Tucked onto a generous double corner lot in the heart of Lake Carmel, this beautifully refreshed 1930 Cape Cod delivers far more than its charming exterior suggests. With a flexible, room-filled layout, timeless character details, and access to the Lake Carmel beaches, this is the rare offering that checks every box for buyers craving lifestyle, space, and move-in-ready ease.
Step inside through the sweet covered foyer and into a sun-filled living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and warmed by exposed beamed ceilings - a nod to the home's original character that pairs beautifully with the freshly refinished hardwood floors flowing throughout. A crisp coat of new paint brightens every room, while ceiling fans add comfort year-round.
The walk-through kitchen has been thoughtfully refreshed with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and gas cooking, opening to a dedicated dining area perfect for everything from weeknight dinners to holiday gatherings. Just off the main living space, a generous bedroom room offers exceptional sunlight. A convenient half bath rounds out the main level.
Upstairs, you'll find a spacious primary bedroom and a beautifully updated full bath featuring fresh white subway tile that feels both classic and current. The standout surprise? A massive 17' x 19' bonus room that easily lives as a third bedroom, home office, creative studio, or whatever your lifestyle calls for - giving this home the functionality of a 3-bedroom layout.
Downstairs, the full basement provides washer/dryer hookups and abundant storage. Outside, enjoy the seasons from your deck, take advantage of the expansive double corner lot for gardening and gatherings, and tuck bikes, kayaks, or lake gear into the garage - the perfect spot for all your seasonal and outdoor essentials.
And then there's the lifestyle. As part of the Lake Carmel Beach District, you'll enjoy access to private community beaches, swimming, fishing, paddling, and year-round events that make this lakeside community feel like a permanent staycation. With Metro-North access roughly 11 miles away and Carmel schools serving the home, the location delivers both retreat and connection.
Refreshed inside and out, rich with original character, and ideally located - 49 Longfellow Drive is the lake-life lifestyle, ready to call home. Showings begin Sat May 2nd- book your tour today!
