About This Home

As of November 2025

Colonial Farmhouse with Acreage Bordering State Park - Unique Fixer-Upper Opportunity Nestled on 2.4 scenic acres, this one-of-a-kind Colonial Farmhouse offers direct access to a 1,700-acre state park with miles of hiking trails, a 44-acre lake stocked with game fish, and a 5-acre pond just 100 yards from the home. Located near I-91, I-95, Routes 5 & 15, and major universities including Yale, this property offers the perfect balance of privacy, nature, and convenience. Originally a working farm, the land includes mature hardwoods, stone walls, grape arbor, fenced pasture, multiple outbuildings (including barn, detached garage, and chicken coops), and a tree-lined meadow - ideal for gardening, homesteading, or a seasonal farm stand. The 3-bedroom, 1-bath home features hardwood floors, vintage detailing, Vermont Castings wood stove, custom pine wall finishes, antique farmhouse sink, stainless appliances, and a bonus darkroom in the full-height basement. Recent updates include a 200-amp electric panel with generator hookup, newer boiler, and premium vinyl siding (Utech) with Chicago-style windows. A contained house fire has left some cosmetic restoration needed (see attached state inspection form). No structural or electrical damage reported. Some siding, soffits, plaster walls, and a small roof section require repair. Perfect for those seeking character, land, and location with room to restore and expand. Zoned R-2 with potential for a second driveway. Walk to bus
