Set on 6.7 acres bordered on three sides by Cockaponset State Forest, this distinctive property combines wooded privacy with a shared pond, a flowing river on the land, and access to the Blue Trail hiking network.

The setting is suited to a full-time residence or second home, with opportunities to hike, explore the woods, and enjoy a country setting near Connecticut River towns and coastal destinations.
