    What's special

    Fall in love on the highest point and largest property on Lovers Lane. Chic mid-century ranch/cottage is set behind an historic stone wall on over one half of a private bucolic acre in the desirable University area of Fairfield. Enjoy one level living at its finest in this three bedroom home with hardwood floors and beautiful crown molding throughout. Entertain in the living room with wood-burning fireplace. Cook your favorite meal in the eat-in-kitchen with breakfast bar, recessed lighting, vinyl plank floors and spacious dining area. Luxuriate in the updated full bath with handmade Italian tile. Work from home in the partially finished dry lower level (included in sq ft). Escape from it all and commune with nature in the backyard with mature landscaping. One car detached garage and carport which can be used as an outdoor entertaining space or open air office! Less than 1 mile to train, 95 and shopping including Whole Foods. Wonderful walkable neighborhood. Newer windows. Newer 50 year architectural roof. City Water and Sewer. Expansion possibilities. (See Addendum) From Homeowner: “When I fell in love with and bought the sweet, custom-built ranch at 203 Lovers Lane in the summer of 2004, I had no idea that 16 years later we would be facing a global pandemic. Nor did I imagine that the bucolic, park-like and private property of more than half an acre upon which the house sits, would become my panacea and my peace. A place to safely exercise, garden, listen to the birds and commune with nature. A place for children to play and dogs to run around the amazing fenced-in back yard. This sweet house and beautiful property occupy the largest lot, at the highest point of Lovers Lane, all while being in an ideal location and close to so many things. Proximity to Whole Foods makes grocery delivery almost instantaneous, and you are within walking distance to parks, the metro train station, schools and I-95. And while we are not in a pandemic any longer, the privacy, serenity and wildlife that the yard supports, the charm, comfort and one-floor living that the home provides, and the superb location that cuts time off of any commute are what make this home truly special. You will not find another house like this in Fairfield. Decorating trends come and go but a well-built home, land, location and peace of mind never go out of style. Visit inside to see the crown moldings, hardwood oak floors, brick living room fireplace and handmade Italian tile bathroom. The lower level offers a playroom, laundry room and tons of storage. It's a tremendous house and yard! See you soon!”
