This lakefront cottage has been enjoyed by the same family for 25 years and has ~100 feet of lake frontage! This highly sought after location rests on West Hill Lake and is one of the most pristine lakes in CT with over 260 acres of clean water, perfect for swimming, kayaking, and paddle boarding. Conveniently store your boat in the large 12x24’ Barnyard garage that was just purchased last year. Cast your line and reel in trout, bass, and salmon from your very own dock or go for a long hike in the woods. Next to the lake is Brodie Park which has 4 basketball hoops, 2 tennis courts, and a playground. This lake has something for everyone! This 2 bed 1 bath cottage rests on a half acre on what many would say is the “sunny side” of the lake. Minutes to Route 8 and roughly 7 miles to Ski Sundown, Farmington River Tubing, Peoples State Forest, and the local brewery/vineyard. This seasonal cottage no longer has heat so you’ll have to cozy up next to the fireplace on those cool autumn nights in order to enjoy the foliage all weekend long. Don’t miss your chance to enjoy life at the lake!
