Welcome to The Shackteau—an enchanting French Country lakefront estate on the serene shores of Northwest Pond. With 230 feet of private frontage, this exceptional compound blends rustic European elegance with modern luxury. Designed as a peaceful family haven and formerly used as a boutique event venue, providing a perfect balance of nature, privacy, and refinement.
The main residence radiates warmth and sophistication with an open floor plan centered around an elegant gas fireplace connecting the living, dining, and gourmet kitchen areas. Custom finishes, a well-appointed pantry, and a first-floor laundry room, enhance everyday living. Two full baths—one ADA compliant—each with exterior access, ideal for lakeside or garden activities.
Upstairs, a kitchenette/wet bar serves three inviting bedrooms, including the primary suite with sweeping lake views. A double-sided gas fireplace connects the suite to its spa-inspired bath, creating a luxurious retreat. A cozy adjoining nursery or guest room adds versatility.
The property evokes the charm of a French countryside compound, featuring a sauna, stylish tiny house for guests, a charming chicken coop, small barn, and several Amish-built outbuildings. The barn/carport had been home to two miniature horses and includes a feed room, freeze-proof auto-waterer, and exercise rink. Expansive awnings and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces invite year-round enjoyment—from morning paddles to sunset fireside gatherings.
Set on the peaceful, non-motorized Northwest Pond, ideal for swimming, paddling, and meditation—with kayak access to Lake Sherburne—The Shackteau is a sanctuary of serenity and timeless charm.
