191 Bullet Hole Road, Mahopac, NY, 10541

Story book Cape-style home with a legal accessory cottage harmoniously sited on just under four verdant acres. This beloved and meticulously maintained home with its beamed and beadboard ceilings, wide-plank tongue and groove walls, and arts and crafts light fixtures evoking warmth and timelessness, is a true sanctuary. Observe the seasons change from the bright, airy sunroom, listen to music in the warm sitting room, share a meal with friends and family in the formal dining room. The living room is anchored by a captivating fieldstone fireplace, rich wood mantel, and custom built-in bookshelves. The kitchen offers an inviting eating alcove for relaxed meals. A full bathroom and laundry / mudroom with a charming Dutch door round out the main floor. Conveniently, the current dining room can serve as a first-floor bedroom. On the second floor, you'll find a primary bedroom large enough for a dedicated sitting area, a third bright bedroom, large closets, and a full bath. The walk-out basement offers abundant light, storage, and work space. Outside, on nearly four acres of mature plantings and trees cultivated by a 14-year member of the Lake Mahopac Garden Club, watch birds and butterflies from the flagstone patio, grow your favorite veggies in the greenhouse, make a wish at the property's original stone water well, or return to yourself on the bridges and paths around the babbling brook. Adjacent to the main house, there is a legal one bedroom, one bathroom accessory cottage offering endless opportunities for your guests, multi-generational living, or income. Please note: the cottage requires complete renovation. In/on the main house, new windows throughout, the addition of mini splits for heating and cooling, a water softener, and a generator and more ensure your creature comforts are met. This well-appointed retreat property's proximity to public transportation, main routes of travel, shopping, and dining make for effortless living.
