Description
This sweet 1930's cottage sits overlooking a historic textile mill with sounds of the reservoir heard throughout the house. The property is large and private-- wander up a pathway through the garden, past the maple trees to find Summit Lake, where one can go paddle a canoe or fish. You'll find a raspberry patch, fruit trees, perennial gardens, stone pathways and a patio for enjoying al fresco dinners. The 3BD 2BA home underwent a full renovation completed in 2022 by esteemed CB Design / Build, when all of the systems were upgraded such as new plumbing and electric, mechanicals, a new roof, copper gutters, the list goes on. A new dine-in kitchen was installed with burnt maple countertops, a farmhouse sink and a Wolf range, it anchors this main living space where you'll find a wood burning stove with a comfy seating area, two bedrooms, one being used as a WFH office, and a bath tucked off to the side. On the upper level the ceilings are vaulted and a wall of windows offers beautiful views of the neighboring historic mill. A loft sleeping area accessed by a library ladder, is perched above the second floor living space, which converts into a home theater. A full bath with a soaking tub completes the second floor. Sliding glass doors open onto the porch and overlook the gardens and the lake beyond.A short walk takes you into the village where you'll find restaurants, a food coop, post office, and a library. And a short drive brings you to the High Falls conservation area, skiing at Catamount, Hawthorne Valley Farm Store and Waldorf School, Hudson & Amtrak. And once you become a villager, you get private access to a pristine secret lake, less than 10 min away. Just 2.5h to NYC, you are a world away.
