For those who enjoy entertaining and privacy, this 4.3-acre waterfront estate on the shores of Lake Lillinonah is an idyllic retreat. The land directly across from the property is protected open space, ensuring no future development. A private dock and remote-controlled boat lift provide direct lake access, while a hot tub, sauna, fire pit, screened porch, and multi-tiered deck offer a variety of inviting outdoor settings. The 5,400-square-foot residence makes an immediate impression with a two-story foyer and a main level that balances openness with well-defined, functional spaces. The dining room, butler's pantry, and expansive family room connect seamlessly, while a formal living room, private office, and oversized kitchen complete the layout. Upstairs, four bedrooms include a standout primary suite with two walk-in closets, a sitting room, full bath, private deck, and oversized windows overlooking the lake. An additional great room offers flexibility as a fifth bedroom, media room, or playroom. The finished walk-out lower level is designed to serve as its own destination, featuring a spacious game room, large bar area with sink, full bath, flexible bedroom or office, and abundant storage. Direct access to the backyard creates an effortless indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Lake Lillinonah offers the best of both worlds: a relaxed, vacation-inspired lake lifestyle set against a backdrop of large, private parcels and peaceful natural views. *Property is served by a four-bedroom septic system; however, the home functions as a five-plus-bedroom residence.
