Inside, the spacious formal dining room is highlighted by a stunning wood accented ceiling that creates warmth and character, making it an ideal space for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings.
The dining room flows effortlessly into the eat-in kitchen, featuring refreshed cabinetry, tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar seating, and a bright breakfast nook. Large windows throughout the home invite natural light inside while framing beautiful views of the gardens and the lake beyond.
The living room offers a comfortable place to relax and is one of the home's true highlights. A charming bay window creates the perfect reading nook while showcasing beautiful views of the lake, bringing the outdoors in throughout the seasons. Additional windows capture views of the thoughtfully landscaped gardens, creating a peaceful backdrop from nearly every angle. The main level continues with a spacious primary suite featuring a beautifully renovated ensuite bath, additional bedrooms, and another full bathroom.
The lower level provides exceptional versatility with its own private entrance, living room, kitchen, bedroom, renovated full bath, and direct access to the expansive new deck overlooking the backyard and junior lake views. Whether used as a legal rental apartment for supplemental income, a private space for extended family, multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or a home office retreat, this level offers endless possibilities.
One of the property's most captivating features is its outdoor setting. Thoughtfully designed gardens, mature landscaping, and peaceful outdoor living spaces create a private sanctuary where every season can be enjoyed. From colorful blooms and visiting wildlife to sparkling lake views, the grounds have been lovingly maintained and provide a sense of serenity rarely found.
Recent improvements include a brand-new deck, removal of the underground oil tank, new septic tank, energy-efficient ductless air conditioning units on both levels, and the addition of a heat pump integrated into the home's HVAC system, significantly reducing oil consumption and improving year-round efficiency.
Residents of Lake Peekskill enjoy access to community amenities, including the community center for private events and gatherings, a playground, sandy beaches, and lake privileges that offer swimming, fishing, and non-motorized boating. For outdoor enthusiasts, the location is second to none. Just minutes from Clarence Fahnestock State Park and nearby access to the Appalachian Trail, residents can enjoy miles of hiking and biking trails, kayaking opportunities, and year-round recreation surrounded by the breathtaking natural beauty of the Hudson Valley.
Enjoy the serenity of this lake community setting while benefiting from excellent commuter convenience, with easy access to Metro-North, the Taconic State Parkway, Route 6, shopping, dining, and everyday amenities, making travel throughout the region and into New York City effortless.
This unique property offers the perfect combination of flexibility, income potential, lake views, beautiful gardens, and a peaceful lifestyle in one of Putnam Valley's lake communities.
