For those seeking a secluded cabin in the woods, this charming 1940s log home offers both privacy and the added benefit of deeded lake rights to Copake Lake.
The main level features an open-concept layout, including a living room, dining area, kitchen, bedroom, and full bath. A thoughtful custom detail--a pull-down kitchen table--enhances both functionality and character.
The walk-out lower level includes an additional room, providing flexible space.
The property has also proven successful as a short-term rental.
Outdoor amenities include a deck, hot tub, perennial gardens, and a landscaped yard suitable for relaxation and recreation.
Copake Lake, often regarded as a hidden gem of Columbia County, spans approximately 425 acres and allows full motorboat use. Nearby, the Copake Country Club and a wide range of regional attractions--skiing, live music, farm-to-table dining, farmers markets, hiking, and zip-lining--offer year-round appeal.
Conveniently located approximately two hours from New York City and equidistant to Hudson, NY and Great Barrington, MA, this property is well-positioned as both a private retreat and an investment opportunity.
We would be pleased to introduce you to this distinctive Copake Lake offering--where every detail contributes to its story.
