12 Field Crest Road is a bright, well-maintained Colonial offering the rare combination of walkability, convenience, and room to grow-just moments from downtown New Canaan, Metro-North, schools, and Waveny Park. The main level delivers an easy, everyday flow with a sun-filled living room and fireplace, a traditional dining room, and a renovated kitchen featuring updated appliances and crisp finishes. Just off the kitchen, a dramatic vaulted-ceiling great room is filled with natural light, creating a warm and inviting gathering space. A flexible playroom/office/den and a powder room complete the first floor. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a renovated bath and generous closet space, while three additional bedrooms share an updated hall bath. The unfinished lower level provides excellent potential for a gym, playroom, storage, or future finished living space. Outside, enjoy a level yard with deck and patio-ideal for play and entertaining-along with an attached garage, newer mechanicals, and thoughtful improvements throughout. A buried propane tank supplies gas to the generator, ensuring uninterrupted power during storms, and a gas line is already in place for future conversion or expansion (buyer to perform due diligence). A truly turnkey opportunity in a coveted in-town location where lifestyle, comfort, and convenience meet. Sellers looking to close late March/Early April 2026.
