Quintessential Connecticut country home! Be enveloped by the warmth and comfort that is 5 Christopher Road. Flowering shrubs, blooming perennials and a welcoming firepit greet your arrival. Enter into a kitchen/great room that just begs for gathering around in all seasons with its center island, walls of windows and a cozy fireplace. The open and spacious living room boasts a bay window perfect for plants and seasonal displays. Hours will be spent in the sitting area curled up in a favorite chair reading a book or gazing at the wonders outside. If formal dining is what you seek, this area can serve many purposes. Two bedrooms and a "Pottery Barn" marble bath can be found just down the hall. Turn this into a main level primary suite if that is the desire. Upstairs there are three additional bedrooms, including the primary bedroom with an oversized bathroom, sitting area and numerous closets. The other two bedrooms are private and spacious. The property is spectacular in all year round. The open & mostly level land allows for gardens and lots of play space. There may even be a pool site! And the bonus for this home? Private, homeowner association access just down the road to Mamanasco Lake. This home is one of 20 that share a lakefront space with a dock where you can keep a canoe or kayak or enjoy a lakeside BBQ. Convenient location in town puts you minutes from shopping & schools (perfect when your high schooler is running late). Quiet road is great for biking or walking.
