About This Home

As of July 2018

Cheerful and classic, this Connecticut cape is on a quiet street with walk to train and shopping. Generously sized formal rooms including a gentle wide arch opening to the dining room and to the private screened porch present a very spacious, open feeling to the sunlit interior. An eat-in kitchen and three bedrooms and two full baths make living so easy... The basement offers great extra playroom space and wonderful backyard is another plus!
