This lovingly maintained home on a serene 7-acre lot offers privacy, beauty, and easy access to nature. The property features a 2-car attached garage, plus a spacious 28x30 detached garage set back from the road with a newer driveway, perfect for storage, hobbies, or workshop needs. Inside, the entire upstairs boasts hand-scraped Acacia solid hardwood flooring, adding warmth and elegance to all bedrooms. The primary suite includes a walk-up attic, providing additional storage or potential for future expansion.      On the main floor, enjoy the convenience of first-level laundry, and in the lower level, a walkout basement with the Owens Corning system, complete with enhanced soundproofing, provides a versatile finished space for recreation or relaxation. The cozy family room, featuring a wood-inset fireplace and sliders to the deck, is ideal for gathering and entertaining.   Equestrian-friendly, this property also allows for horses (check local zoning). The front guest bedroom has a unique feature: closet access to the area over the garage, which could be finished to add even more living space. Directly across from Bulkeley Hill Preserve, a 120-acre land trust with scenic hiking trails, this home is a nature lover's dream. The boiler was replaced in 2012, and a new burner was installed in 2022, making this property move-in ready for its next owner. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a beautiful retreat with a blend of practical amenities and natural beauty!
