Find this peaceful lakefront escape at the end of its own private driveway in New City, part of the Clarkstown School District. This secluded gem rests on just under an acre of land on Lake DeForest offering endless possibilities. Inside you’ll find an unforgettable open floor plan with an incredible view of the lake. As you enter the bright, spacious living room you will notice the impressive craftsmanship of the custom-built rough cut Doug fir walls from A wood mill in Pennsylvania. Former owner and builder, father and son team, captured their passion for woodwork in this property. Enjoy the spectacular sunrise from one of the many decks and porches that surround the house. Inside, the extra-large master suite welcomes you with its picture window, extra-large walk-in closet, and private bathroom complete with its own bathtub and shower. Within this property, offering three additional bedroom rooms and bedrooms and 3.2 baths, the fourth bedroom acts as its own private apartment which could be easily converted back if you so desired. Downstairs you will find the spacious basement that would be an excellent place to entertain guests with its fully-functioning wet bar and charming air-tight wood stove. Take advantage of this great opportunity to find peace and privacy, while still being only 18 miles from the George Washington Bridge. Locally, you will find a wonderful selection of restaurants to explore and a welcoming town to call your own. Additional Information: Amenities:Storage,ParkingFeatures:2 Car Attached,
