Great relaxing getaway! Stay at summer home of boxing legend James J Braddock Family friendly farmhouse in North Branch, NY, located within short travel distance to some of the Catskill's Sullivan County's best attractions. Antiquing, farm markets, boating and fishing on the Delaware, dining, breweries, distilleries, and music...Callicoon, Roscoe, Jeffersonville, Bethel Woods and Woodstock are all within 30 minutes drive.It is also a chance to enjoy the country summer home of American boxing legend James J. Braddock aka the "Cinderella Man". During the 1930s the Sullivan County NY area was a training location for area boxers. Braddock liked the area and built this home in the 1940s after winning the World Heavyweight Championship in 1935. The Braddocks spent summers in North Branch for many years and family still continues to visit the house regularly. Photos of Braddock's boxing career and family are found throughout the house.Located on over 2 acres with a brook flowing through the backyard, this house provides the perfect place for a getaway. Wifi is provided, but it's great to go off-the-grid and enjoy relaxing in the quiet beauty of the country. Clear night skies allow for amazing stargazing. Roast some marshmallows over the firepit and enjoy listening to the crickets and brook babbling. Take a step back in time to enjoy the circa 1940s house's 5 bedrooms (sleeps 9 people) and 2 bathrooms (one with shower/tub) with many original furnishings providing clean and comfortable rustic charm. Kitchen includes coffee maker, toaster, toaster oven, microwave, stove top (no oven) and all pots, pans, utensils, etc. Gas grill outside for BBQs.
