Tucked among the trees of Silver Lake, this rare and charming lakefront cottage is the Great Western Catskills home you've been waiting for. Spanning two adjacent lots, this offering includes a finished 2BR/1BA lake house and a second cottage, which is ready for your vision. The primary residence is bright, inviting, and light-filled thanks to large windows and vaulted ceilings. Wide plank floors throughout the home add warmth and contrast. The sunroom overlooks the deck and provides lots of natural light and picturesque lake views. The open-concept living area connects the two bedrooms, a lofted area, and a modernized kitchen and bathroom. The second residence, being sold as-is, is currently framed as a two-bedroom, 1 bathroom layout. When finished, it can serve as an additional home for friends and family, or be used for short-term/seasonal rental income. Outside, the deck on the primary residence features a staircase leading to the lake, where you have dedicated lake access to launch a canoe or kayak, swim, fish, or simply take in the view. The shed is perfect for storing canoes/kayaks and gear, or used as a creative workspace. Nestled into Silver Lake, a small and beloved lake community, this property is peaceful and private, but not isolated. Silver Lake is just outside the town of Deposit, a historic river town at the confluence of the East and West Branches of the Delaware. The area is known for world-class fly fishing, tubing, antique shops, and a growing number of creative outposts. You're just over 2 hours from NYC and under 30 minutes from Callicoon and Roscoe for restaurants, breweries, and additional outdoor recreation.
