Penn Badgley’s Catskills Home Lists for $1.7 Million

Mar 31, 2023

As Penn Badgley's hit Netflix show You appears to angle for a final-season return to its original New York setting, the actor is parting ways with his country home hideaway approximately two hours north of the city. The Gossip Girl star's four-bedroom, four-bathroom residence offers considerably more privacy, and likely a more relaxed pace of life, for any A-list prospective buyers looking to put a bit of distance between themselves and the big city. James Amburn and Angelia Ferguson of Four Seasons Sotheby's International Realty hold the listing.

Natural wood touches like hand-hewn beams and wide-plank flooring give the interiors of the Catskills abode an organic, outdoorsy atmosphere. Built in 2013, the 3,400-square-foot home boasts miles of country views from every room. The living area, featuring a fieldstone fireplace, is surrounded on three sides by screened-in porches and a bluestone patio.

The home's kitchen.

The kitchen is teeming with country charm: across from its butcher block island and classic farm sink is a 36-inch gas range and imported woodstove, ideal for a skilled home chef. Cream colored cabinetry and three bell-shaped pendant lights contrast with dark soapstone countertops to brighten the space. Upstairs, the primary bedroom boasts a walk-in closet and an ensuite with a clawfoot tub and double vanities.

The home's screened-in porches.

While its indoor amenities abound, its natural surroundings are among the property's most attractive attributes. Situated near the picturesque Ashokan Reservoir, the dwelling is walking distance from a number of hiking trails and only half an hour from the slopes of popular skiing mountains. Though it was not finished in time for Badgley's residency in the space, plans for an in-ground saline pool are underway.

The home also hosts two laundry rooms, a mudroom with radiant floors, solar panels, an exercise room, and a library—a feature Joe Goldberg would certainly appreciate.
