The spacious kitchen opens to a newly added screened-in porch, ideal for morning coffee or elegant entertaining. A cozy den and a living room with a gas fireplace add to the home's inviting ambiance. The primary bedroom offers an en-suite bath with dual vanities and laundry access. Set in a nature lover's paradise, the property is steps from Steep Rock Preserve and 3 minutes from private beach access at Lake Waramaug.
