Amidst the towering hardwoods of York Lake Estates, where privacy meets pristine natural beauty, Lakehaven offers an extraordinary opportunity to own a legacy lakefront retreat unlike any other. Perfectly sited on nearly six secluded acres with 200 feet of frontage on a crystal-clear, spring-fed lake, this thoughtfully designed Adirondack-style residence exemplifies the marriage of fine craftsmanship (built by a local master builder), modern amenities, and perfect entertainment spaces—all within two hours of Manhattan. Built with cedar shake siding and bespoke architectural detailing, the home’s warm, organic palette is perfectly attuned to its forested lakeside setting. Inside, rustic sophistication prevails. Vaulted ceilings, hand-selected pine flooring, and skylights draw in the natural light, while a commanding wood-burning fireplace with handcrafted stone surround serves as the heart of the home. The chef’s kitchen and adjoining butler’s pantry are equally impressive, featuring handmade hickory cabinetry, soapstone countertops, mother-of-pearl tilework, and premium appliances—all thoughtfully designed for both daily living and effortless hosting. The residence offers two bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, with a fully finished lower level that easily adapts to additional guest quarters, work-from-home space, or a media space. Every room is infused with a sense of warmth, craftsmanship, and connection to the outdoors. Beyond the interiors, Lakehaven unfolds into a series of artfully composed outdoor living spaces. Newly constructed cedar decking (2024) wraps the home and is adjacent to a screened-in porch—perfect for quiet mornings or candlelit evenings. Professionally designed garden rooms blend seamlessly with the surrounding old-growth hardwoods, while pathways meander through Italianate gardens, a raised and fenced vegetable and herb garden, and a lakeside gazebo offering tranquil moments by the water’s edge. Multiple outdoor lounges, including a rare vintage Strandkorb (German for beach basket), invite lingering afternoons lakeside. This fully appointed estate is offered with an impressive collection of watercraft: a vintage, fully restored 1965 turquoise SeaCraft, a six-seater pontoon boat, two-seater kayak, and a vintage golf cart—all ready to explore your private lakeside domain. York Lake, reserved exclusively for electric motorcraft, offers glass-calm waters ideal for swimming, paddling, and quiet angling. Stocked with bass, pickerel, perch, and sunfish, it is a sanctuary for both leisure and sport. Just minutes away, the Delaware River—renowned for its world-class trout fishing—extends the outdoor experience to yet another dimension. Two thoughtfully designed outbuildings further enhance the estate: a newly constructed garage providing secure storage for vehicles and outdoor equipment, and a detached studio, ideal for a private office, artist's retreat, or flexible creative space—all designed to preserve the estate’s sense of serenity and calm.”
