It's March 25th. This is Hartford News Today, AI-powered stories from your city. I'm Corey with the story. A lakefront restaurant and four nearby cottages in Brookfield are now on the market for $6,750,000. The one-story restaurant sits right on Canada Wood Lake Road, while the cottages are just down the street on Kellogg Street. Brokers with Tower Realty are handling the sale of both the properties and the restaurant business. The car owners, siblings, Scott and Chris de Perente inherited the restaurant last year from their parents. Their late parents bought the restaurant's spot back in 1976 and turned it into a seasonal favorite that runs from May through. Mid-September, after decades of running the place through their entire adult lives, the siblings are ready to retire. They share the news on social media late last July, saying they plan to wrap up after the 2025 season. The county records show the restaurant building dates to 1920 and covers a small half-acre lot. The cottages, built in the 1930s and 50s, spread across more than two acres combined.
Officials value everything at about $1.79 million appraised and $1.25 million assessed. With the listing fresh, buyers interested in Lakefront Gems have a chance to carry on this local tradition into the next chapter.
