You quickly realize how magical this place is - a private oasis complete with croquet lawn and gardens overlooking the brook and embraced by woodlands. Beautiful stone steps and mature perennials invite you to the covered porch and main entry. Inside, you are warmly greeted by the cheerful, open floor plan, inviting you to explore. Once a charming one-room fishing cottage in the 1930's, it has awakened and grown to become a single-level contemporary year-round paradise. An unusual blend of old and new, it boasts gleaming hardwood floors in BR and DR areas, ceramic and marble tile in kitchen and baths and new BERBER carpet in the sun-filled 20 foot living room. Minutes to all the amenities of town, yet just a short walk to superb trails for hiking, snowshoeing or x-country skiing. Sunset Lake is just up the road - take a kayak or picnic and watch the loons. One owner is a Licensed Real Estate Broker.
