Wake up to sparkling water views and savor the serenity of lakefront living in this storybook Cape Cod-style retreat on Highland Lake's desirable east side. Tucked away on a peaceful private lane, this year-round haven offers 3 bedrooms & 2 full baths, perfectly blending classic charm with modern comfort. Step into the spacious kitchen, where sun-drenched mornings begin at the breakfast nook and flow effortlessly into a welcoming dining room-- ideal for holiday feasts & weekend gatherings. The bright, open main living area, with a wall of sliders, invites you to soak in sweeping water views and step out onto the expansive composite deck. With a retractable awning overhead, this outdoor oasis becomes your favorite spot for coffee at sunrise or cocktails at sunset. On cooler days, curl up by the wood-burning fireplace in the cozy family room, or use the space as a quiet, inspiring home office with views of the lake. Upstairs, three inviting bedrooms offer comfort and privacy for family and guests. Spend evenings making memories around the fire pit, watching the sun dip below the horizon. Launch your kayak from the private dock, take the boat out for a day of fun, or simply float & relax in the crystal-clear waters Highland Lake is known for. Recent updates include new roof (2025), new furnace (2021), vinyl siding + replacement windows. Additional features: 1-car attached garage, 1st floor laundry, walk-out basement, public water & sewer, keyless entry & convenient storage shed. Located just minutes from Route 8 with easy access to New York and the Berkshires, this home is more than a place-- it's a lifestyle. Don't just live near the lake...live the lake life you've always dreamed of! Professional interior photos coming soon...
