201 Cedar Swamp Rd, Mansfield, CT 06268

Lovely open flow and layout in this house. The ground level floor includes a front room, kitchen and breakfast nook. The front room has a high ceiling with a ceiling window and bay windows that face the front yard. One wall in the front room is lined in wooden custom built shelves and cabinets. The kitchen was remodeled after knocking out a dividing wall to create a more open area between the kitchen and breakfast nook for cooking and entertaining with custom wooden cabinets and drawers. A white enamel chef's sink by Kohl sits under a window that looks out onto the wooded back yard. The counters are charcoal colored granite. The stove is gas with quiet high performance Air King stainless steal fume hood above it. A double doored stainless steel refrigerator is set into the wall next to a custom built pantry. The breakfast nook has a wide view of the back yard, thanks to a recently installed a set of Anderson wood-framed sliding glass doors. One set of stairs leads to the top level where there are three separate rooms, two bathrooms and a linen closet. All rooms have wood floors and Anderson windows and built in closets that were part of the original home. The master room is large with two windows facing the front yard and another facing the side yard. The middle room makes an excellent child's room or large office. It has two large windows facing the side of the house. The third room is a corner room with windows facing the side and back yard areas. A second set of stairs leads downstairs to an entertainment room that has a large brick fireplace made of recovered antique bricks and stone. The chimney cover is new. The downstairs area has a hallway leading to a fourth room on the back corner of the house that has custom built in wooden shelves. Since the last purchase, the second linen closet has been converted into a third bathroom so that guests staying in the downstairs bedroom area could have more privacy. This downstairs hallway also has a door and stairway leading to the basement with washing machine, dryer, a water filter system to filter the well water and a water heater. The back patio is recently rebuilt. The front yard has a small pond that is just big enough for children to ice skate on during the winter when it freezes over and come Spring is full of frogs singing at night. A new well pump was installed along with an inside water reserve and a new water heater and the roof was replaced. The neighborhood is great for walking, running, biking. This home is on a bike path that joins two bike paths running through and behind the University of Connecticut campus. The school system is fabulous! The Mansfield school district is outstanding for education at all levels. They have an advanced mathematics program, excellent music and choral groups, soccer, model United Nations and a ski club that takes high schoolers up to ski on Fridays. The school system alone makes this home incredibly valuable. This home is a wonderful place to raise children and to entertain guest.
