Description

Lovely Split Level home is nicely sited on 1.30 acres. There are attractive plantings, a koi pond, and a sense of privacy. While there is no garage there appears to be room to add on to the east side of the home. There is a shed for lawn mower and bike storage. The asphalt shingle roof is newer and some of the windows are thermopane including a dramatic triple glazed living room picture window. Inside there are hard wood floor on the main level and in all three bedrooms. The current owner is an artist/woodworker and the custom details in the house are special. The living room as a fireplace with insert and the detailed wood mantle is attractive. The dining room is nicely sized and has sliders to the back patio. The kitchen has been completely remodeled with custom cabinets, soapstone counters, all stainless-steel appliances including a deep double sink. With two skylights the space is very bright. There are half walls between the kitchen and both the dining room and living room which gives an open and modern feel. The pantry closet is in the hall. Upstairs there are three bedrooms including the primary bedroom with private ensuite bath with a custom tiled shower. The hall bath also has a custom shower. On the lower level there is a spacious family room, an office (which could easily be used as a guest room) a full bath and laundry. There is direct access to the back yard. The unfinished basement has great storage and workshop space. The access to the attic is via a skuttle in the upstairs hall. This home is awaiting a new owner who will delight in the custom features. Conveniently located near Rt 81, Middletown, Hartford and the Shoreline are easily accessible.
