Description

Vacation all year round, in this privately-set and inviting waterfront home with breathtaking, direct frontage on Samp Mortar Lake - Fairfield's best kept secret. Swim, canoe, fish or just enjoy the captivating natural scenery in your secluded and fenced waterfront oasis, quiet and tucked away, but convenient to all town amenities, shopping and transportation. A western exposure bestows glorious sunsets, and sweeping views over the lake from virtually every room, as well as the stone patios, firepit area, private sandy beach and private dock. This home has an airy spacious feel, and is drenched in sunlight, thanks to the huge windows. Main level has a large open kitchen with stainless steel appliances, stone countertops, and roomy breakfast area, plus breakfast bar. Family/living/dining areas boast two fireplaces. Separate office too. Upstairs, the generously sized bedrooms include a fabulous primary suite with cathedral ceiling, balcony, huge dual closets, and spa bath. The oversized upstairs laundry center, large two car garage, and amply-sized unfinished basement offering upside potential complete the picture. Truly a rare find.
