  • Remarks Public Addendum: Adjacent to the dining area, a cozy sunken sitting room or office space offers lovely views of the yard. Towards the back of the home, you'll find a half bathroom, garage entrance, and a spacious utility/laundry room that leads out to the pool-this area has the potential for a bathroom addition as well. Around the corner, you'll discover the butler's quarters, featuring a private staircase leading to the second floor. Upstairs, there are four additional bedrooms, a spacious bathroom, and a walk-up attic with incredible potential! The basement provides ample storage, a workshop area, and what appears to have once been a built-in bar. Outside, the property includes a chicken coop, fire pits, and plenty of space for a large garden or livestock. As you enter the driveway, you'll notice an abandoned building owned by the State. This property benefits from low taxes and is in need of updates and repairs, which is reflected in the asking price. Additionally, the property is surrounded by land owned by the State of Connecticut, specifically the Rose Hill Wildlife Area, offering abundant nature and the chance to observe over 20 bird species and local wildlife from your windows. You'll also find chestnut, apple, and black walnut trees on the property. The roof is brand new, and all kitchen appliances are less than a year old, including a Frigidaire Gallery refrigerator, Maytag dishwasher, and Frigidaire Gallery induction stove top oven. The septic was replaced in 2000. Please note that the sale is contingent upon the sellers finding suitable housing, as they are actively searching.
