Waterfront on two sides of the house. Note the beautiful stone retaining wall built in 2017. The front of the house faces west so the interior is flooded with light from dawn to dusk. One of the only houses with a long view of the entire length of the main lake to the hills of Beartown State Forest. Privately sited on a promontory with water views in all directions with privacy from neighbors which is quite rare on these lakes. North facade with dock and boat lift. Extensive hardscaping was added in 2017 including a solid rock fire pit. Entry porch, along with French doors to the primary suite. Water views everywhere. Sunny interior from dawn to dusk. French doors lead to the wraparound screened porch. The great room revolves around the stone fireplace. The dining area has doors to the screened porch and the large deck. Morning sun lights the bathes the kitchen and dining with light. The dining area is open to the kitchen. Panoramic water views from the wraparound screened porch. New appliances, countertops and island were installed in 2021. Plenty of room for everyone in the kitchen. Leading to the primary suite. Views up the lake from bed through French doors to a covered porch. The primary bathroom has double sinks and a separate shower/water closet. There's a hidden outdoor shower as well. Stairs to the second floor. Although winterized, the second floor bedrooms retained the original lake cottage feeling. Dual aspect water views. More water views from this guest room. The third guest room makes for a great kids bunk room. Formerly two small bedrooms made into one. The second floor family TV room works as a home office and space for overflow guests. The desk faces the water! Newer fixtures in the guest bathroom include a tub/shower combo. Water views even from here. Sited at the end of a long private shared drive. Aerial of the south and east facades, including the large deck off of the dining area. Note the outdoor shower nearby. The large deck was built by the Amish in 1998 and resurfaced with top-of-the-line composite decking in 2021. View from the covered porch and the patio. Every night is a unique light show. 14 Bidwell Rd, Monterey, MA 01245

Property Description
Arguably the best waterfront location on Lake Garfield, this 1935 cottage was completely renovated, added to and winterized in 1997/98, with further recent renovations including a new metal roof and HVAC. The owners created a quintessential lake house with fresh and modern amenities, fixtures and appliances. Although one would want to spend all their time on the wraparound porches and decks, the bright interior offers a great room with a stone fireplace, a first floor primary suite, three second floor guest bedrooms and a large overflow family room, all with water views. New extensive hardscape including stone retaining walls, patio and fire pit lead to a long dock and boat lift. There's a beach for pulling up kayaks and jet skis, with easy swimming off the dock. Offered mostly furnished.
