node-sass dependency - 'node' is not recognized as an internal [...]

I get this error after adding "node-sass": "^4.12.0" to my package.json and running npmInstall.

I really want to do my build without having to install a node on my system, so locally installing node and adding it to the PATH is not a good solution for me (Regardless, I already tried it with a local installation and it works like expected that way)

I use the id ("com.moowork.node") version "1.3.1" plugin in my gradle file, with following configuration

node {
version = "10.16.0"
download = true
}

It worked pretty well so far with things like "typescript": "^3.5.1", "spectrum-colorpicker": "^1.8.0", "eslint": "^5.16.0", ... so there seems to be something wrong with node-sass

Someone has experienced something familiar?
