The LAKE HOUSE. A c.1905 cedar shingle clad, 2- story farmhouse overlooking an astounding 10-ACRE LAKE fed by seven natural springs set on 275 acres. The 3 bed, 2 bath home offers open concept living and dining rooms. A sun room gives way to an oversized deck with a vantage point to appreciate the lake, two large docks and bucolic surroundings. A c.1825 equestrian barn, with a complete renovation in the mid-1990’s, offers 8 - 12 foot by 12 foot horse stalls and a foaling stall constructed with Southern yellow pine. Additionally, the tack and wash rooms feature hot water, heat and electricity. The barn leads to 11 acres of quality three rail wood fencing enclosing lush pastures with a run-in shed. Miles of hiking/horse riding trails lead to 55+ acres of open pastures on top of the mountain with spectacular views. A free-standing garage is adjacent to the home and two additional fields (10 ac.) are located off of E. Handsome Brook Road. The LAKE is an amazing focal point visible from all areas surrounding the home. Delhi Central School District and minutes to the village of Franklin offering boutique shops and restaurants.
