Welcome to your perfect getaway at Lake Hayward-a beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 1-bath seasonal home offering stunning lake views and access to one of East Haddam's most sought-after lake communities. The property offers access to four private beaches, tennis and pickleball courts, along with swimming, fishing, and boating, providing all the perks of lake living without the upkeep of direct waterfront ownership. Inside, you'll find a warm and inviting atmosphere with beautiful wood paneling, hardwood floors, and a cathedral ceiling that adds volume and light to the main living space. An original stone fireplace adds timeless character, and a loft area offers flexible space for an additional sleeping area or storage. Enjoy meals in the spacious dining area, or step into the brand-new screened-in porch-perfect for relaxing summer evenings. The two-tiered deck is ideal for entertaining, complete with picturesque lake views. The exterior features new vinyl cedar-style shake siding, and the driveway provides parking for up to four vehicles. A dehumidifier in the basement ensures the space stays fresh and dry throughout the season. Whether you're looking for a summer escape or envision converting it for year-round enjoyment, this Lake Hayward gem offers charm, comfort, and a vibrant lake community lifestyle.
