Welcome to this charming lakeside seasonal retreat on Bantam Lake, Connecticut's largest natural lake, nestled within the highly sought-after Breezy Knoll lakefront community. This inviting 3 bedroom, 2 bath cottage combines timeless lake house charm with modern comfort, featuring a renovated kitchen, cozy sunroom, and wraparound porch with partial lake views. Owners enjoy access to 10+/- acres of beautifully maintained shared waterfront grounds, including a sandy beach, swimming/boat docks, red clay tennis court, playground with ping pong, and two private parking areas. The setting offers an unmatched blend of recreation, relaxation, and community. Ideally located just minutes from fine dining, farmers markets, boutiques, home made ice cream shop & artisan bakeries, the property also offers exceptional walkability. Stroll across the street to buy fresh seafood or enjoy casual dining at West Shore Seafood. Walk to the Bantam Cinema, local soccer fields, the White Memorial's extensive hiking and biking trails, the Litchfield Hills Rowing Club, or the Bantam Lake Ski Club. The association homes have direct, completely flat access to the lake with no roads between houses and lake. The property is surrounded by mature specimen trees and lovely landscaping. It is a 250 foot walk across flat lawn to get from parking lot to house.
A rare opportunity to become part of one of Bantam Lake's most treasured waterfront communities. Homes in Breezy Knoll seldom come to market, with many remaining in the same families for generations.
