In the early 20th century, when the weather turned warm, and city residents would escape to the shaded banks of Jacob's Creek and all its recreational activities, this home at one time served as the clubhouse for a 9-hole golf course. Beamed ceilings, stone walls, and a monumental fireplace remain - all hallmarks to the original structure that was built to resemble an Adirondack-style lodge, while all else has been fabulously reinvented to current lifestyles. The spacious living room features a large central skylight that modernizes it and filters in the sunlight. Opening to a wraparound porch with tree-top views spanning the creek, there’s a wonderful connection with nature. The dining room features a rustic brick floor, charming windows, and a door that opens outside. The light and bright eat-in kitchen also connects outside, with a side porch that’s perfect for a grill and a path from there that leads to the inground swimming pool. The main bedroom includes two large closets and a private bathroom while the guest bedroom and another bathroom accommodate overnight visitors with ease. An intimate study, adjacent to the family room, is the perfect spot to get some work done. Storage is abundant throughout. The setting of 1.11 professionally landscaped acres, is sunlit on the hilltop side and canopied by old shade at creekside. Centrally located, less than 10 minutes away from major commuter roads, this home and location feels like a tucked away retreat. Whether as a year-round abode or a weekend retreat, this home should not be missed! Public Sewer and Well Water!
