The quintessential lake house on Lake Waramaug—alluringly featured in both House Beautiful magazine and Weekend Retreats—combines gracious living with an active waterside lifestyle. Interior highlights, ingeniously orchestrated to dazzle, include lake views from every room, a firelit living room with French doors opening to an enclosed porch, a chef’s kitchen, and a dining room with built-in banquet. Four bedrooms, including a first-floor master suite, and three full baths make hosting guests a breeze. Stone terraces, one with a fieldstone fireplace, the other at the water’s edge, afford private spaces for conversation and enjoyment of the views and stunning natural surroundings. An outdoor shower and floating dock with deep water will warm the boating aficionado’s heart.
