About This Home

As of October 2019

Originally two cottages these properties were bought by a renowned Art Dealer in NYC in 1987 and fully remodeled into a family retreat. Both the Main House and the cottage have incredible views of the Lake and are very tastefully finished with a sense of spaciousness and styling detail that make the end result work seamlessly with the landscape and space. The detail continues with the woodwork, fixtures and flooring with radiant heat featured throughout the main house in LR, stone floor in the lower level, LL bath and the Master Bath which also boasts tumbled marble and a steam shower. The Master bedroom is a wall of windows facing the lake with a very spacious private balcony to enjoy coffee with sunrises and quiet time at sunsets while the kids enjoy the entire 3rd level family/game room. Current upgrades include new A/C units for Main House, propane installed in both homes providing for newer gas fireplaces, plus a gas fire pit to enjoy on the lower main deck. The totally modernized cottage is airy and bright with large Dining Room with cozy fireplace, Living Room with a wall of glass and slider to deck facing the Lake, main bedroom with lake views plus a spare den. It is currently being utilized as a very lucrative rental for current owners which can carry over to new owner. Plus all the amenities of the Isle: lighted tennis courts, lighted bocce courts, basketball courts, beach, swimming area with lifeguard during summer season, docks and a great Kids Summer Camp!
