    What's special

    Escape to your own slice of paradise in this sun-drenched ranch, perfectly situated in the beautiful Lake Chaffee Association. Enjoy the ease of one-story living in this cozy home. Beautiful tongue-and-groove wood paneling provides a cottage charm while keeping the rooms flooded with natural light. Currently a 2-bedroom home, the flexible layout can easily be configured back to 3-bedrooms. An energy efficient pellet stove in the living room helps keep your heating expenses down. Home features a newer roof, central air conditioning and newer leach field (replaced 5 years ago) AND a fenced in back yard! Storage opportunities abound in the full, dry basement with access to the garage and under the deck. Plenty of space for yard tools and TOYS! As part of the lake association, you are steps away from your private lake access offering two beaches, a boat launch and a fishing pier. Gas engine boats are strictly prohibited on the water which helps keep the water clean and a great environment for kayaking, paddleboarding, or swimming. Lake Chaffee is convenient to UCONN, I-84, Boston and NYC. Whether you are looking to downsize, purchase a weekend getaway, or find a permanent sanctuary, this nature lover's dream is ready for its next chapter. Closing subject to sellers ability to secure suitable housing. A contract is pending! ***Owner is requesting highest & best by Wednesday, 8/19 at 6:00 pm.***
