16 Blake St, Ivoryton, CT 06442

16 Blake Street is perfect for a starter home! This farm house is an adorable, three-bedroom, antique home located in the Village of Ivoryton, part of the historic town of Essex - once famously dubbed, "The Perfect Small American Town." This home was built in 1900 by the famous piano maker, Comstock & Cheney, Co. In 1999, the current owners built an addition onto the back of the house, creating a master bedroom suite and a large, inviting living room with an over-sized fireplace on the first floor. The master bedroom has dark Brazilian Cherry floors and bathroom with a shower. The other full bathroom offers a soaking, claw foot tub. The second floor also has two small bedrooms and a walk-up staircase to the attic space which could be finished in the future.The first floor features an open floor plan with the kitchen open to the dining area and the family room. All of these rooms flow into the added living room which is surrounded by glass doors and windows which invite sunlight and sky views into the home. Step outside onto your wrap around deck, and grill or lounge while looking over the backyard garden area. A small, charming barn is waiting to be restored and is the finishing touch on this sweet property!
