61 Silver Springs Drive
Haddam, CT 06441
$115,000 - Higganum
Discover a homesite unlike anything offered by an ordinary building lot. Set on 2.33 wooded acres in the desirable Chatham Lake community, 61 Silver Springs Drive combines dramatic natural terrain, privacy and the potential for remarkable elevated views. The property rises from the road toward a secluded homesite near the top of the hill. A future driveway will climb through an impressive natural corridor framed by substantial ledge formations, creating a distinctive approach and a true sense of arrival. At the top, the elevated setting opens the possibility of expansive ridgeline and woodland views, depending upon the home's placement, orientation and selective clearing. The wooded surroundings and exposed stone give the property an unmistakably New England character while offering an exceptional setting for a thoughtfully designed custom home. This is an opportunity for a buyer who appreciates architecture shaped by the land and wants something more memorable than a conventional, level homesite. Located within the established Chatham Lake neighborhood, residents enjoy access to the lake for swimming, kayaking, fishing and relaxing by the water. The community is surrounded by attractive custom homes and offers a peaceful country atmosphere while remaining convenient to Route 9 and the shops, restaurants and small-town charm of Higganum, Chester, Essex and Old Saybrook. **See below for additional information**
