Property Description
Welcome to 60 Housatonic Drive, where lake living meets everyday comfort in the desirable Shady Rest community on Lake Zoar. Ideally located minutes from Sandy Hook village, this light-filled lakefront home offers the space, flexibility, and waterfront lifestyle you've been waiting for-complete with its own 12' X 14' dock and boat launch . Officially a 3 bedroom home, it lives like a 4 bedroom, thanks to a versatile main-level flex room offering the potential for an additional sleeping space, home office, den, playroom, or whatever best suits your needs. The bright, inviting kitchen is a true highlight, featuring a wall of windows overlooking the lake. Outdoor living shines with three distinct entertaining spaces: a screened-in porch for breezy summer evenings, an oversized deck ideal for dining and gatherings, and a patio for even more room to relax outdoors. Lake enthusiasts will love the additional garage/storage area in the basement with exterior doors, providing convenient space for a boat, jet ski, and your favorite water toys. And with a brand-new roof and whole-house generator, important updates have already been taken care of. Whether you're heading out from your dock for a day on the lake, entertaining loved ones, or simply enjoying the peaceful water views from home, 60 Housatonic offers an incredible opportunity to embrace the lake lifestyle in one of Sandy Hook's most sought-after waterfront communities.
