About This Home

As of May 2023

Welcome to Paradise Green in Stratford! This lovely colonial home sits right in the center of where it all happens in town! You can walk to school, restaurants, the Farmer's Market on the Green, or to the Metro North (1.1 miles away) all while enjoying your fantastic home in this community-oriented neighborhood. This colonial features a front to back living room with fireplace and a totally separate first floor family room which means two distinct living spaces on the first floor. These rooms provide longer staying power for homeowners. The bedrooms are all upstairs and you have a bonus walk up attic for off season storage. The first floor also enjoys a "see through ability" from the dining room, through the kitchen (with breakfast bar for fast eating and sous-chef sitting to support the chef in your home) all the way to that family room! The family room has a slider to the rear deck which wraps around and has a gazebo (that stays) for summer evenings and weekend celebrations. The partially finished lower level features 2 separate spaces that are currently offices and can be whatever you need...a playroom or gym or even a crafting room. Any of these possibilities add to the overall living space. This home and neighborhood has been enjoyed and loved dearly by these sellers. Memories are a plenty and ready for a lucky new buyer to create their own. Open Houses Sat & Sun this weekend. *There is a gas line available if a buyer wants to put in a gas stove and to use a gas dryer.
