About This Home

As of June 2025

Waterfront Property on Higganum Reservoir - A Rare Opportunity! Experience the unique charm of this waterfront property with private access to Higganum Reservoir. Enjoy fresh water swimming in the summer and ice fishing or ice skating in the winter! This meticulously maintained 2-bedroom Cape underwent a facelift in the 1990s and offers year-round water views from every floor. As you enter through the front door, you'll be greeted by cathedral ceilings and an inviting interior balcony, perfect for a sitting room. The primary suite, located off this sitting area, faces the water, providing a serene retreat. The front bedroom, currently used as a dining room, offers flexible space to suit your needs. The back of the home features a spacious eat-in kitchen and a cozy family room with a wood-burning fireplace. Sliding doors lead from these rooms to a back deck, where you can savor beautiful views of the reservoir. A full bathroom completes the main floor. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a private balcony deck, the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee while gazing at the reservoir. With a little updating and your personal touch, this home could become your peaceful retreat! Note: Subject to probate.
