About This Home

As of August 2022

Welcome to Driftwood Lane! Skip a stone. Take a hike. Sit a spell. Listen, daydream, just breathe - This is lake living, and for those who know, there's nothing like it. Sitting on a full acre with views worthy of a Bob Ross painting, this home boasts 48 feet of lakefront, its own dock, and deeded rights to four private beaches on Canoe Brook Lake. Stunning in every season, this spot allows for ample appreciation of mother nature. Besides the myriad of water activities afforded by the lake, you can also walk and bike to nearby Kaechele Farm Park or Pequonnock River Valley State Park. And, when you're finished playing outside, there is plenty of room inside this home to warm up, refuel and start again. Over 4000 square feet of total living space, including formal dining and living rooms, expansive great room with built-ins, and an open kitchen/family room with windows galore and French doors to the deck. Perfect for taking in the morning sun as it dances off the lake. Add to that, a primary suite with full bath and walk-in closet, 3 more bedrooms, and a full walk-out lower level, and you've found your happy place.
