SOLD - Scenic Lakefront with Private Island Near Town and Schools
|
This is the most fabulous lakefront property for living and entertaining. There is a Japanese maple in full color on the scenic island in the lake and a pink dogwood, a pear tree and a cherry tree to celebrate the Spring with color around a birdbath while at water's edge there is a charming statue on a rock. A broad circular driveway arrives at the inviting front door with leaded glass sidelights only several steps up from the parking area. From the entrance hall there is an archway to the wonderful front-to-back living room with a fireplace in a panelled wall, large south-facing windows to the terrace and to the view, as well as windows on the driveway side. The dining room is formal with views of the lake and a glass door to the expansive flagstone terrace with its graceful curved dry stone wall designed by a noted landscape architect. The family room/
kitchen is a welcoming space with south-facing views, a glass door to the terrace, a center island, a bay window over the sink and a back hall to the mudroom area which is entered from outside under a porch, ideal for inclement weather, and the two-car garage has ample built-in storage. The master bedroom faces south to the lake with two exposures, a wall of closets and a lovely bathroom with attractive glass tile walls. There are two additional bedrooms, each with a bathroom, on the main floor. Upstairs above the garage is a private suite with a large sitting room or bedroom, a wet bar and a full bathroom, ideal for many uses including a home office, a guest suite, a staff suite or a possible accessory apartment. This is the hard-to-find smaller home on one floor in sparkling condition in a super convenient location with walking and bicycling from the front door on quiet side streets - which also means this house is served by all public utilities including sewer.
