Wonderfully located four-bedroom two bath antique looking home a short walk to a winery and a short ride to Foxwoods. Seasonal views of Amos Lake from second-floor master. While the age of the home is old the updates are awesome. Newer wood Pella Windows, a brand-new roof that keeps with the tradition of the look of the home.Updated kitchen with gas range! Fully applianced-nothing to buy! Shiny wood floors of a quality reminiscent of this era along with a family room fireplace.Finished lower level laundry room. Lots of outdoor storage including two detached garages. A very nice yard with an above ground pool for outdoor entertainment. This property is very clean with lots of interior updates and has been specially maintained for those who do not desire today’s cookie-cutter homes.This home should qualify for most, if not all government financing programs.
