Streaming sunlight warmed by wood floors, beams and paneling accentuates this reproduction dormered saltbox colonial set on a pretty country road in the Hadlyme district of East Haddam. Custom built by the owner builder, unexpected detail such as inset niches in the keeping room fireplace, arched brickwork above the kitchen range, a built-in hutch in the dining room, and built-in bookcases and desk in the family room delight the eye. Gorgeous brick fireplaces highlight the dining room, family room, master bedroom, with the massive kitchen fireplace taking pride of place. The charm of the historic is balanced by the most appreciated design elements for today's living, including a large master bedroom with en suite bath complete with a capacious walk in closet. The kitchen reflects today's Great Room approach for living combining cooking with everyday dining and sitting space. Fully wired, studded and plumbed for a full bath, with recessed ceiling lights already installed, the third floor offers an additional potential 450 square feet of living space. The 2nd floor is ducted for central air with air handlers in place needing only compressors and connections. This charmer makes a great year round home or a special weekend getaway. East Haddam offers an array of nature, cultural and sporting activities including hiking trails, both lake and CT River boating, tournament level golf at Fox Hopyard Golf Club, and nationally acclaimed theater at Goodspeed Opera House.
