Immaculate Year-Round Lakefront-Charming cottage, swimming, boating, central air | House in Winchester
3 Bedroom House in Winchester
Charming, traditional cottage design fully renovated and modernized, located among the very best of locations at Highland Lake.
If you have rented cottages before at Highland Lake, you know that location on the lake makes a big difference. Our cottage is located on the favored east side of the lake, with best sunshine. It is located away from the boat traffic and boat wake waves, on a quiet cove open to the largest of the lakes bays. VERY nice swimming area for kids and adults, with shallow comfortable area for kids and deep are for grown-ups. It has the important things experienced visitors to our lake recognize.
If you are aesthetically minded, if you are looking for something particularly charming and special, you will love this Victorian era waterfront cottage totally restored from the ground up in 2016. If you are seeking a very nice spot on the lake, you will love this property. Canoe, Kayak, Sunfish Sailboat, and more to enjoy.
It is a Victorian beauty, but fully restored in 2016 to high standards. Toasty warm in winter with lower level radiant heated floor, air conditioned for summer.
Fully equipped kitchen, open-concept. We re-purposed original and vintage materials for this loved Victorian era cottage during our restoration. Every window and door has a story. Just ask us!
Easy to use gas fireplace. Great for crisp mornings.
Bedrooms include: one queen, one full and 2 bunks. Wake up in the queen and full bedrooms to sunrise on the lake. Also upstairs, is a comfortable reading area and desk, a full bathroom with a 2 person, fully tiled shower, while the downstairs bath has a new claw foot soaking tub.
Downstairs, you will find a fully equipped kitchen, full-sized fridge, dual-fuel stove (gas stove top/electric oven), dishwasher and apron farm sink. Guests can dine on the dining table or at the kitchen peninsula. We have an open concept kitchen/dining/living room area which opens, through french doors, onto a large deck, just steps from the lake front. Enjoy the gas grill and picnic table for afternoon BBQs and sunsets for a lovely evening dinner party.
Bring your boat or jetski and tie up at our lakefront dock in front of the cottage. This lake is great for swimming, boating, water-skiing and fishing. Private lawn and water front. Sunny side of the lake. The cottage is close to "the Secret Spot",' (shallow area great for small children to play in the water). We live next door to the cottage. We live next door, if you need help with anything. Our boat is parked on the south side of the dock in front of our place, your boat, if you bring one, is docked on the right north side directly in front of your cottage.
Our area offers wonderful restaurants and grocers using locally produced food, Farmer's Markets (don't miss Litchfield's Saturday Farmer's Market!), the Gilson Cinema/Cafe, Antiquing, nearby fly-fishing, hiking, and biking. Stop in at a local farm for just picked corn or tomatoes, or an after dinner ice-cream cone.
For anyone up for a Berkshires experience, we are less than a one hour, country drive from Tanglewood, Shakespeare and Co Stockbridge, Great Barrington, Lenox, and the Outlets at Lenox.
During the summer, we request a minimum 7 day booking, Saturday to Saturday. Also, we cannot accommodate pets, due to potential allergies of renters. However, there is a highly respected kennel close to the other side of the lake.
Of course, it's great in the summer, but fall and winter offer their own special activities. Fall leaves, apple picking, hay rides and pumpkin patches in the country. Winter snow, skiing, flannel sheets and cozy fires. Our cottage can comfortably accommodate all seasons!
