If you appreciate old world craftsmanship, like arched doorways, solid wood hand-painted doors, copper gutters, and a unique roll-top roof, this Gingerbread house is for you. You are welcomed to his home by a scalloped stone wall with stone flower boxes, stone pavers, and a fish pond. Enjoy the great room with a cathedral ceiling with wooden beams from a ship, a six foot wide field stone fireplace, original ironwork archways over the French doors, and iron wall scones. Enjoy the sunlight streaming in from 8 French doors in the sunroom with wood floors, iron wall scones and ceiling lights that shine like a sunburst. The large master bedroom has a bay window with French doors that open up to a beautiful view of the lake. The bathroom has original subway tile with a claw foot tub, fixtures and a big linen closet. The 2nd and 3rd bedrooms on the main level also have beautiful views of the lake. The big galley kitchen is perfectly situated between the large formal dining room, cozy breakfast nook, and back deck with a great view of the lake. Entertain your guests in the pinewood billiards room/bar in the basement that was rumored to be a speakeasy during prohibition times. Legend has it that 1930's actress Dorothy Lamour lived in this house and Don Amici lived across the street in a similar house built by the same builders. Have a picnic under the big oak tree in the front yard as you enjoy the English garden or play tennis on your private tennis court. If you like fishing, boating, or swimming, Wooster Lake is a private, 100 acre, spring-fed, glacier-made lake stocked with fish. Launch your boat from the 32 foot pier next to the adjacent community park. Bird lovers will enjoy watching ducks, geese, swans and American Great pelicans as they stop by our lake during migration. Watch the sun rise across the lake while sitting in your sunroom. This is the perfect paradise to call home.
