    What's special

    This unique offering consists of a 2 bedroom, 2 full bath Cape style residence and a separate 3 room cottage. What sets this memorable property apart from others is its stunning 12 acres with sweeping lawns, 2 ponds, a meandering brook and the wooded privacy bordered in part by the 18+ acre Southbury Land Trust affording forever privacy. The main floor of the 1,100 square foot Cape residence has large windows, high ceilings, chestnut moldings and woodwork and consists of a living room with fireplace, a large dining room, an eat-in kitchen with abundant storage, and a sunroom with skylight and vaulted ceiling with amazing views of the pond. A full bathroom and enclosed porch complete the first floor. The upper floor has 2 good sized bedrooms, the 2nd full bath and an unheated storage room. New electrical panel 3/23 and new well coming 5/23. The 500 square foot cottage, (being sold in "as is" condition, as is the shed) could be your perfect studio, office or a separate guest retreat. If being a country farmer suits you, the expansive acreage has ample room for extensive gardens, a barn, paddocks and pens. If getting away from hectic city life is your dream, the large lawns can accommodate a potential pool or tennis court and total relaxation by the pond to enjoy the sights and sounds of Mother Nature. Located just 2 short hours from NYC and minutes to shopping and restaurants. If you are in search for a unique property, one you can put your personal stamp on, look no further. Appliances in both the main house and cottage are in "as in" condition. Please see Inclusion/Exclusion Addendum.
