Welcome to your very own private retreat sited on 3 beautiful acres with lush lawns and fruit trees! Located at the end of the road and walking distance to the village, country club, town hall, schools, and library, this enchanting antique (c. 1690) gambrel is bigger than it looks and has peek-a-boo views of the CT River. Spacious and bright, the main floor offers wide plank wood floors throughout, a formal living room, dining room with original paneling, and an updated eat-in kitchen to host family gatherings. Also great for entertaining is the large family room/library with a wood burning fireplace, built-in bookshelves, and multiple desk areas. Step outside on the stone patio with a stone pizza oven for making homemade pizzas while dining al fresco on those warm summer nights! Finishing off the main floor is a converted office/BR, full bath, laundry closet, and mudroom with access to the newly built deck where you can enjoy the beautiful sunsets from your backyard. Upstairs is the large primary bedroom ensuite surrounded by windows with views of the expansive backyard. Three more bedrooms and a full bath plus reading nook complete the second floor. Need additional workspace? Utilize one of the two barn style garages to store lawn equipment and tools. There's also a sauna in the garage! Looking for antique charm but with modern amenities, this is it! This idyllic country home is minutes to I95 and two hours to Boston or NYC. At first look, you will want to call this Home!
