Property Description
Nestled on the banks of the Connecticut River, this private cottage offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern convenience. Set on 0.69 acres at the end of a quiet dead-end road, the property features beautifully landscaped gardens, intricate stonework, and a spacious green lawn framed by mature trees. A detached two-car garage sits on the upper terrace, with easy access down to the heart of the property. From the garage, choose either a graceful stairway leading to an expansive multi-level deck with multiple seating areas, or follow a gentle sloping path past tiered stone garden beds to the lawn that stretches down to the private dock. The cottage is full of character and warmth with a sitting room anchored by a wood stove, a cozy and efficient kitchen, a 3/4 bathroom with shower, and a small office nook. The bedroom, located in the northeastern corner, opens directly onto the screened-in porch - perfect for relaxing with river views and morning light. Natural light fills the home throughout the day, adding to its tranquil ambiance. The large private dock offers seasonal boat storage and easy access to the Connecticut River for kayaking, fishing, swimming, and other recreational activities. With its serene setting, thoughtful landscaping, and direct water access, this property is an ideal riverside retreat. The property has a state-approved septic design available for a new owner. Showings start Saturday, July 12, 2025.
