Cottage in Chester

Updated cottage "Beriozka" on Cedar Lake

Originally from Russia (hence the name “Beriozka” meaning Birch Tree) I live in Stamford CT. About 7-8 years ago I’ve discovered Chester/ Essex area and fell in love. I’ve been coming here during summer to enjoy river rides, during winter just to see snow on the ground of old towns and needless to say during fall – when all the beauty of nature unfolds. Then came an idea to have an own place here and when an opportunity came to buy this small cottage on Cedar Lake I’ve jumped on it.

An exterior view of the designer beach house is captured, showcasing its contemporary blue siding and multiple windows. A rooftop deck is visible, providing potential outdoor space. A grassy area is bordered by a white privacy fence, while neighboring structures can be seen in the background.
