About This Home
Caribbean Oasis Meets Adirondack Getaway! Welcome to this one-of-a-kind, year-round retreat situated on half an acre with an impressive 140 feet of direct frontage on Galway Lake in the Maywood Grove community. This 3-bd, 3-BA, home is filled with character, craftsmanship and unique details that simply cannot be duplicated.
From the moment you enter through the charming Hobbit-style front door, you know this home is something special. You'll love the open floor plan and warm, low-maintenance all-wood interior featuring knotty pine, beautiful stained-glass art, custom tile work and counter tops crafted from trees that once stood on the property. Andersen windows showcase the surrounding natural beauty, while a first-floor sleeping porch adds to the home's relaxed lake-house charm. With its thoughtfully designed sleeping spaces, the home can comfortably accommodate up to 12 guests.
The walk-out lower level offers additional versatility with a studio-style living area, second full kitchen, fireplace, attached gardening room and potting sink.
Outside, three beautifully terraced levels cascade toward the lake, with recent stonework upgrades. Multiple gathering areas include a waterfront deck and dock, fire pit area, platform, boat shed and additional camping areas for overflow guests.
Spend your days kayaking, canoeing, fishing, swimming or simply relaxing near this non-motorized, lake.
The majority of indoor and outdoor furnishings are included, excluding select items of sentimental value, creating a nearly turnkey opportunity for a year-round home, vacation retreat or potential short-term rental. Boat may be negotiable separately. Lake and Maywood Grove dues apply.
This isn't simply a home on the lake--it's a lifestyle, a retreat and a truly unique property Maywood Grove is known for its strong sense of community, adding yet another dimension Lake and Grove dues apply.
This isn't simply a home on the lake. It's a lifestyle, a retreat and a property filled with details and character that would be nearly impossible to recreate. Come experience where Caribbean-inspired relaxation meets the beauty of an Adirondack getaway--right on the shores of Galway Lake.
