Arrive at The Lake House and a profound sense of peace immediately washes over you. Situated on a quiet, exclusive street along the shores of Lake Washinee in Salisbury , this contemporary estate offers a truly private retreat. With 300 feet (+/-)of pristine water frontage, the property looks out over the quiet lake to the Taconic Range, offering spectacular, western-facing sunset views. It is a setting so serene that graceful swans are frequently seen gliding across the water, while the neighborhood itself remains incredibly peaceful, disturbed only by the occasional resident walking their dog. Inside, a dramatic entrance welcomes you into a breathtaking foyer that flows into an awe-inspiring living room. Built in 2003, the home's soaring post-and-beam architecture beautifully weaves the natural outside world into the interior. Natural light streams through an expansive wall of glass, illuminating the hardwood floors and built-in window seats. The perfect spot to settle in with a book on an autumn afternoon. A stone woodburning fireplace anchors the space, promising cozy winter evenings. This spectacular room transitions seamlessly into a formal dining room with high ceilings, and an expansive kitchen designed to maximize the sweeping views of the lake and mountain range. The main floor was thoughtfully designed to capture lake views from almost every room.
