SOLD Adorable Lakeside Cottage | Lovely Gardens | Webster

Description of Property at

633 Lake Road

This week we are presenting an adorable lakeside cottage in the town of Webster at 633 Lake Road. This late 19th century former farmhouse rests gently on a lush .72 acre garden lot within easy walking distance to miles of sensitively developed wood?and? trails. The current owner, an artist and poet, transformed this property ?over many years ?from an overgrown, unkempt, dark ?house with tiny chopped up rooms & low ceilings into a beautiful wide open, cheerful, creative ?home teeming with life! There are very few interior walls! Oak hardwood floors stretch across most of the first and second floors. Every room is bathed daily in natural light! There is a huge eat-in country kitchen with new laminate flooring. As if the kitchen weren't already large enough it shares an open threshold with a perfectly charming sitting room that both looks out and walks out to the back yard and garden. The ceiling has been vaulted to make the space feel even more beautiful and to pull in as much extra light as possible. Your plants will love daily southern exposure. Most of the rest of the first floor has been completely opened up into one very large space that flows effortlessly. Where once there were several small, dark areas now there is one glorious light-filled room. There's also a very convenient full bathroom on the first floor. Although the front entry is no longer in use it has been beautifully restored! Upstairs you'll find the private space you've been dreaming of for years! It's not an old-fashioned boring ?series of ?bedroom?s off of a hallway?. ?Instead t?he entire second floor has been converted into a massive suite that flexes as a live/work space. The new cathedral ceiling and exposed natural wood make this room feel like you're in a loft. Sure, you can convert this home back into a more conventional configuration. The great news is you'll be starting with a clean palette. Use your imagination to reconfigure the rooms just the way you want them. Would you like another enclosed bedroom? Two more bedrooms? Rather have a dining room rather than a great room? Prefer a den? Sure! Go for it! It's all there for you. The yard is filled with flowers and other plantings. It's neither formal nor fussy. It's one more area to express your creative vision. It's also bigger than it may seem when you first pull in. There's a large section of yard to the right of the outbuilding (formerly a garage). The out building/garage has been converted into an art studio workshop and storage building. It features heat, electricity and running water! The basic plumbing for a bathroom ?is present and ?ready to go! Very handy if you're working ?out there ?on a project?t out there and don't the distraction of going back to the house for simple necessities.????? You can literally walk about 100 yards? from this home? to the Gosnell Big Wood Preserve Walking Trails then onward to Whiting Road Nature Preserve and ?then to ?Webster Park! OMG! The asking price is $174,900
