Hardyston Twp., NJ 07460 26 Lake Shore Rd W

Open Canceled Sun 13. Lake views, soaring wood ceilings, and walls of glass, this custom salt box on Lake Tamarack is not your average lake house. Step inside and the whole main level opens up under a cathedral wood ceiling and skylights, with window walls pulling the water and treeline right into the room, a hearthstone fireplace with a cast iron wood stove anchoring the space, granite counters finishing the kitchen, and light pouring in from every angle. Out front, a 70 foot deck runs the full length of the home for slow mornings over the lake or long nights with a crowd, and the walk out lower level adds flexible bonus space ready to become a family room, office, or gym. The big stuff is already handled: newer Andersen windows, newer siding, newer appliances, generator hookup, plus a one car garage and shed. Life on Tamarack means a private beach, kayaking, swimming, fishing, and winter skating, minutes to Mountain Creek and Crystal Springs, and one mile to the NYC Park and Ride. Homes with this much character do not come around often out here.
