Get ready to experience all that lake life has to offer at this meticulously maintained Lake Pocotopaug home! This picturesque retreat is just a short walk to a private beach association and includes a deeded right-of-way to a nearby boat launch, providing convenient access to the lake. As you enter the home from the front Trex porch, you're greeted by an open-concept floor plan filled with natural light, neutral paint colors, and hardwood floors. The tiled entryway leads into a modernly updated kitchen, complete with soapstone countertops, large island, farmhouse sink, soft-close cabinetry, tile backsplash, upgraded appliances, and a walk-in pantry. The kitchen flows into the large dining area and living room with propane fireplace, creating an inviting space for entertaining. Hardwood flooring extends upstairs, where you'll find three generously sized bedrooms with ample closet space, along with full walk-up attic access, offering plenty of storage. The spacious full bathroom boasts a generously sized vanity with ample counter space and dual sinks. Back on the main level, you'll find an additional living room with cathedral ceilings and skylights that leads to a rear-entry mudroom before stepping outside through the brand new back slider. The relaxing backyard oasis offers a Trex deck with retractable awning for added shade, a professionally landscaped stone patio with retaining walls, and a fish pond water feature. The beautiful, yet simple gardens allow for easy maintenance to truly enjoy the tranquil outdoor space. The oversized, custom Corbin-built barn garage is a dream space for a workshop or boat storage, featuring full insulation, electricity, two garage door entrances, a walk-up attic for additional storage, and another patio sitting area with fire pit. Other notable upgrades inside the home include a new central A/C system to cool the upstairs, ductless split system on the main level, water filtration system, flat ceilings, and recessed lighting for a modern, clean finish. The garage leads into the partially finished basement, which includes a laundry room and half bath. This inviting home blends indoor and outdoor comfort with peaceful surroundings, beautiful views, and private direct access to the water, creating the perfect setting for year-round enjoyment. Nearby amenities include local shops, restaurants, and walking distance to Sears Park.
