Step into the past to this much loved country style home. Built in 1920, full of character, special touches and many happy memories! Original features include a little brick smoke house in the yard, and in the basement the remains of wine making from years gone by! This sweet home sits quietly back from the road with gated drive leading to the very private tall treed .46 acre, leaving lots of space for a pool, great space for the kids and dogs to run plus room for family gatherings and entertaining. The country kitchen has a concrete breakfast bar, new ss appliances, and full bath with tall ceilings, bead board and lovely blue wall color. The formal dining room is so perfect for entertaining or just family dinners while enjoying the warmth and coziness of the fireplace. Then retreat to the spacious living room with two porches on each side. One porch is heated, offering wood floors, wainscoting, plus the sun pours through the wall of wavy antique glass windows. A very special little room! Since so many people are now working from home, there is another "nook" on the 1st floor. A perfect little office, tv room, library etc. There are three bedrooms on the second floor, wood floors, several charming original built ins, full bath with claw foot tub and walk up attic with lovely old windows. A full basement with laundry and one car detached garage complete this home. Very conveniently located, close to Darien line, Rowayton and SONO train, shopping, the beach, and downtown SoNo!
This is a short sale.This home is being sold in "AS IS" condition. However, the trade off is worth it! With all of the "specialness" of this house, there is a bit of exterior deferred maintenance that could be addressed, 2nd floor a/c not working. Otherwise this is a very well maintained home. This is "That Charming Green Colonial on Flax Hill Road"!
