About This Home

Wake up to the water every single morning. This waterfront home offers a rare connection to nature. Whether it's the icy stillness of a January shoreline, the golden haze of summer evenings on the dock, or the blazing foliage of a New England autumn reflected across the water, 864 South Rd offers a front-row seat to all four seasons from the comfort of your own home. A private dock and deck facing the sunrise invite long mornings with coffee, afternoons kayaking or casting a line, watching herons fishing, eagles flying and storms rolling in and out from your view windows. The side deck is an outdoor living room itself, shaded by a deck umbrella, a screen for privacy, and equipped with a gas grill for cookouts. Two kayaks with paddles plus a canoe are included which gives you direct lake access, an exterior fishing cabinet and fire pit add to the overall ambiance. Upstairs, a spacious private bedroom suite with a brand-new half bath serves as your personal retreat with water views. You'll enjoy a beautifully renovated kitchen, a new main bathroom, main level TV, full-size washer and dryer, and ample interior cabinet storage throughout. Climate is effortlessly managed year-round with ceiling mini-splits on every floor for efficient heating and cooling. The main floor and upstairs are also heated with a new propane hot water furnace & radiators. Downstairs, the finished daylight basement — a warm, wood stove-anchored space that creates a guest room, creative studio, home office, or whatever your vision calls for. Located in the welcoming Town of Ashby, you're just 15 minutes from commuter rail, downhill skiing, and miles of hiking trails.
