About This Home

Tucked back from a quiet country road in picturesque Higganum, this home isn't just a place to live-it's a place to breathe, recharge, and truly feel at home. From the moment you step onto the two-tiered deck overlooking a peaceful, tree-lined yard, you'll sense it: this is where memories are made. Mornings with coffee and birdsong, evenings under the stars, laughter echoing from summer dinners on the deck. An outdoor shower adds a dash of simple luxury-perfect after a hike or for rinsing off your pup after a backyard romp. But the beauty isn't just outside. Inside, this warm and welcoming Colonial features wide-plank wood flooring, exposed beams, and two fireplaces that add instant character. The heart of the home is the family room, where a cozy hearth and sliders to the deck create a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The remodeled kitchen features granite countertops, timeless cabinetry, and a layout that opens to the formal dining room-perfect for hosting everything from weeknight dinners to holiday feasts. A spacious living room offers another cozy gathering spot, and the main-level bedroom or office adds flexibility to fit your lifestyle. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms continue the charm, including a primary suite with its own full bath. Peace of mind comes with updates including a new oil tank and a brand-new leaching field to be installed. If you're searching for a home that blends tranquility, charm and thoughtful updates-this is the one. Come see why life feels better
