About This Home
Every weekend you wait is another weekend someone else gets to spend here. Wake up to spectacular sunrises over Lake Beseck, spend the day boating, swimming, kayaking or fishing, and end the evening relaxing on your private deck as the water sparkles just steps away. This direct waterfront cottage offers the lake lifestyle so many dream about, yet so few ever find. With private docks and a floating dock, you'll enjoy instant access to the lake where motorboats are welcome. Paddle the shoreline, cast a line from your dock, or take a short stroll to the town beach for another day in the sun. Inside, the charming open floor plan is filled with natural light and flows into a beautiful sunroom wrapped in walls of windows that keep the breathtaking views front and center. The Trex deck is the perfect place for morning coffee, summer gatherings, and unforgettable sunrises. Thoughtfully maintained with central air and a new roof in 2024, this home is ready to enjoy from day one. Because Lake Beseck is managed by DEEP, no flood insurance is required. Looking ahead? The home offers the potential to build up to 35 feet (subject to approvals), creating the opportunity for an even more spectacular waterfront retreat. Conveniently located just minutes from I-91 and in the heart of Connecticut's recreation corridor, you'll enjoy easy access to Powder Ridge, Lyman Orchards, and four nearby golf courses. Lake homes are more than real estate. They're where summers become tradition.
