About this home
Talk about CURB APPEAL!! This "pretty as a picture" immaculate, move-In-ready and well maintained Split Level Home in very desirable neighborhood on a quiet country road is the PERFECT retreat. Quintessential country living less than 3 miles to town!! Freshly painted interior, new carpet, 3 season enclosed sun porch on level, lightly wooded 1.12 acres that backs up to Cockaponset State Forest affords stunning views and access to hiking/nature trails, and plenty of privacy. Enormous lower level family room with handsome wood paneling and ceiling, wet bar (perfect for entertaining), and wood stove to ensure winters remain warm and cozy. Some updates needed, but great opportunity for buyers to make it their own! Beautiful hardwood floors and great use of living space make this a MUST SEE home. LOW TAXES are a bonus! Plenty of time to move in and experience all the FUN the shoreline has to offer this summer! Close to I-95, schools, beaches, restaurants and easy commute to New Haven/New London/Middletown.
