About This Home

Serenity and Charm built within the storied walls of this Queen Anne style home adorned with shake shingle exterior, overlooking natures wooded hills and the most perfect lake. The charm of two staircases and cute nook spaces beneath the stairs brings a smile within. Walk in to the most organized coat room and hideaway for all of your "things"..Then..Experience the "heart" of this home..the open design of the dining room with enormous windows with priceless views. The kitchen has a walk in pantry, enormous "hang out" island and so much space for cooking, baking and gatherings.. This home has been gutted, renovated and brought up to perfection. Just waiting for your design eye! The main living room has the most magical oversized stone fireplace you could ever imagine, and a screened in porch for those lazy afternoons sipping your lemonade. On the other side of the home is a sweet family room with views, perfect for puzzles, card games and just hanging. Up the back staircase is the primary suite and getaway living space . From your bed you can look out over the top of the trees and view of the lake. Down the hall are the secondary bedrooms and bathrooms which will ease your mind and gift you much privacy for all of your guests, . The yard has a fenced in garden and a wood shed , plus the original tiny garage which is "as is" but everso quaint for storage. A stones throw away is the lake with a long dock to sit on and splash your feet in the lake, plus, a place for your kayak. THAT vision and moment..well deserved. There are clay tennis courts down the road, and an informal nine hole golf course, plus main lake beach area for all. This private club has generational heritage and been hiding in these woods of Forestburgh since 1889. There are thousands of acres owned by the club and are preserved to retain our precious nature. There is an initiation fee and the annual dues includes the maintenance of roads and gifts you all the club offers. Call for your private tour and rare offering to be a part of these historic woods and memories.
