Welcome to Pine Hollow, a private, year-round sanctuary nestled along the tranquil shores of Galway Lake. Set on a rare and expansive .44-acre lot with 144 feet of pristine lake frontage, this custom-crafted home is one of the few true four-season residences on the lake, offering peaceful views and direct water access in every season.
From the moment you arrive, Pine Hollow feels like a retreat from the world, where time slows down, and moments become memories. Mornings begin with a quiet paddle, and evenings end around the crackling fire pit, wrapped in blankets and stories. Whether you're watching snowflakes swirl outside the window or listening to summer rain dance on the roof, this is a place that holds you close through every season.
Thoughtfully renovated in 2005 and lovingly enhanced ever since, the home blends rustic charm with whimsical character. Inside, knotty pine walls, wide-plank floors, stained glass transoms, and a custom hobbit-style front door create a warm, inviting space that feels both grounded and magical. Nearly every room, including the vaulted post-and-beam living room, both bedrooms, and the sunroom, offers views of the lake that change with the light and the seasons.
The kitchen charms with its Dutch door, handcrafted tile and locally sourced wood countertops. On the walkout lower level, you’ll find a second custom kitchen, a new half bath, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace that anchors the family room perfect for guests, multigenerational living, or hosting lakeside gatherings.
But it’s the outdoors that truly captures the heart. Three separate stone patios, including one with a steel and stone fire pit, invite long conversations and stargazing. Three terraced decks offer layered views of the lake and woods, each level providing a new perspective and purpose. A new lower deck, completed in 2024, leads seamlessly to the water’s edge, where a private boat dock and swimming platform await. This area of the lake offers a deep-water entrance perfect for diving right in, launching a kayak, or joyfully jumping off the dock. Whether you’re savoring a sunrise swim or docking after a sunset paddle, every inch of this lakeside landscape is designed for connection, laughter, and lasting memories.
Additional outdoor features include a boat shed, custom boat racks, a 12-person cedar picnic table, lush perennial gardens, and a potting shed with sliding barn doors. There’s even room to expand—or simply take in the rare sense of space that this lot offers, something few lakefront homes can claim. Additional features include: Anderson windows, EV charger, ADT security system, water treatment system, cedar closets.
Located on a non-motorized (electric motors are allowed), private lake, Galway Lake offers calm waters perfect for swimming,boating, paddling, and unplugged living. Whether you're seeking a full-time home or a four-season escape, Pine Hollow is more than a property—it’s a place to slow down, reconnect, and begin the next chapter of your story.
