$595,000 - Lake Beseck
Fall on Lake Beseck may just be its best-kept secret. Wake up to spectacular sunrises reflecting off the water, take in the changing colors from your private deck, and enjoy peaceful days kayaking, fishing or simply relaxing lakeside. This charming direct waterfront cottage offers the lake lifestyle buyers dream about, with private docks and a floating dock providing instant access to the water. Motorboats are welcome, so when warmer days return, boating and swimming are right outside your door. Inside, the open floor plan is filled with natural light and flows into a beautiful sunroom wrapped in windows, keeping the lake views front and center in every season. Step outside to the Trex deck, the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening cocktails and a front-row seat to some unforgettable sunrises. Thoughtfully maintained with central air and a new roof in 2024, this home is ready to enjoy from day one. Lake Beseck is managed by DEEP, and no flood insurance is required. Looking to create something more? There is potential to build up to 35 feet, subject to approvals. Just minutes from I-91 and close to Powder Ridge, Lyman Orchards and four golf courses, this is more than a summer escape. It's a place to enjoy every season and start making lake memories now.
