Property Description

On the peaceful shoreline of 12-mile Chateaugay Lake, this exceptional lakefront retreat offers the kind of privacy, beauty, and year-round recreation that's increasingly hard to find. Set on 1.8 acres with 169 feet of highly usable waterfront, the property strikes a rare balance between space and accessibility. Mature trees and natural surroundings create a sense of seclusion, while the gentle shoreline and deep-water dockage make it ideal for boating, swimming, and effortless lake living. Inside, the home is warm and inviting, featuring a rich wood interior that perfectly complements its Adirondack setting. Four bedrooms provide ample space for family and guests, while a wood-burning fireplace anchors the living area--perfect for cozy evenings after a day on the water or slopes. Expansive windows frame stunning lake views, bringing in natural light and connecting every room to the outdoors. Step outside to over 1,000 square feet of decking, offering multiple spaces to relax, entertain, or simply take in the spectacular sunrise views over the lake. Whether hosting summer gatherings or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, the setting is truly special. Despite its tranquil, private feel, the home is conveniently located just 15 minutes from the Village of Malone, where you'll find shopping, dining, and everyday essentials. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate close proximity to championship golf at Malone Golf Club and skiing at Titus Mountain Family Ski Center, making this an ideal four-season getaway or full-time residence. This is more than a home--it's a private lakefront lifestyle defined by space, comfort, and natural beauty. Equally appealing is the ease of access to Quebec's charming towns and scenic countryside. Just over an hour's drive away, Montreal delivers a truly cosmopolitan experience--renowned for its world-class dining, high-end shopping, historic architecture, and thriving arts scene.
