First time on the market, "The Fischer House" is a lakefront property of unobtrusive brilliance. It was designed by renowned architect, Norman Jaffe to be a weekend retreat immersed in natural beauty with a sense of life among the treetops. Tucked into a wooded hillside and overlooking Green Pond, this enchanting home blends rustic warmth with contemporary style. Entry to the residence via a wooden bridge introduces the unique environment within. Nature's calming presence is abundant. Cypress walls & vaulted ceilings, oak floors, & interior balconies enhance the varied living spaces. Expansive windows & skylights flood the home with natural light & frame uninterrupted views of the surrounding trees and lake. The kitchen is sleek & functional; the living & dining areas are open & inviting. Four bedrooms, plus a sleeping loft, provide room for everyone. The primary suite offers its own bath & adjoining meditation/exercise room. Each of the other 3 bedrooms has a private sink & shares a full bath w/an adjoining sauna. Whether resting or recharging, every room is a peaceful retreat in harmony with its natural surroundings. The outdoor living areas include a shower cabana, private dock, & beautiful lake views from multiple decks; a smaller private one off the upper level and another more spacious one cantilevered over natural rock outcroppings. Green Pond is known for being one of the cleanest lakes in the region. Its spring fed waters are ideal for swimming & non-motorized craft. Also included is a large detached garage with upper bonus room, and a separate 1.2 acre lot next door. Parcel ID 68-56. Video surveillance in place.
