About this home

Quiet, contemporary home set on almost 2 acres with a picturesque running stream. Natural setting with indigenous plantings and park-like setting. Natural stone paths and old stone walls with historical feel. Bedrooms are small but three of them have 2nd story lofts. Beautiful south-facing green house attached to main living area with lots of sliding doors allow for tons of natural light. This house was the original, 1st solar house in CT but has since been converted. Significant amount of insulation make heating bills very reasonable. Needs some elbow grease and a little TLC but this is a nice place to live and in a great setting.
