2 Brinsmade Ln, Sherman, CT 06784

This extraordinary Cape sits upon nearly 3 acres in the pastoral town of Sherman. Originally built in 1742, the home was substantially expanded and renovated in 2002, creating a nearly new house for modern living, yet full of fun and character. The open floor plan, with plentiful windows, allows natural light to stream into each and every room. The delightful family room boasts impressive vaulted ceilings, large windows, and sliders that lead to an expansive wraparound deck overlooking the property's scenic pond. A gourmet kitchen is open to the dining room and family room, while also connecting to a striking sun room, where warmth can be enjoyed via the sun's rays shining through the curved glass enclosure or from the stone fireplace. The sun room also leads to an inviting living room, with built-ins, antique chestnut beams, paneled walls and stone fireplace. Also on the main level, is a stylish master bedroom suite, with a modern aura, and a further bedroom and bath. The upper level features two additional spacious bedrooms, full bath and a cozy office area with a dazzling skylight. Level, fenced in yard, and situated conveniently close to the quaint town center and all local amenities, including beach rights to the Sherman Town Beach on Candlewood Lake. Just 90 minutes to Manhattan and 15 minutes to Metro North trains.
