About this home
Single Family · Built 1941
Fabulous location with 100 feet of lake frontage. Not just a residence but an investment with the nicest Lake Carnegie view of any of the Lake Front homes. Easy access to the New York City bus, just a short 1 minute walk to Route 27 bus stop. A yard loaded with flowering plants and trees throughout the warmer months. The lake front has a new dock size 6' x 12'. Circular garden with a 25' flag pole and US Flag. Wildlife seen on the Lake includes Swans, Blue Herons, Egrets, and even American Bald Eagles.
