Discover the potential of this rare riverfront property on quiet Manor Road in Southbury. Set along the river leading directly into Lake Zoar, this unique offering includes a single-family home plus a separate waterfront outbuilding-perfect for entertaining, studio space, or future renovation ideas. The main house offers solid bones and a classic layout, but does need repair after a tree impacted the roof. Ideal for investors, contractors, or buyers looking to build instant equity, this home is priced with the work in mind. Septic and well tests have already been completed and passed, giving buyers peace of mind on the major systems. Step down toward the water and you'll find the second building overlooking the river-an incredible spot to host friends, set up a workshop, or create your own retreat with direct access to nature. With frontage along the river, a quiet street, and access to Lake Zoar just downstream, properties like this rarely come to market. Bring your vision, roll up your sleeves, and turn this into the waterfront getaway or year-round home you've been waiting for.
