Nestled in a natural setting, this majestic, five bedroom, 4095 sq ft colonial, is a welcome retreat providing tranquility and comfort. The southern exposure fills the living room and dining room with wonderful natural light. The updated kitchen with breakfast nook and commercial appliances, is a joy to cook in and enjoy casual meals. The family room offers a more rustic feel with its barn board walls, built-in bookcases and wood-burning fireplace. Treat yourself to a first floor primary suite with gas fireplace, large walk-in closet and full bath including a steam shower and jacuzzi tub. The wide staircase in the front foyer leads to the four additional bedrooms, all with walk-in closets, and a sizable full bath with tub and shower stall. There is plenty of accessible storage in the two walkup attics. The interior has been re-painted, hardwood floors refinished, and second floor carpeting replaced. Never worry about a power outage again with the automatic generator! The in-ground pool, although in need of repair, is gracefully set in the rocky landscape with a bluestone patio and cabana in a fenced-in area. Native Mountain laurel and granite outcroppings help create a no-frills, natural landscape. Located in the Colonial Village Association, an enclave of fine homes steps from Cockaponset State Forest. You can enjoy the surrounding nature or travel a short distance to access the CT River at Haddam Meadows State Park or visit the theater at the close-by Goodspeed Opera House.
