1 full acre in the New Preston area of Washington CT on quiet, bucolic Rabbit Hill Road! Cute cottage-style home built 1961 with 4 bedrooms, a small office, a large living room / kitchen combo, 1 full bathroom - 1376 heated square feet total. Like most cottages, this one has a crawl space, not a full basement. This home was once a single story 1 bedroom cottage; the 2nd story was added on but no dates on record. Heated with a freestanding propane stove in the living room, similar to a wood stove, no elec required - plug is for the blower which seller has never used. Propane tank and shed convey. This 2 story cottage needs a full cosmetic makeover: walls, ceilings, floors, bathroom and kitchen need updating. Some windows are newer vinyl, some are original. Well and septic have given seller/family no problems and they have always loved the delicious clean well water here. The septic is 750 gallons, probably from the days when the house was 1 story and only 1 bedroom. While small for a 4 bedroom house, it is sized for a 1-2 bedroom house and is at least not 350 gallons or 500 gallons used in older days. Lower ceilings: 7 feet on 1st floor and upstairs ceilings are 8.' The 3 bedrooms and small office room upstairs have heat via grates for hot air to rise from the 1st floor: maybe renovate the layout and open the upstairs to the downstairs and make an airy, contemporary re-do? Unpaved driveway. Elec is updated, new hot water heater, roof 2015, vinyl siding in great shape. Back on Market: 1st buyer was a wholesaler who couldn't sell the contract. Taxes $2034 for 2024-2025. Bring your imagination and renovation ideas. It's livable as is, but dated cosmetically and in need of updating! The beautiful combination of quiet country living with the sophistication of all that Litchfield County offers will be at your fingertips. Seller and their family remark that it's a wildlife enthusiast's dream - all the flora and fauna and quietude you seek is here.
