About This Home

As of February 2023

Rare Find! Lakefront property on beautiful Upper Moodus Reservior. Fabulous primary home, vacation home or Turnkey Airbnb! - Two car attached garage. Meticulously maintained, newly painted interior; pool table loaf overlooking a 108" Home Theater dropdown screen. Beautifully furnished, right down to the salt & pepper shakers! Easily sleeps 12 people. Windows everywhere! With two wedding venues nearby, and zero hotels in town, several wedding parties and families have really enjoyed our property. We had a long-term renter for four years, leaving October 10, 2022. During 2017 - October 2018, we were doing summertime weekly rentals for $5,000; we would be charging $6,500/week today. We have an established, long-time relationship with a dedicated maintenance crew, as well as all required tradesmen. Completed in 2008, the circa 1955, approximatly 1,200 s.f. cottage, was converted into a 3,067 +/- s.f. Lakefront Party House! Pool table loft overlooking Great Room with hidden home theater with 108" dropdown screen. Home to "Outrageous" (past) Super Bowl parties! Located directly adjacent to the small private beach owned by the HOA the property belongs to. Great fishing. Upper Moodus Reservoir is beautiful and hypnotic. Largely surrounded by farms; no construction allowed on the lake until 2087. It is a bass management lake loaded with Big Fat Lunkers! Less than an hour to Bradley International Airport.
