Property Description
Set along the shoreline of Lake Oscaleta, this direct waterfront home offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and truly usable lakefront property in the heart of South Salem. Occupying .564 acres with sweeping frontage on one of the area's most peaceful glacial lakes, the setting is defined by something increasingly hard to find - an expansive, level lawn that extends all the way to the water. Unlike many lakefront properties where steep slopes limit access and usability, this property offers a broad, open yard ideal for entertaining, recreation, or simply enjoying the outdoors. The gentle approach to the lake creates an effortless connection between the home and the water, making everyday use as practical as it is beautiful. At the shoreline, a substantial private dock and swim platform provide immediate access to the lake, whether for launching kayaks and paddleboards or spending long summer days in and around the water. Lake Oscaleta is known for its depth and quiet character, with limited motorized use that preserves its calm, reflective setting. The home itself has been thoughtfully updated and is designed to maximize its connection to the lake. The main level, offering approximately 1,578 square feet, is centered around an open living and dining space with vaulted, wood-beamed ceilings and a striking brick fireplace that anchors the room. Walls of glass and sliding doors frame the water from nearly every angle, filling the home with natural light and providing seamless access to the expansive deck - perfect for dining, entertaining, or simply taking in the view. The kitchen integrates comfortably into the living space, creating an easy flow for both everyday living and gatherings. The primary bedroom enjoys direct access to the deck and lake views, while two additional bedrooms and well-appointed baths complete the main level. The home is also equipped with an automatic whole-house generator, providing peace of mind and uninterrupted comfort year-round. The full walkout lower level adds approximately 1,200 square feet of flexible living space, ideal for guests, recreation, or extended stays. With its own fireplace, multiple seating areas, and direct access to the stone patio and backyard, it functions as a true extension of the home, offering both comfort and versatility. Outside, the landscape has been designed to complement the natural setting, with a combination of lawn, stonework, and mature trees creating multiple outdoor living areas without sacrificing the openness of the yard. From the elevated deck to the covered patio below, every space is positioned to take advantage of the lake. Just minutes from the hamlets of South Salem and Ridgefield, and within easy reach of Metro North and major highways, this is a property that offers both escape and accessibility. A rare opportunity to own a level, highly usable waterfront property with a substantial dock on one of Northern Westchester's most serene lakes.
