, restaurant , pool and Tennis courts make this charming home a rare gem!
