Property Description

Incredible opportunity to own a direct lakefront property. Built in 1937 and well-cared for through the years, this 1 Bedroom, 1 Bath home situated on a generous .48 acre lot has sweeping views and over 100' of beach/lake frontage with a private dock. Lake Quonnipaug is an angler's paradise; a serene 98-acre, spring-fed lake regularly stocked with trout by the CT DEEP, alongside thriving large-mouth bass, yellow perch, and chain pickerel. Perfect conditions for seamless kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming, and boating right from your backyard. Need something a little quieter to do? Enjoy quiet mornings observing resident herons, egrets, swans, ducks, and geese. Directly across sits the sandy Lake Quonnipaug Town Beach. Also just minutes from premier hiking at Bluff Head Trailhead and the scenic Guilford Lakes golf course. There is endless potential; use it immediately as a cozy summer getaway, a lucrative rental, or build your ultimate custom lakefront estate. Newer roof, split units, appliances. Includes 1 car-detached garaged and a sweet little shed across the bridge over the stream all on your own property. So many memories and fun to be made right here!
