About This Home
As of May 2025Beautiful area of Bethel within a short drive to downtown Bethel, Stony Hill or the Newtown flagpole! This 3rd generation property is ready for you to arrive and update it to your tastes. The dwelling sits amid large, "newer" homes that encompass parts of the original family land which totaled over 100 acres. Updated mechanicals include new furnace 2021, well tank 2004, oil tank 2022 (located in basement), roof in 2005 with 30 year shingle. Hardwood floors throughout and additional matching original hardwood on property to repair any damaged flooring. On main floor the living room overlooks a slate floor enclosed porch/sun room with beautiful views - great place for relaxing with coffee, book, etc. There is a coffee/kitchenette area (no stove of course) area on 2nd floor which could be a repurposed into a second primary bedroom suite (also has an exterior door which could probably have a private deck off the back of the house to further enhance the suite). The newer detached 2 car garage (9' garage doors only 2 years old) has a spacious room above offering so much potential. The basement is large (unfinished) but features a fireplace and an area that used to be a "root cellar" - If you are a hobbyist there is so much room to work and spread out your wares. Bring your ideas (we are honest in saying you will need them), roll up your sleeves and take this rare opportunity to repurpose this into your own style and your taste. Turn this into your beautiful home on the hill.
