You'll feel right at home in this exceptionally well-maintained property, set on 3.5 private acres in idyllic Lyme, CT. Built in 2001, this custom contemporary colonial offers much sought after first floor living - with a spacious primary suite, kitchen, dining room, laundry room, and two powder rooms - all located on the first floor. The eat-in kitchen is a lovely space to entertain, with Amish-made custom cherry cabinetry, stainless appliances, a beverage cooler, quartz countertops, and a double-sided propane fireplace. The living room is spacious and bright, reminding you just how comfortable this home is to enjoy. On the second floor, two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom are connected by an open balcony hallway, with space for a small library or study. The detached barn is charming, yet functional, with ample room for a vehicle or workshop. Above the barn is an unfinished walk-up loft with vaulted ceilings - brimming with potential for an additional finished space - perhaps a gym or studio. Rock outcroppings and meandering stone walls once used to define pastures are scattered throughout the yard, giving the illusion of a "sculpture garden" created by none other than Mother Nature. Vinyl shake siding, perennial gardens, and a south-facing front porch round out the exterior features. You'll feel the warmth the moment you step into this cheerful home!
