Tucked away in Stoddard, along a private road at Highland Lake, a unique 3-bdrm, 3-bath contemporary post-and-beam home offers a destination lifestyle centered on lake living, privacy, and gathering spaces. With beach and lake access plus a deeded boat slip at the private dock, this property captures the feeling of a private New England escape designed for every season. Crafted with chateau-inspired architectural character, the home showcases soaring ceilings, exposed beams, dramatic lines, and expansive windows that draw the wooded surroundings indoors. Carlisle Ash wide-plank flooring spans the first level, adding warmth, texture, and timeless appeal throughout the living spaces. The 2018-remodeled kitchen blends design with functionality, featuring quartz countertops, a beadboard center island, a double-oven stainless gas stove, prep space, and seamless flow for entertaining. Whether hosting weekend guests or quiet evenings at home, the adjoining gathering spaces create an atmosphere that feels refined and welcoming. Both the family room and great room are anchored by stone fireplaces, while a wood stove adds warmth and ambiance through every season. A custom bar area with cool storage creates the perfect setting to gather after a day on the lake. The private primary ensuite loft overlooks the living space below and serves as a peaceful retreat. Two bonus spaces offer flexibility for guests, office space, fitness, media, or creative use.
Outdoor living is equally impressive, with approximately 1,000 square feet of mahogany decking designed to take advantage of the secluded wooded setting. The hot tub enjoys its own spa-like room, offering a relaxing escape year-round. Pear and cherry trees enhance the property’s natural beauty and retreat-like atmosphere. This is a lifestyle property where mornings begin on the deck, days are spent on the lake, and evenings end beside the fire.
