    A unique home in the sought-after Charter Ridge neighborhood is bigger than it appears, four amazing large bedrooms including a massive first floor master and an additional bonus room, it’s like five bedrooms for a tax bill of four! Originally built in the 1950s & creatively expanded as a builder’s own custom residence in the 1990s with large open main floor rooms including a sunken living room with a wood-burning fireplace & wall of windows, an open kitchen family room, library of built-ins & a wet bar, a huge activity room, a jetted soaking tub bath, and an airy workout room. Storage abounds with a breezeway, easy-access floored attics, and unfinished basement. A deck encloses a safe backyard and the inground pool includes a shed of equipment and chaises for a staycation every day. Working from home? Noises from the entertainment areas won’t disturb your calls with this layout. Bucolic views of a horse property and deep woods in the back provide a sense of privacy while still being so close to the amazing Newtown community: beautiful historic main street, parks/playgrounds, town beach, town center and community center surrounded by paved trails, and so many community activities. Lower Paugussett State Forest trail heads in the neighborhood lead to the Prydden waterfalls and the shores of Lake Zoar. Quick access to main roads for easy travel to NYC (60 mi.), southern Fairfield County, Hartford, New Haven, and Danbury. Make an appointment to see this unique property yourself.
