Charming lake-style retreat just moments from Lake Hopatcong, New Jersey's largest lake with 39 miles of shoreline. Nestled on a spacious, tree-lined lot, this unique 3-bedroom ranch offers warmth, character, and year-round enjoyment in a peaceful natural setting. Inside, vaulted tongue-and-groove wood ceilings create a cozy lodge-like atmosphere, complemented by natural log accents and a striking stone-surround wood-burning stove. The bright kitchen features soaring ceilings, skylights, a butcher block island, and an adjoining dining area with sliding doors leading to the backyard. The sun-filled primary bedroom offers vaulted ceilings, skylights, oversized windows, and a loft for additional storage. The bathroom features a walk-in shower, tile finishes, and a relaxing sunken tub. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a wrap-around porch, flagstone patio with outdoor fireplace, brick BBQ grill, custom stone walkway, firepit area, mature landscaping, storage shed, one-car garage, and expansive yard surrounded by nature. A seasonal waterfall can be enjoyed from the backyard during periods of rainfall. The property is served by a private well with naturally filtered water and is conveniently located near boating, marinas, waterfront dining, and recreational activities. Whether you're seeking a primary residence, weekend getaway, or investment opportunity, this distinctive Lake Hopatcong area home offers exceptional charm and versatility.
