Serene lakefront setting, stunning Shawangunk Ridge views, wooded privacy, superb construction quality, energy efficiency, timeless design, and a fabulous location just steps from the Mohonk Preserve and four miles from the lively village of New Paltz. Coming home is always special here, either past the waterfall or over the stream to this handsome cypress-sided refuge. Enjoy the easy-maintenance natural landscaping and incredible views from the patio, decks, and built-in stone and wood seating. Inside, notice the white oak floors, trim and custom doors, two-story stone fireplace, 25-foot living room ceilings, wall of windows facing the lake, and too many details to mention. (Literally! Ask for a list.) The wide open living area is grand but inviting, and the kitchen is a cook’s dream and lovely to look at in maple, stainless steel and black granite. The main floor also offers a bedroom or office, full bath with river stone shower, and black walnut library. The second floor features the master suite, two more bedrooms, full bath, laundry room and reading nook. Add to all that a beautiful ground floor apartment--great for visitors, extended family, caretaker, or legal rental--featuring another stone fireplace, custom kitchen, two bedrooms, and lake views. The original 1987 home was entirely rebuilt in 2007 with meticulous attention to quality and details, from the hand-selected local stone to the efficient hydro-air heating system. So come, bring your paddle board, kayak, swim suit and hiking boots, and start enjoying this amazing setting and the area’s unparalleled natural beauty, outdoor recreation opportunities and charming country towns.
