About this property
Historic Hideaway with Lake Access!
Escape from the busy day-to-day at this charming historic hideaway by the lake. The home, circa 1760s, boasts all the storybook charm you could dream of, combined with a functional and tasteful modern touch. Enjoy a fire in the original fireplace, a glass of wine on the oversized patio, a quick walk to the lake for a swim or kayak adventure (just 300 feet away) or explore the area's many attractions and food spots. A true country retreat awaits.
