Life on the Pond in Columbia County, $549,000
Kandy Harris | May 11, 2015Want the kind of house that feels like you’re on vacation all the time? That’s immediately what popped into our minds when we saw this Contemporary in Spencertown, located out on Route 203 just shy of the NY/MA border. The house itself is attractive and modern on the inside with spa baths, shiny metal surfaces, and light flooded thanks to lots of windows. But it’s the pond that drew us in completely. It’s big enough to row around in with a canoe. Can you swim in it, though? Even if you can’t, the terraced yard with a staircase that leads down to a waterfront deck (includes hot tub!) is enchanting as heck, and we suspect part-time second home living might transform into year-round ecstasy, especially once we ice-skated on the pond. Just in case the pond is more of an admiring pond than a swimming pond, the Fox Hill Campground swimming beach is about a minute away by car. See? We don’t call it Vacation Land for nothing.
461 Route 203, Austerlitz (Gabel Real Estate)
