Waterfront nature lover's dream house on a lake with water falling over dam year round. Not in Montana, it is exactly one hour from NYC city limit on TSP, 15 minutes from Poughkeepsie Metro North station and one mile from village stores and primary school. It is located on a residential half a mile dead end loop that is nice for an evening stroll, safe for children to play, and quiet, except for chatter of water rushing over dam at end of lake. The house is eight feet above lake level, and thus not in flood zone, as determined by FEMA. The house is bigger than it looks from the street with two levels of 1416 square feet each. The lower level has a 405 square feet master bedroom with walk-in closet and bathroom, and a living/recreation room of 650 square feet with amenities and Anderson doors opening on patio overlooking lake. The upper level has solid oak parquet floors, three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a music room with pink granite fireplace and bow window, a full size formal dining room and a 13 by 15 feet kitchen. The kitchen opens to a 448 square feet deck with 120 square feet covered for a secluded peaceful breakfast or lunch close to nature in any weather. Over the past six year, improvements with additions, repairs and new purchases were performed at a total estimated cost of over $120,000. The result is a highly efficient (see Central Hudson comparison), safe and low cost maintenance house with solar panels, heat Trex deck, expanded lights, pumps and radon exhaust. Major appliances will be left with house as well as a baby grand piano. A home buyer's warranty is offered at no charge. More importantly, our improvements restored to the house its old world charm with a baby grand piano, intercom in all rooms and the unique beauty of a seclude lake side park-like setting. Come see ducks, geese, turtles and an occasional heron on our lake. Listen to robins, phoebes, cardinals and noisy blue-jays. In the summer observe turtles laying eggs behind house, and marvel at hummingbirds feeding on petunias in front of you while you have breakfast on the deck. There are no symptoms of covid-19 in our household. Nevertheless, please wear face mask and gloves for your protection if you come to visit.
