THE SPACE
Fully furnished 2 bedroom lakefront cottage (850 Square Feet) with rolling private lawn and private dock on Silverlake in Rhinebeck. Panoramic living room w sliding glass doors lead to wrap around deck surrounded by lake views and yard, breakfast nook, fully stocked kitchen, spacious main bedroom, and a second bedroom set up as an office with a couch that folds out to a full. Newly renovated bathroom and shower.

This is a secluded cottage at the end of a quiet road, with private cul de sac overlooking a rolling lawn to your dock. Ideal for artists, or people seeking beauty and solitude. Please note this is a super low key, family neighborhood. The property is pristine, but not bougie or fancy. If you are looking for architectural splendor, this is probably not your home.

Here, the lake is the star, as the views are constant all season and all day and night. If you love indoor/outdoor life, wrap around decks, looking for a place to study, remote work, write music, or a book. This place is for you. Think Topanga Canyon in Los Angeles. Note the lake is over 200 acres, and no motors are allowed. It is ideal for swimming and kayaking. Two kayaks come with the house.

Landscaped lawn leads to your own dock. Warm water swimming June - September, year round kayaking and fishing, except when the lake freezes, then just great ice skating. The lake is about 200 acres in size, with residents-only access (no public crowds) and no gas motors allowed.

As quiet as this property is it is minutes from Rhinebeck Village, Bard college/Tivoli, Culinary Institute, Omega Institute, Slow Fox Farm, Golden Russet, tons of local farms, distilleries, horse farms, spas, and great places for martinis. (This is in the Rhinebeck School district).

The house has central heat and AC, full kitchen, dishwasher, washer/dryer, full house back up generator and a large storage shed.
