A pristine, turnkey waterfront property on Ashford Lake. This year-round contemporary cape home can be your next dream home, private vacation retreat or an investment for vacation rentals. Own a private dock where you can easily climb into your kayak, canoe or non-gas powered boat. Ashford Lake is a quiet and clean lake located 40 mins to Hartford, 90 mins from Boston and 3.5 hours to NYC. Tons of updates have been made by the current owner. The exterior offers easy maintenance with vinyl siding, composite decking & updated windows. Upon entry from the front door your eyes are immediately drawn to the lake views through the many windows. The vaulted living room has hardwood floors, skylights, a wood ceiling & natural stone chimney with a woodstove. Towards the back of the home is the heated “Lake Room” with a wall of windows facing the lake. The large kitchen is full of custom cabinets, an island, updated appliances, sliders to the back covered porch and open to the dining area. Down the hall is a full bath, laundry room, storage closets and one of the bedrooms. Upstairs is a loft that overlooks the living room and could be used as a home office, reading nook, craft space & much more! Across the way is spacious master suite with a full bath with a walk-in shower. The full basement offers lots of storage, in addition to the 2 sheds outside. The house is equipped with an automatic Generac generator. Jump on this amazing opportunity before the summer!
