About This Home

As of January 2025

An entrance that speaks of sophistication and a gateway to a retreat. This 1989 contemporary is sited to capture the best light, with gleaming hardwood floors and two-story granite stone fireplace inside the passive solar living room with bluestone floors, wood vaulted ceiling, skylights, and 9-foot Marvin folding door with pull out screen that brings the outside in year-round. The open plan allows the cook to be part of the party. A large kitchen with hardwood floors, granite counter and contemporary tile from counter to ceiling and lots of storage. First floor has an additional area of 2 bedrooms, new bath and laundry closet. Second floor has 2 bedrooms. Primary bedroom has a stone fireplace, vaulted wood ceiling and over looks the living room with woodland garden views and an updated adjacent bath. Outside is professionally landscaped with rebuilt stone steps, built-in stone fire pit and lower field. Steps away from the main house is a studio with separate utilities, vaulted ceiling, skylight, picture window and small porch. Facing the driveway, a barn with four stalls, electricity, wash stall, and a lofted main level to keep feed with a trap door for hay could be used as a large workshop. Outside the barn is the former paddock area. This stunning home is situated on 5+ private acres a short walking distance to nature preserves and hiking trails. A library, schools, Hamburg Cove are close by. Easy drive from Old Lyme and 1-95, halfway between New York and Boston.
