Overview

Fabulous Weekend Getaway or Year-Round Retreat! Step into the charm and character of this Adirondack-style home, perfectly situated near Lake Mahopac with coveted lake rights and seasonal lake views. The wood and stone exterior sets the tone for the warm, inviting interior, brimming with unique details. The cozy brick-walled kitchen features a farmhouse sink and an exposed beamed ceiling, opening to a bright breakfast/dining room accented by an interior stone wall. Tin ceilings add character in both bathrooms and the first-floor hallway. The oversized living room is a showstopper, showcasing a soaring beamed cathedral ceiling, original pine wide-plank wood floors, and a stunning stone fireplace with a wood-burning insert—ideal for gathering on chilly evenings. The serene primary suite features an oversized bay window that extends your living space into the surrounding landscape, along with a private deck where you can enjoy your morning coffee in peaceful surroundings. A first-floor bedroom includes an electric fireplace that also provides heat, adding comfort and flexibility. The tastefully updated bathroom boasts elegant glass subway tile, and first-floor laundry enhances everyday convenience. Additional living space includes a finished loft plus attic storage, offering versatility for work, guests, or recreation. Outside, the artistry continues with tiered landscaping, stone patios, two ponds, and a cozy outdoor fireplace. The multi-tiered yard is a gardener’s dream, filled with vibrant perennials, a vegetable garden, and fruit trees—creating a picturesque backdrop for relaxation or entertaining. The enclosed front porch with an attached deck provides a perfect vantage point to enjoy stunning lake views, and a second enclosed porch adds even more space to unwind. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the lifestyle this location offers, with hiking trails within walking distance to Volz Park and direct access nearby to the Empire State Trail—an expansive 750-mile route stretching from Manhattan to Canada, ideal for walking and biking. Practical updates include a newer 4-bedroom septic system (2020), oil tank (2020), garage doors, freshly paved driveway, and a new hot water heater (Dec. 2025). The home has been thoughtfully refreshed with new paint and refinished hardwood floors, offering a move-in-ready experience. Storage and workspace abound with a 3½-car garage (1 attached, plus a 2½-car detached garage with workbench and additional storage). Whether you're looking for a peaceful weekend escape or a full-time residence, this home offers it all. Enjoy the convenience of walking into town or taking a leisurely stroll to the lake. Don’t miss this opportunity to own a slice of Adirondack-inspired paradise!
