Silver Lake Country House Close to Woodstock & Ski Areas | House in Barnard
4 Bedroom House in Barnard
Perched on the edge of pristine Silver Lake, my country home sits on a large rolling lot overlooking the lake enjoyed by many visitors from all corners of the globe.
The house consists of two levels with 3 bedrooms and a bathroom on each level. The upper floor has two bedrooms (queen and full beds), a bathroom with a claw foot bathtub for soaking, and a sitting room with a desk for writing or reading. All the upper level rooms overlook the lake.
On the main floor, you'll find a well-equipped gourmet kitchen, main bedroom with a full bathroom, and a 40-foot sun room for dining while overlooking Silver Lake. The sun room has a work space. The living room, with a large gas fireplace and comfy sectional sofa, is perfect for snuggling up with family and dear friends; playing board games; lingering after a yummy meal; or curling up with a good book.
The house is perfect for gathering with families and friends and also provides many private nooks when you desire space to be solo.
IN THE SUMMER, enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner on the garden patio. Swim, kayak, or sit on the dock with a good book. There are two kayaks, life jackets and lots of space for lounging by the lake.
Our Weber gas grill makes it easy to prepare yummy meals for the whole family, while enjoying the sunset on Silver Lake. End the day relaxing around the fire pit!
