Groovy Lake House

1

Welcome to the Groovy Lake House. Step inside our time capsule home built in 1974 with some fresh mid-century modern updates. The house is situated on 8-acres next to Lake Champlain and just a few miles from the Champlain Bridge leading into New York and the Adirondacks. Enjoy year-around fun with swimming, sight-seeing, hiking, leaf-peeping, bird watching, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, sledding, stargazing, pie-eating, and relaxing. Stay and take it easy. This very spacious house has no shortage of places to lounge. Great for family get-togethers, a gathering of friends, a writer's retreat, or anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle. The living room features a rotary phone with a bluetooth adapter that will connect to your smartphone; a telescope so you can take advantage of the vivid night sky views or do some birdwatching; and magazines from the '70s. In the study, put a record on and turn on the old analog TV or play a tune on the piano for ambience...it doesn't get any channels, but there sure is something soothing about the glow of a snowy screen. In the dining area, watch the sun rise and play some old-timey board games. Catch the sunset from the sunroom, and get peek-a-boo views of the lake in the winter when the trees lose their leaves. Enjoy the game room downstairs in the finished basement, or cozy up on the couch and watch TV. But don't forget to get outside and explore all the sights the area has to offer. While we've modernized the house where necessary (new furniture, flatscreen TV, some new appliances, fresh coats of paint where needed, etc.), we've preserved some of the original 70s elements of the house (such as the wallpaper and original bathroom vanities) where possible. This gives it an authentic charm. But it also means not everything in the house is shiny and new. We ask that guests don't use the fireplaces in the house to avoid fire hazards.
