29 Bankside Trail

Direct lakefront on Lake Zoar - 180 feet of private frontage, two docks, and water views from every room. $4,500 unfurnished; fully furnished at $4,950. The property terraces to the water: an upper deck for the long view, with raised beds for tomatoes and herbs, a covered stone patio below that stays dry in any weather, a lower deck at the water's edge, and a fire pit by the docks. A canoe stays with the house. In summer people boat out to the sandbar to swim. Eagles, ospreys and swans work this stretch of the lake; in a cold winter it freezes over and people ice fish. Rebuilt in 2016: 2,976 square feet across four levels. Bamboo floors, tile in the kitchen, radiant-heated flagstone on the lower level and radiant heat in the master bath. The master suite takes its own floor: an arched wi ndow over the water, a sitting area, walk-in closet with built-ins, and a freestanding soaking tub beneath a window of its own. The lower level works as its own suite - bedroom, full bath, living room, and three sets of French doors onto the covered patio and the water. Four levels means real separation: guests, or anyone keeping different hours, can have their own end of the house. Zoned heating and cooling on Nest thermostats. Fiber optic internet available. In-unit laundry, three parking spaces, smart lock. Minutes to I-84 and Sandy Hook Center; NYC about ninety minutes. Available Sept 15, flexible. Long-term lease up through June 2028. Non-smoking. Cats welcome; other pets c
