770 John Shultis Road, Denver, NY 12421

770 John Shultis Road carries a unique and compelling history that sets it apart. Built in 1950, the property once operated as a restaurant, bar, inn and residence during Roxbury Runs early heyday, serving as a gathering place for locals, second-home owners and visitors. Today, it has been reimagined as an expansive single-family home while retaining one of the most memorable reminders of its past: the original full-scale bar.At approximately 5,000 square feet, the house has the proportions of a true gathering place. The dramatic great room features soaring beamed ceilings, skylights, a substantial stone fireplace, a Vermont Castings wood stove and six sliding glass doors opening to a large wraparound deck with magnificent mountain views. It is an unusually generous space for entertaining, events, long dinners and weekends filled with friends.The former commercial kitchen is now a sophisticated residential kitchen with solid hickory cabinetry, Silestone countertops, a ZLINE propane range with double ovens and hood, a microwave drawer, and abundant workspace and storage.There are six bedrooms and four full baths, including a main-level bedroom suite with direct deck access. Five additional bedrooms are upstairs. An office, substantial mudroom and laundry room complete the floor plan.The residence is set on two adjoining parcels totaling approximately two acres, bordered by a tributary of the Batavia Kill. The flat, usable land includes a large firepit area with Cambridge pavers, landscaped walkways and parking for 12+ vehicles. Across the road, Roxbury Run Country Club offers swimming and tennis with membership. The property is ideally located near the villages of Roxbury and Margaretville, with Belleayre and Plattekill Mountain both within easy reach, along with year-round Catskills recreation.The property invites possibilities beyond the conventional: a substantial private home, multigenerational retreat, bed-and-breakfast, intimate event or gathering space, or a fresh interpretation of its hospitality roots. Recent improvements include 49 Pella windows, new siding and exterior lighting, two commercial-size septic tanks, a new boiler, a full-house propane generator and extensive interior renovations.The history is part of the appeal. The possibilities are entirely up to you.
