About This Home

As of June 2021

Location & Convenient yet Private. This well-maintained property is beautifully landscaped, w/ masonry & stone situated at the end of private road. This is better than a cul-de-sac. Being just over ½ mile form Essex Village you will enjoy the amenities of Essex just minutes from home. Visit the CT River Museum or lunch at the “Gris”, the Griswold Inn & restaurant that boast it is the oldest continually operated Inn & Restaurant in America. (The phone number ends in 1776). This is a great town for boaters as the yacht clubs are right down the road and the River leads to the Sound. You will have time & money to enjoy Essex’s amenities since your home will be low maintenance with a furnace and roof of 2016 vintage, and hot-water heater new in 2019. Sun fills the house in the morning and warms the natural hardwood floors while bringing light to the whole house. You will find a lot of efficiency in this home as it is very well insulated (check out the pull-down attic.) Also adding to the efficiency is the custom wood burning insert in the stone fireplace. The current owner said it warmed the whole house this past winter saving on propane use. Then just imagine this summer enjoying a BBQ on your spacious deck while watch deer and other wildlife prancing thought the trees. It has been a common occurrence. You will enjoy Essex and all it has to offer. Commuting is also easy since Route 9 is only a couple of minutes away and connects to both I-95 and I-91 directly.
