About this property

Nature & Luxury @Lavender Lake Est (Kosher optional)

Dream country home!!

We recently purchased the ‘Lavender Lake Estate’ after a multi-year search for the perfect country house!

We were looking for something special for our large family & this estate absolutely blew us away. Pictures don't do the property justice, truly one of a kind!


UPDATE:
We’ve been living here since March with my 2 young kids & have made significant investments to make the house even better, especially with kids during quarantine!
We added:
- Swing Set/Playground
- Sandbox
- Basement kids playroom with indoor swing
- Built a 2nd Home Office/Nursery with great wifi and privacy
- Upgraded house sound system with new high end Samsung Bluetooth speakers
-Created & improved our hiking trails, multiple hikes on the property, hike for miles & hours without leaving home!
- Building a beautiful herb garden, help us maintain as a hobby or just enjoy the fresh herbs for your cooking convenience!



Nestled among the Northwest hills in the quaint hamlet of Woodbury, the house maintains privacy in a cozy setting while affording all the comforts of modern living

This spectacular contemporary home, which was built by the original owner in 2001, has soaring exposed beamed ceilings, an open and airy interior, and giant windows to take in the gorgeous hillside views and crystal clear swimming pond.

As you enter the house you are greeted by a comfy & generously sized living room with 20 feet high ceilings!
Enjoy the open layout kitchen and dining room featuring a reclaimed farmhouse dining table that comfortably seats 12 along with a newly renovated kitchen that has a counter seating, a beverage fridge, ice maker and any other appliance you might need

Steps off of the kitchen you'll find another living room with 16' high wood beamed ceiling equipped with 75' Samsung TV, Ping Pong Table, Bean Bags, Board Games and wait for it...Giant Trampoline & Basketball Hoop!

Originally intended to be a kids play room we quickly took advantage of the ceiling height and made it a hang out for all ages.

In addition to the living room & family room other common spaces are the upstairs sitting area & our newly finished basement featuring play space for little kids & pool table for the big kids + another 65' Samsung TV.

Once you step outside the house however, that's when you enter the truly unique 1 of a kind property featuring 160' natural stream swimming pond!

The man made pond has a stream that runs through it filtering the water and avoiding the typical swamp/marsh effect that often make ponds too much hassle. Thanks to the stream we don't have mosquito's, algae or pond scum of any kind!
The pond is of course great for swimming and comes equipped with 3 kayaks, SUP (stand up paddle board), dock and other fun swimming gear.

As mentioned above, the house also has a custom built gunite Heated pool with heated jacuzzi spa attached +separate Hot tub mainly for winter months when the pool is covered.

Of course when you're tired of playing in the water you can explore the rest of the property with 10 acres full of hiking trails throughout!!

The house is KOSHER optional, if that means anything to you please inquire.

We have grandkids of all ages from 6 months to 14 years old so we likely have all you need for your kids including:
2 Cribs
2 Pack n plays
2 High chairs
5 Sound Machines
Board Games
Toys of all ages
Pool floaties & toys
+ much much more!

Lavender Lake Est.

My family and l had a wonderful time and made so many incredible memories- there was so much to do for all three generations that were there. The pool was incredibly warm, the seating and bedrooms accommodated all of us, and the kids enjoyed the trampoline, pond, and all of the toys. The check in email was so thorough and made check in a breeze. It was a true pleasure staying with you!

We had a fabulous time! Each year my mom hosts a making memories trip for her kids and grand kids. The house was fabulous...pool was well used and the grounds great. we set up a pickle ball net on the driveway. Plenty of room and the key was 2 bedrooms on the first floor. Made tons of memories - Thanks so much for a wonderful stay.

Beautiful property

Our family reunion, consisting of grandparents, parents and children stayed at this property in July, 2024. This home is lovely with spacious bedrooms, plenty of linen and towels, and 2 fabulous play areas. One play area had an enormous trampoline, which was a favorite of children (and their parents and one grandparent :). The ping pong table was well used as well as the Duplo, soft foam blocks, bowling toy and many, many other toys. The downstairs play area had an elaborate train set, a play kitchen and a play tool set. Our grandchildren spent many happy hours between the 2 play areas. The kitchen had 2 refrigerators (one very large and one under the counter), and good appliances. There is a wonderful pool with a wide variety of floaty toys. During the first few days there were a few minor issues that arose. The owners were VERY quick to respond and work through them. I must mention that although the temperature was quite hot and humid the week we were there, the house was extremely cool and comfortable with thermostats on each level. We saw a family of deer several times during our stay. I highly recommend this lovely property!

Amazing house, perfect for a group anysize

Wow, we had so much fun at this house we barely left! We went in the winter for an annual boys trip of cooking and playing games and we could not have picked a better place. The kitchen and living room space allowed for everyone to be included no matter what was going on and the bonus room with indoor trampoline was very practical. Playing games and watching tv was easy from any room. The pool table downstairs was great to have and the grill and property were great even in the cold weather. Thank you for an amazing stay and vacation!

Just What We Needed!!

Let me start by saying our stay at Ori's home was nothing short of Amazing!! When we walk in we were surprised at how much better the house was in person than on line and online looks great! This was our first Christmas together without our mom, so we really needed this! We as a family wanted to spend sometime laughing and enjoying each other in a fun yet peaceful atmosphere. That is what this house gave us. The "big" and little kids enjoyed both game rooms, especially the trampoline!! The amenities, the open floor plan and big rooms were perfect!! Any questions or concerns we had were answered promptly. I want to say Thank You Ori and Soli on behalf of My Entire Family!! You Blessed Us this Christmas! 🙏🏾🙏🏾 We will be back to take a dip in the pool and enjoy the beautiful outdoor space you have!!

Amazing amazing house and host

We had thanksgiving here and it couldn't have been better. We were 9 adults and 7 kids! Which is A LOT, but the house and property is huge and is so well laid out. There was a bathroom for every bedroom which was awesome with so many families. There are 2 huge playrooms, with one of them having a full sized trampoline! It is a kids dream house. And the kitchen, fireplace, dining and living areas are perfect for adults. Ori, the host, was also super responsive, helpful and accommodating leading up to us staying and then whilst we were there. At one point there was limited hot water and he had someone over to fix it asap. There were also a few items that we needed for the kitchen and he offered to reimburse us for anything we purchased. I would highly recommend staying here (if you can book it! as i'm sure it's going be in high demand!).
