About This Home
Lakefront living doesn't get much better than this! Completely rebuilt on its original footprint in 2011, this inviting 2-bedroom cottage combines the charm of a classic lake retreat with the comfort and efficiency of a modern home. The open-concept interior features soaring 14-foot vaulted ceilings, cherry hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and a handsome wood-burning masonry fireplace for cozy evenings by the lake. Central heating and air conditioning powered by propane, plus 200-amp electrical service, make this an easy year-round escape. And then there is the setting. An exceptional lot with sweeping 180-degree views of Harwinton Lake puts the water front and center in every season. Enjoy peaceful mornings, and sun-filled afternoons as well as a built-in firepit at waters edge from your own private piece of the shoreline. Shed, water toys and access to 3 private Lake Association beaches! Looking for a weekend getaway, a manageable full-time lake home or an established investment property? Since 2013, the home has operated successfully as a short-term vacation rental across multiple platforms. It may be purchased turnkey, offering the next owner the chance to arrive, unpack and start enjoying lake life from day one.
