New England style capes are kind of rare in Orange, Ct. I am not sure why, mostly ranches were built in the 50's, especially in this price range! Beautiful grounds, pristine front porch with vinyl and wainscoting and an overall sense of "cozy" make the approach quite satisfying. Inside is as gracious as outside with flowing, oversized living room and dining room with handsome fireplace. A first floor den, the master bedroom (presently used as a large family room) are also visible from the entryway. Facing the back of the house is the kitchen, ready for new personal touches and a large breakfast room or sun porch that gives access to the first floor garage and backyard deck. The sunflowers and gardens, surrounded by private woods make this Orange home very desirable. The location is one minute to the Post Road, yet it is quiet and peaceful and the homes in the neighborhood are all different. A custom built area with colonials, ranches and private lots.Back to the garage, there is a pull down in this huge oversized garage that indicates a great possibility to extend the second floor, or simply build a room up above the garage!The second floor has two large bedrooms, one is ballroom size!! Each has a walk in closet and there is a generous landing in between and a full bath. With a full bath on each floor, this home is very well suited for a small or large family.The basement is a real treat. It it finished on one side with a huge family room, custom bar, built ins and fireplace. The oversized sectional furniture fits well here and whispers many a fine party has taken place. The mechanics are updated, the city water is a plus and you will be hard pressed to find a better value in town. The two thousand square feet does not include the sun porch nor the basement. Most of the windows are new and most of the home is hardwood flooring.
