About This Home

As of May 2019

A RARE OPPORTUNITY to own this one of a kind lakefront property on coveted Deer Island. Deer Island is part of Bantam Lake, the largest natural lake in CT. This updated "craftsman home" was fully renovated with care and an eye for period details. The property boasts the largest waterfront on Deer Island.
Located less than two hours from NYC, this expansive three bedroom home with "kid's loft" is ready for your family and friends to enjoy all that lake living has to offer. The large deck and spacious family room with its open kitchen with lake views gives a feeling of being right on the water.
The beautiful sloping lawn meets over 200 feet of waterfront on a quiet, no wake cove. You can enjoy the swim dock, paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing or just relaxing. Your own private dock is large enough for your powerboat and sailboats, all just steps away from a home that will make everyone always feel that they are on vacation. The lake is surrounded by White Memorial Conservation Land where hiking trails used year round. The historical town of Litchfield boasts museums, great dining and shopping.
