A renovated kitchen with granite countertops features hardwood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and breakfast bar. Skylights, built-ins and architectural detail delight throughout.

Just 1-1/2 hours from New York and Boston right on the Deep River, Essex line this is an idyllic setting to be enjoyed as a year-round home or a weekend retreat.
