Spectacular ranch home at the end of a quiet road minutes to UConn's Storrs campus. This home sits back on a secluded 2.5 acre lot with fenced gardens, 12x16 garden shed, fish pond, greenhouse, 2-car garage & flat driveway. A wood deck with a pergola wraps the front of the house making a beautiful entrance and faces the vast garden area with pathways and an outdoor dining area. When using the side entrance you walk into a tiled mudroom area with a laundry closet & half bath. The "Pinterest worthy" kitchen has custom wood cabinets, open shelving, quartz counters, tile backsplash, a one of a kind rustic farmhouse island, exposed brick & a built-in desk. Opposite the kitchen is the living room with a wall of windows overlooking the wooded lot and down onto the fish pond. The interior focal point is an impressive stone fireplace surrounded by built-in shelves. The formal dining room is easily accessible from the kitchen and leads you into the 3-season sunroom through French doors. Down the hall are 3 bedrooms & full bath. The lower level has potential for an in-law, guest suite or studio apartment with a separate entrance. This space includes a family room with woodstove, bedroom, kitchenette & full bathroom. A 5th bedroom or office is on the other side of the staircase. The unfinished area has a utility room & workshop. New septic in 2010. Central air. Other updates include: insulation added in the walls, new chimney liner, new water heater, flooring in the lower level & more!
