Nestled on 1.34 pristine acres along the shores of Connecticut’s largest lake, this extraordinary property offers not just a home, but a lifestyle that blends luxury, tranquility, and adventure in equal measure.

Listed at $3,450,000 by Heather Neumann Salaga and Cory Neumann of Houlihan Lawrence, this elegant lakeside retreat spans over 8,000 square feet and features four spacious bedrooms, four full and two half bathrooms, and a host of custom amenities designed for refined indoor-outdoor living.

Step inside to discover soaring vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a flowing open-concept floor plan that lets the views take center stage. The main level includes a warm and welcoming great room with a dramatic stone fireplace, a bright chef’s kitchen complete with high-end appliances and a large island, and a formal dining room ideal for hosting. French doors spanning the rear open wide to an expansive deck that brings the outdoors in and provides the perfect backdrop for gatherings and get-togethers. The main-level primary suite is a serene escape with spa-like amenities, lake views, and dual walk-in closets. Upstairs, three private bedroom suites and a spacious bonus room offer space for family or guests.
