Imagine celebrating each glorious Pennsylvania season from a home that defines idyllic lake life, comprehensively enjoyed from its private beach or sprawling paver patio, the twenty-foot-tall living room windows or the private upper-level sanctuary of the primary bedroom. Approaching from the home’s front, the attention to detail and care are immediately evident in the warm tones and stone accents wisely chosen to harmonize in the lush sylvan surroundings, protected greenbelt area borders the property to one side. The entry porch opens to a lovely foyer, its ceramic tile becoming gleaming hardwoods leading up to the main level’s free-flowing gathering space. The kitchen is open to a gently defined dining room as well as the living room, its wood-beamed, pine tongue and groove cathedral ceilings soaring to a twenty-two-foot peak. Abundant windows overlook the deck, yard, and lake beyond while a wood-burning fireplace offers charm and comfort. A stone fireplace surround with wood accents in trim and railings offer organic touches and, when paired with the floor and ceilings, appropriately hearken the perfect feel of a cozy lakeside cabin. Secluded from the gathering spaces are two well-sized bedrooms, one with a built-in home office workstation and beamed ceiling, the other a beamed, tongue and groove ceiling amplifying its rustic beauty. A main-level full bath is fully updated with a lovely tub-size shower. The main level also boasts a welcome number of closets in the hall and bedrooms. A staircase leads from living room to the upper level where a generous sitting room loft awaits, overlooking the living room, it is the perfect nook from which to enjoy the soaring windows with their views of the glistening lake. A second, updated full bath accompanies two lovely bedrooms, both taking full advantage of their dormer location to continue the wood ceilings to offer an ideal sylvan sleeping experience. The primary bedroom offers four hundred square feet with the gem in this crown being a large window situated in the dormer allowing for perfect views of the lake and wooded hills to the south; imagine waking to this view every morning and curling up in a comfy chair with your coffee as the first beams of sun glitter on the gentle rippling of Lake Hauto. The primary bedroom also offers two closets, one a generous 9x14 walk-in, as well as a 150sf private home office. The home’s lower level offers abundant entertaining space from its five-hundred square foot L-shaped family room set around a two-hundred square foot second kitchen with laundry facility. An enclosed porch offers access to the yard and paired with the lower level’s utility room, storage space for a multitude of outdoor toys and furniture! Access to the home’s backyard amenities is also found in the main-level composite deck. Sliding glass doors from the living room offer access to this area with ample space for an outdoor living room and outdoor dining room! Stairs lead down to the 858 square foot paver patio which offers a bonus in its regulation, concrete shuffleboard court as well as a corner nook with fire pit, a stone wall offering an attractive border with seating potential. The patio gives way to a lawn gently sloping to the home’s private beach to the right, and three-boat-dock to the left with a lovely gathering space, built in benches an ideal location to enjoy the water’s edge. The lake front of this home is the southernmost point of land extending into Lake Hauto, offering an ideal location to take in the complete scope of its riparian beauty. While Lake Hauto Club does allow for powerboating, jet skis, and similar, this lake side oasis sits within the “no-wake zone” of the lake, offering a more tranquil experience. Lake Hauto Club amenities include four public beaches with boat docks and pavilions, tennis and pickleball courts, a community gym and library, and of course the 330-acre lake itself.
