About This Home

As of May 2024

***HOME is UNCONVENTIONAL & NEEDS WORK - CASH ONLY - LIKELY NEEDS NEW SEPTIC SYSTEM***Nature Lovers' Paradise! This unique house was originally built as a duck-blind in 1930s, and was expanded into an 1100 Sqft 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom home in 2004. Tucked in the quiet corner of Connecticut, this home is right on the banks on Paradise Lake, which is a small, quiet reservoir perfect for fishing, bird watching or kayaking. The main level of the house consists of a sitting room, a living room and a large bedroom, all with large windows and sliders overlooking the lake. The house has the feel of a secluded log cabin retreat, with pine walls, propane fireplaces, cathedral ceilings, and a house length deck. A spiral staircase will take you either up to the loft area, big enough to fit a full size bed, or down to the lower level where the existing kitchen area is located. The house is NOW being sold with adjacent lots lot 55-61 totaling 1.05 acres.*** This is a probate sale, subject to probate court approval. Home is being sold AS-IS/WHERE-IS, including any and all personal property. The seller reserves the right to remove or leave any or all of the personal property at their discretion.***
