Custom Adirondack Great Camp on Lake George, |
|
This eclectic home has the look and the feel of an Adirondack Great Camp built in the early 1900’s. The artistic owner/designer worked with a few very qualified North Country artistic craftsmen who translated her imaginative ideas into the construction of this NEW Adirondack Great Camp in 2007/08! Treasures were culled from innumerable sources and creatively incorporated into this spectacular year round Lake George home on Friends Point, in Hague. The chimney of this one of a kind stone fireplace, soars through open space to the peak of the cathedral ceiling. Automatic sky-lights & high windows illuminate the fireplace and sitting area below. A small waterfall frolics across the chimney’s stones, adding sparkle and a relaxing sound to this idyllic setting in front of a warming fire. What appears to be an outside window is actually an inside wall with a multi-paned window /mirror reflecting the expansive view to the east. Both inside and outside of this home you will find unusual items used in simple ways and usual items taking on a new function. The textures, colors and materials creates a home that appear to be integrated with nature intrinsically. Radiant heat beneath the wood and tile floors provides invisible warmth in winter; open windows and overhead fans keep this home comfortable during the summer season while 3 foot over-hangs prevent rain from coming inside. The common living areas are formed from one large, high ceiling room; areas are spatially separated by furnishings. The kitchen is part of the common living area and is placed so that the hosts can easily bring food to the table, join in conversation with guests, or sit at the island’s wood counter to have a mid-morning snack. The deck over the crib “U” dock, the large screen porch and the outside stone patio & fire-pit will be the favorite gathering places during warm weather. This home typifies the ideas of architect Mitch Witkowski, “create spaces that live, animated with light, enriched with the texture of beautiful materials, that affords a simple, elegant approach to living.” This home does all of that, plus it was built to last for generations. This a very special property and home for someone who appreciates quality workmanship and artistic creativity. Words can’t adequately describe this home…it must be seen. |
