What's around 16 Deforest Rd

About this property

There is a pleasing flow between spaces so upon entering the foyer, with its towering ceiling, your are impelled forward into the spacious living room, where the space feels airy but more intimate. There is a fireplace (gas), room enough for a baby grand piano, and a view that leads all the way down to the water. The large island/breakfast bar in the chef's kitchen is just beyond, because cooking and entertaining are so intertwined for these owners. They've added all the bells and whistles (pot-filler; large and well-lit pantry; lots of cherry cabinetry; 6-burner Viking stove; SubZero refrigerator and Thermador double wall ovens). Once the meal is ready, the formal dining room, with barrel-vaulted ceiling, can host a good-sized crew. Down the hall, past the quite wonderful powder room, is the master suite. There is a luxurious bathroom with 2 sinks/vanities, a deep Jacuzzi tub, and a glass-enclosed shower/steam shower. All fixtures in the house are Kohler. The bedroom easily accommodates a king bed, and French doors open onto the wraparound deck, which overlooks an impossibly green lawn, with tastefully landscaped details, and which stretches to a tall stand of trees by the water's edge. Nip down the steps from the deck and enjoy the outdoor shower, if you like! There is also a well-appointed laundry room conveniently located near the mud room by the door into the two-car garage. Follow those gorgeous cherry wood floors (toasty from radiant heat) downstairs, and find yourself in a bright and beautifully-appointed "wing" where any guests or family members would be thrilled to stay. The two bedrooms include their own seating areas, and are en suite with tiled bathrooms that feature soaking tub and glass-enclosed shower. Between the two bedrooms is a large lounge, with all three rooms enjoying exterior access. A set of double doors in the lounge opens to a space that the current owner uses as an exercise room: throw the doors open and watch TV while you do your reps. And off to the side, a kitchenette provides guests with flexibility, which is especially handy if there are small children. There is also an immaculate utility room and a wine cellar. Now to the lake: Pleasure Lake is a crystal clear, 200 acre reservoir that offers fishing, swimming and boating (including motor boating). The lake itself is owned by the members of the Fallsburg Fishing & Boating Club, and the shoreline, which is also largely owned by the club, provides the only access to the water. This shoreline has been divided into lots that have a separate value, and which "sell" (in fact it's technically a lease) to club members. The value of this property's shorefront lot has been rolled into the price for the entire purchase. Further details available upon request. From the grassy shore extends a wonderful dock that provides easy entry to boats and kayaks, or to the water in general. From this part of the lake the nearby houses are largely screened from the water, and the idyllic views preserved.
