Description

If a house could tell a story, this one would have generations of a family at its center. It would tell of weddings and celebrations, kids returning home and grandparents growing old surrounded by the people they love. This remarkable home has been in the same family for over 60 years. It has grown and changed to support the people living in it. Perched on a hill across from Lake Hodgson with magnificent views, this 2-acre family complex is made up of three distinct buildings.

It would tell of weddings and celebrations, kids returning home and grandparents growing old surrounded by the people they love. This remarkable home has been in the same family for over 60 years. It has grown and changed to support the people living in it. Perched on a hill across from Lake Hodgson with magnificent views, this 2-acre family complex is made up of three distinct buildings. The main home was built in 1901 and features 5 bedrooms and two full bathrooms. A separate building houses a one-bedroom guest house that is perfect for generational living with a spectacular custom library above. The third building consists of a spacious art studio on top and a heated workshop or extra garage below. The previous owner of this home was an accomplished woodworker and evidence of his skill and care is scattered throughout the home. Be sure to take a moment to appreciate the lake view as you enter through the two-story enclosed front porch. This vista of the lake is truly unmatched and every window at the front of the house has access to it. It is framed like a painting in the bright family room, surrounded by custom woodwork and thoughtful built-ins. Catch a glimpse of it from the formal dining room that features gleaming hardwoods and coffered ceilings. You will feel like you are on a ship when you stand in the large second story bedroom (formerly an office) because all you see is the lake. The back yard is private and stone paths lead to the other two buildings, two-car garage and shed. Plenty of room for campfires in the firepit and working in the garden back here. Open the door to the library from the second story deck and imagine yourself settling in with a book in this beautiful and quiet space while looking at the lake. There is even a small half bath in the library. Come see if this wonderful home is the next setting for YOUR story. I am sure you will like what you find.
