On to the Next. This 2 BR (plus bonus room), 1 BA home on .4 acre was the family gathering place for decades -- be it summer, fall, winter or spring -- fond memories abound. There are two separate tax map parcels and this on a corner lot, so you have space from adjoining neighbors. Take a deep breath - you're in the country.A block off the lake puts you in a quieter location and a short distance to your lakeside deck and dock, that has been there for decades (note that you have deeded lake rights).If you haven's discovered Copake Lake yet, you've come upon one of the hidden gems of Columbia County, NY. This ~425 acre lake allows motor boats, so there is water skiing, tubing, fishing, swimming . . . There are two marinas -- Copake Lake Boat & Ski and Mickey's Marina. Both with a different flavor (pun intended). Copake Country Club is also here, which is a famous 18-hole public golf course, together with the farm-to-table Greens Restaurant.We are equal distance between Hudson, NY and Great Barrington MA. Catamount Adventure Park/Ski Area/Zip Line is about 15 minutes away. Hiking, biking, farmer's markets, concerts, restaurants, antiquing and more. Approximately 2 hours from NYC and 2.5 hours from Boston. MetroNorth and Amtrack are convenient, as is the Taconic State Parkway.Maybe you will be the next to enjoy this home.
