About This Home

As of March 2023

Lovely, light and spacious upper floor ranch-style unit w. vaulted ceilings, wood-burning fireplace and custom built-ins. Sliders in the LR/Great Room open to a generous-sized deck (to be replaced in 2023) overlooking a peaceful, lightly wooded hillside. A complete kitchen remodel was performed in 2020, including custom cabinety w marble backsplash and granite countertops, recessed lighting, LED under-cabinet lighting and a new stainless refrigerator. A new hot water was installed in 2019, and 2018 updates include new wall-to-wall carpeting throughout, new kitchen appliances - stainless range w. microwave hood and dishwasher - and all new windows. In addition, the current owner has just installed new flooring in the kitchen/dining areas and has provided freshly cleaned rugs and many newly painted surfaces throughout for the next owner of this well-maintained property. The primary bedroom features an updated (2018) ensuite bath and vaulted ceilings w. skylights. The second bedroom is perfect for guests or office w. good closet space. There is a hall bath, plus laundry and access to the large/private attic for storage. Kingswood features a beautifully landscaped pool area w. pool house and bath. The complex is "tucked away" on the Norwalk/Wilton border and offers easy access to I-95, Route 7 and the Merritt Parkway, as well as shopping and restaurants.
