Our Take

8 Windmill Lane is a re-designed contemporary colonial in Trumbull’s historic Nichols area, set in a quiet cul-de-sac enclave. Inside, a two-story foyer with marble flooring opens to formal living and dining rooms. The family/great room combines a cathedral ceiling, natural fieldstone fireplace, balcony, glass walls, natural light, and sunset views. A chef’s kitchen includes a Viking stove/cooktop, abundant cabinetry, built-ins, granite countertops, and a dining area. The home also offers a second-floor primary bedroom with office, fitted walk-in closets, sunroom, deck, and roof garden.
