Pristine Lake and Unfettered Views- Sale or Rent

Set atop one of the highest points in Kent this spacious and sun-filled house has privacy, lake access and 50 mile views. Four private suites provide wonderful comfort while the open floor plan allows for family fun.

 Views to the southeast, south and southwest are seen from the house and the pool.  All of southern Litchfield County is in this view shed. The farm fields of Kent Hollow Valley and the shimmering of Lake Waramaug are spied from this vantage point.

This 5000 square foot home is spacious and comfortable.  The master suite is located on the main level to the far left in this photo with views, access to the deck and hot tub.

South Spectacle Lake is one of the cleanest lakes in Connecticut.  Sensitive setback regulations and conservation minded development have preserved the integrity of this lake. No motor boats are aloud on the lake. With depths over 35 feet the lake support considerable fish life.  Canoe into the coves, swim off the floating dock, lounge on the sandy beach,  play a match of tennis or use the recreational cottage for parties.  Built on a former children's camp the lake and it's facilities harken back to the days of sleep away camps!

Bruce Adams hands out the checks to the LaFontans on his right and the Crafts on his left.


The Kent Lion's Club hosted the recipients of this year's College Scholarship Awards at the Club's monthly meeting on Wednesday, January, 14th at the Bull's Bridge Inn.  Olivia LaFontan, daughter of Maria and Vincent LaFontan;  and Laura Craft, daughter of Dennis and Erica Craft, each received a check for $1,250.00 to help them with the cost of tuition (the checks are made out to the schools).  Olivia spoke to Club about her first semester at UConn in Storrs, where she is in the Nursing program, a very selective major that admits only 100 students out of 3,000 applicants.   Dennis Craft read a letter from Laura, who was already back at school.  She is in a Pre-Medical  program at Allegheny College in Meadville, PA.  All the Club members were quite impressed with the accomplishments of both of the young women chosen to receive the annual award.
   
The Kent Lion's Club College Scholarship Award was established 20 years ago for any upcoming graduates from HVRHS who live in Kent, and are planning to further their education at any accredited college, university or technical school, are eligible for the scholarship.
