About the Home

Located in Sandy Hook's Shady Rest community, this home features a private dock, boat launch and lower-level storage space for kayaks, paddleboards and other water toys, with an exterior garage door for convenient access. The screened porch and spacious deck offer places to relax, dine outdoors or gather with family and friends. Whether you're boating, kayaking or simply enjoying the view, there are plenty of ways to spend time by the water.This 2,522-square-foot Cape offers a flexible floor plan with four bedrooms and three full baths. The open combination living and dining room features hardwood floors and a wood-burning fireplace. The oversized kitchen provides generous counter space, a large island with seating and two cooktops, double wall ovens, and a sink overlooking the backyard and Lake Zoar. The main level includes a bedroom, while upstairs you'll find the primary suite, two additional bedrooms and a flex space for an office, den, exercise or playroom. The home also has a one-car garage with interior access, a new roof and a dedicated connection for a portable generator. Whether you're looking forward to weekends on the water or making lake living part of your everyday routine, Sandy Hook Center is just minutes away, keeping you close to town and restaurants.
