137 Cole Shears Court, Carmel

A once-in-a-lifetime property, Hidden Lakes Camp is only 50 miles from Manhattan, but feels like the middle of the Adirondacks. Two private, spring-fed lakes anchor the 88-acres. Massive rock outcroppings, hardwoods, and evergreens frame their shores, offering a breathtaking backdrop during every season from every vantage point. The recently renovated three-bedroom home sited at the water's edge includes a cathedral ceiling great room with a beautiful stone fireplace. The second residence, also a recently renovated three-bedroom, has a massive double-heigh great room, with a window wall onto the second lake. Additionally, there is a large, light-filled barn that could be converted into a third house, an art studio/gallery complex, or place for hosting large gatherings. Besides the privacy that 88 acres affords, the property is contiguous to thousands of acres of state-owned land making it even more of a rarity. Enjoy the property in its current state, or take advantage of further development opportunities: as a family compound, retreat center, or event space. There is no other property this close to NYC with as much beauty, privacy and potential.
