99 Washinee Heights Road

Arrive at The Lake House and a profound sense of peace immediately washes over you. Situated on a quiet, exclusive street along the shores of Lake Washinee in Salisbury , this contemporary estate offers a truly private retreat. With 300 feet (+/-)of pristine water frontage, the property looks out over the quiet lake to the Taconic Range, offering spectacular, western-facing sunset views. It is a setting so serene that graceful swans are frequently seen gliding across the water, while the neighborhood itself remains incredibly peaceful, disturbed only by the occasional resident walking their dog. Inside, a dramatic entrance welcomes you into a breathtaking foyer that flows into an awe-inspiring living room. Built in 2003, the home's soaring post-and-beam architecture beautifully weaves the natural outside world into the interior. Natural light streams through an expansive wall of glass, illuminating the hardwood floors and built-in window seats. The perfect spot to settle in with a book on an autumn afternoon. A stone woodburning fireplace anchors the space, promising cozy winter evenings. This spectacular room transitions seamlessly into a formal dining room with high ceilings, and an expansive kitchen designed to maximize the sweeping views of the lake and mountain range. The main floor was thoughtfully designed to capture lake views from almost every room. It features a spacious primary en-suite bedroom that presents a wonderful opportunity to customize and expand to your exact vision. A second beautifully appointed en-suite bedroom on the main level also enjoys fabulous water views. The impressive finished lower level expands the living space dramatically, offering an expansive media room with lake views, a flexible home gym space, and an additional bedroom and full bath for guests. Stepping outside, a patio provides the ultimate entertaining space to take in the evening sunsets over the Taconic Range. The estate spans over three acres and features ample vehicle storage across two separate garages, including a detached frame garage added in 2007. Above this detached garage sits an unfinished space with approval for a half bath to be installed. A backup generator ensures modern convenience and peace of mind year round. The Lake House is truly a haven for those with discerning taste craving absolute privacy and a natural setting. While it feels entirely secluded between two of Litchfield County's most coveted lakes, you remain just moments away from the very best of the region. Whether you are seeking weekend skiing, world class hiking, boutique shopping, or notable local restaurants, this lakefront sanctuary offers an unparalleled Litchfield Hills lifestyle.
