Step into a historic storybook just 90 minutes from NYC. Enter this grand 164-acre estate complete with your own 25 acre Private Lake through the gated, winding driveway complete with mature foliage and stonework. The stage is set as soon as you approach the garage with its arched doors and ivy wrapped fa ade. Follow the stone path that leads to the main residence where you are greeted with views of the gardens and the spectacular lake. The main residence offers regal stone and woodwork throughout, as well as many historic touches. There is plenty of room to relax with two primary bedroom suites and three guest bedrooms. Go back in time as you sit around the massive stone fireplace in the living room which dates back to the original construction of the estate. A lofted entertainment room has been added to ensure everyone has a place to enjoy. Most of the rooms in the residence have outdoor access to either a stone patio overlooking the lake, or a mahogany, covered porch with stone arches to take in the gardens. Both the indoor and outdoor spaces are built to entertain and there is even a remote-control waterfall across the lake. The tremendous kitchen has modern amenities including a Wolf range, two paneled Sub-Zero refrigerators, wine cooler, built-in ice maker, and a walk-in pantry to keep the home well stocked. Enjoy a meal overlooking the lake in the original dining area, on the lakeside deck, or have a larger gathering in the formal dining room which can accommodate up to 24 people. From the kitchen, a lakeside deck with stone pathway leads to a 3-bedroom historic boathouse. Imagine docking your boat at your very own, private boathouse and relaxing by the outdoor fireplace under the stone portico, with a meal made on the built-in Viking grill. From here continue on an enchanted path that takes you to a one-bedroom cottage; currently being used as a lakeside game room. If you need more room for your guests, there is yet another adorable one-bedroom lakeside cottage. The on-site caretaker keeps this property up to the expected standards and lives in a separate 2-bedroom home with additional storage barn. This property truly feels like a private nature preserve with the feeling of an endless vacation. The lake not only provides spectacular swimming and fishing in the crystal-clear water, but one can also enjoy any type of motorized watercraft they choose. This unique destination must be experienced to be appreciated.
