Property Description
Offer Deadline: Mon., 8/31 @Noon! Tucked away in the center of Avon, this 1940 cutie is anything but ordinary! A quirky, wonderful cape, it's been updated through the years to bring in plenty of "modern" while preserving the charm of its ties to the 1930s & 1940s, when Secret Lake was developed as a beach community where families could summer to escape the heat before AC was invented. No problem now: this home has mini-split heat pumps for heating & cooling, along with 7 zones of elec. heat to assist if temps get too frigid! This is a spectacular RANCH ALTERNATIVE w/a large ensuite main-floor bedroom! Up the Shaker staircase is another large bedroom with a 1/2-bath offering flexibility for family or guests. In between is a handsome living room with cedar accents (non-operable fireplace), an intimate dining room & a bright kitchen w/authentic exposed brick, all protected by a 2022 ROOF! Generous .23 acre lot is private & perfect for gardening; COVERED back patio allows for entertaining during summer storms! Oversized 1-car garage w/newer doors has space for kayaks, bikes, mower & garbage cans! WALK TO THE BEACH where you can enjoy members-only access to Secret Lake for swimming & kayaking! Near everything you need: WALK TO THE SHOPPES AT FARMINGTON VALLEY! Secret Lake is an association (not an HOA) w/dues of $425 annually covering snow-plowing of the roads, trash pick-up & lake insurance/maintenance. Public water & sewer. This is in a trust so there is only a lead disclosure.
