WELCOME to 79 Depot Hill Road! This 2002 three bedroom Cape home has hardwood floors throughout the first and second floors and classic, crown molding in the main rooms. The first floor, filled with natural light has a "front to back" living room, large enough for day to day living and perfect for entertaining. The dining room, also generous in size, has wainscoting, adding that traditional feel. The beautifully renovated kitchen complete with stunning dark cabinetry and granite countertops, has a center island, SS appliances, tiled backsplash and pendant lighting. Immediately adjacent to the kitchen is a wonderfully private deck with a canopy of trees and stars. Back inside the stairs lead to the second floor which has three bedrooms and a full bath. The lower level is a walkout, and though unfinished, is well utilized with its various areas. This 775 square feet has a TV/game area, laundry area, a dedicated space with a workbench for the new homeowner and still more space for storage! The yard, both front and back, is private and secluded in this cozy corner of Cobolt, CT. Just when all has been revealed, follow the path to the cabin on the property dating back to the forties. As it is technically located in Portland, this little gem entitles the residents to enjoy Great Hill Pond. Add swimming or kayaking to the local activities if not walking the nearby trails. This property has so much to offer, at last, WELCOME HOME!
