NextImg:Home Showcase: Groton home’s design highlights natural setting

Come summertime, beach retreats are going to get a lot of attention, but let’s save some love for the beloved lake house — especially one with year-round living possibilities. There’s a lakeside haven waiting at 22 Birchwood Avenue in Groton, one that’s just close enough to Boston to be an easy-to-escape-to weekend retreat or a serene home base.

The home packs more than 2,700 square feet into its adorable cedar-shingled package, and the outdoor possibilities are truly endless. Skating across Lost Lake in winter turns to kayaking in the summer and leaf-peeping in the fall next to a roaring fire pit.

Freshly painted and thoughtfully updated, the home’s open-concept layout is designed to highlight its spectacular natural setting. The modern kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a generous walk-in pantry. A cozy fireplace anchors the dining room, which flows effortlessly into a sunroom where a wall of windows captures panoramic lake views.

One level below, sleeping quarters and a living room share the first floor, with a deck and lake views adding sparkle and light throughout. On the third floor, a spacious bonus room is ready to become a playroom or family room. Step outside to enjoy your private beach, relax on the deck or patio, or explore the nearby trails that weave through Groton’s natural beauty, or the town’s picturesque Main Street.

Open house hours are Saturday, May 3 from noon to 1:30 p.m. and Sunday, May 4, from  12:30 p.m. to 2 p.m.

On the market for $849,900, the sale of the property is represented by Joelle Smith with Compass, 617-777-0347.
