45 Reilly Rd, Easton, CT 06612

This desirable contemporary colonial, in a sought-after neighborhood, lower Easton, is situated at the end of a quiet cul de sac, nestled upon a lovely hill. The long sweeping front lawn and driveway lead up to the spectacular stone front entrance. It opens into a dramatic two-story foyer highlighting a marble floor and large contemporary style Palladian window. This home, with hardwood floors throughout the first floor and cascading upstairs, features french doors into the formal living room with a fireplace and brass surround, a formal banquet-sized dining room, eat-in kitchen adjoining a spectacular spacious great room with cathedral ceiling, and stone fireplace. This special 9-room home, built in 1987, has 4 bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths. The master suite is expansive and the fourth bedroom located on the first floor makes a terrific in-law/guest suite, or home office/library. This 3652 square foot home expands another 400 square feet with a partially finished basement, walking out into a two car garage. The property sits on one acre, with a sunny backyard and deck off the kitchen. Setting farther back, the tree lined property is a private nature sanctuary, with a small brook bordering the property at back and side of property. This home is well maintained, offering a modern lifestyle, privacy in rural setting, yet very convenient to Merritt Parkway less than two miles away. One of a kind in this price range -- a must see!
