Read the full listing description
A very special property that is tucked away yet so close to town. This light-filled home sits on a private lane with over an acre of flat usable land. Here you will find the backyard that you have always dreamed of with lots of space for activities. Plus, at the end of the property, there is a scenic pond which is visited by ducks, egrets and great blue herons. It is so peaceful and so much fun to watch from either the deck (made with Cumaru aka Brazilian Teak hardwood) which is right off the kitchen or from the patio (sitting around the fire pit) in the yard. Brand new central air just replaced. This home has town water and sewer too! There is no basement so flooding is not an issue. There is plenty of storage! Inside you will find a large eat-in kitchen with granite countertops and high-end appliances, a spacious living room with a fireplace, a sunlit dining room with a bay window, and beautiful wide planked hardwood floors. Four bedrooms, three and a half baths, central air, front & back stairs, laundry on the 2nd floor, a four-year young roof, tons of storage, and a two-car attached garage. Walk into town and have dinner at our award-winning restaurants, shop at the one-of-a-kind stores, and enjoy the beauty of New Canaan. Excellent schools, fun parks, Olympic size town pool, and easy Metro-North access to NYC. Welcome home!
